#nothin sad abt thrifting but do u get what i mean?

[lumalalu]

i rlly wanna buy a . thrifted “wedding” dress to fuck around with but i have so many other projects i havent even STARTED lol.

#wedding is in quotes bc i refuse to buy anything over $25 MAYBE over $50 if its genuine #so a lot of what shows up r like bridesmaids dresses n things that r just white and lacey #i saw a train on ebay tho #so like. a fake wedding dress. a wedding dress bc thats what it was listed as #at the thrift store they had a few out but obv they were still expensive #i get like the concept i understand why but if im shopping for a wedding dress at a thrift store youd think theyd go. Oh... :( well i want u #r day to be special and will give this to you for 10 dollars. #nothin sad abt thrifting but do u get what i mean? #the monetary value should not reflect the 'specialness' of the occasion the thing was made for #ykwim? #like it just leaves a yucky taste in my mouth #someone donated that to you and you decided to put a $200 price tag on it. #like im not gonna spend $200 at a thrift store when i could probably find something new for the same price #get it together #the only things that made sense at such a high price were like the furniture #like $140 for an ugly kitschy couch? fuck yeah man #(it was plaid) #(and beautiful) #anyways my idea is: instead of spikes i would put like irregular spiky pearls on it #the train would be attached with safety pins #not that i found any long cheap dresses that would suit a train but actually ykw that doesnt matter #turn the train into like a weird overskirt thing #call it a day #dye it dark purple and then splatter black on it so its all uneven #isnt it crazy theyre making safety pin earrings and people r buying them? #like if u rlly r scared abt puncturing ur ears u can like #fix the safety pin to make it less sharp right? like you know u can just make it blunt right? #i dont fit in my corset anymore for whatever stupid fucking rwason so my shirt project is on hold :( im rlly sad abt this like #its a cheap fucking corset but i rlly wanted to make a silly little fairytale princess lookin setup for renfaire #and now i cant even wear the centerpiece
