So, way back in May it was my second wedding anniversary. For those of you not in the know that's cotton. My husband is a wonderful man and my present was fabric! The piece of fabric I'm particularly thinking of is the dark green cotton velvet. Just enough to make a frock coat out of. :)
So I dug out my patterns, rooted through for the frock coat one, made
it up and then... Well nothing. I had no use for a frock coat at the
time and I certainly wasn't planning on giving this one away to anyone
else! Luckily for me however an evil campaign was devised and I created
and anarchy priestess out of little used bits and bobs. She wears a
green and black brocade under bust corset (from corsets uk I think), a
shirt picked up from a costume shop in a hurry and originally used
by my guard, black mens combat trousers (Burtons) and my lovely frock
coat.

The green and the yellow work really well together to make a coat that feels 'evil' but not traditionally so. I'm debating a jaunty green hat to add to this outfit I must admit though...
