Next book I sell, I'm buying another corset.
Of course, I have to wear the one I currently own somewhere. (My planned Prom outfit is still hanging on my door. Perhaps next year.)
And you're sure this isn't just some fanboy thing? 'Cause I've fought more than a couple pimply, overweight vamps that called themselves Lestat.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
(grump) Women get all the best clothes.
I've always thought that, even as a kid.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I don't have a corset yet. Woe. Don't really have the $$ to buy one now, either, what with the f2f and a long bellydance workshop coming up and my phone pooping out. Too bad, since that one is on sale.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Jilli - I heartily approve of the True Blood TV series, myself. I find the books oddly compelling (although often that compulsion is of the punch-Sookie-in-the-face variety), but I genuinely like the show. It's got a good ensemble, and I like the music (theme tune's catchy as hell) and the cinematography a lot. Lafayette and Tara (and Tara's mum) and Hoyt are probably my favourite characters. And Sam. And Gran. Erik and Pam are fab (especially Pam). Bill and Sookie... are probably the part I'm least interested in, really, but I don't dislike either of them*. And I surprise myself by finding Jason terribly disarming - frequent nekkidness notwithstanding (although it garnered vocal opprobrium as well as fervent appreciation), I think he gives a very good performance, and I think his character arc is FAR more interesting in the show than in the books.
LOVED the peacock corset. (Gasp!) And the X-ray one too, because it's cool as hell, but I have a particular soft spot for peacocks.
*on the show. I'm not going to love the hell out of Sookie any time soon, but the performance is not without its charm, and the writing is better, and because she's no longer the lens through which we see everything, Sookie's much less annoying on screen, imho, than on the page. But YMMV.

Fay! I sent you a message on FB.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
JZ's honeymoon corset is still my favorite.
Hmmm, that was a good haircut on her but it's too curly post pregnancy to do that look anymore.
Can I get a quick vote from Bitches on their favorite JZ hairstyle from the following?
I'm kind of missing the redder hair on her now that I'm looking at these.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I like her current hair, but curly layered bob is hot and short layered flippy is good too.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I vote for whatever she likes best.

Very Louise Brooks.
Actually, Hec, my favorite hairstyle that I've seen on JZ is from the series of pictures you posted from her birthday in the Va-Va-VOOM red dress. The whole look was spectacular.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
JZ's curly layered bob is cute. I want my hair to do that.
