o.o; I found myself wondering for a bit whether it was you or a doll ^^;; Really something, very otherworldly looking setup. Kind of victorian with all the roses and choices in color, not to mention the subject matter. I love the way you've made your eyes stand out, and the contrast between the dark tone of your skin, and the white hair and dress.

#^_^# Thank you!! That was exactly what I was aiming for, so that was the best compliment I could have asked for!! Photoshop is a wonderful thing--I'm hoping to get really good at it someday but this was one of my first projects.

The white hair is a wig, and that sofa is in my mum's living room. *lol* The rest of the patterns (wallpaper, pillows, etc.) are scanned from scrapbooking papers.

cute -- where's the dress from?

thanks :) I do my own custom sewing for others; I was just curious ^^

I bought it online from a store called ShadowFae. They make custom Gothic and Lolita clothing and it's pretty reasonably-priced. The dress is called "Ayame", and you can pick the colors for everything when you order it.
