Dear ShoulderDusters (Dress 8)

Dear ShoulderDusters,
You're kind of silly, and over-the top, but between a girl in my classes' Art Nouveau diary, and the tutor's earrings, I got some sort of strange costume.
(The piece to the left is the continuation of the back of the dress' 'top layer'. Detachable so that the bottom layer can be washed thoroughly, while the top layer is more slowly-delicately-hand-washed.) The piece to the right is a side-view.

I'm not sure what the costume is for, a personification of the moon or an elf of some sort.
All my love,

Dearest Metlink (Dress 3)

Dearest Metlink,
In the lull of the to-ing-and-fro-ing of your trains I often daydream and mentally wander off staring at the clouds. Such is a day like today when the gorgeousness of the moon in the morning, and the happy advent of hot air balloons made for a moon-sky-inspired dress.
Two layers, one white silk with a light blue tint all over(except where the moon is), and the cotton underlay the more prominant image of the moon and clouds. Comes with a hot-air-balloon brooch for those days when you need a bit of colour.
All my love,
