Here is a gorgeous dress I discovered at vinnies. A hand embroidered dress! I really like it, except for the fact there are embroidered flowers right over the nips and the shaped like a tent. I can handle tent shaping and flowery nips, I just need shrugs, or wraps that cover the boobage and give me a waist. Its so unlike anything else I have, I just want to wear it constantly.

The books are gorgeous, divine, but in the interests of laziness, I will post them later.
Night all!
