I don't think I want to go to the Vampire Ball as a Goddess though.
The Vampire Ball is just a couple weeks away and I'm not 100% sure what I'm wearing yet.
I was hoping to mix it up a bit this year but I'm not sure yet.
I don't exactly know how different I want to go or what I want to do.
My husband wanted to do vampire Santa. I said no. Mainly because I don;t want to be vampire Mrs Claus. LOL

This Lady of the Manor has a nice Victorian look to it, which I love. I adore the Victorian styles, though I would much rather the skirt part be big and poofy not tight and form fitting. After all Victorian era dresses are known for bustles. Not skin tight skirts. The little bustle this has just isn't enough for me.
Lady of the Manor Adult Costume includes dress, jacket
with attached bustle, cravat with cameo pendant and headpiece with cameo.

Mysterious Mistress Adult Costume features a slong-sleeved crush velvet knit gown with center front shirring, attached necklae and spider web shimmer knit chiffon trim along the cuff and hemline.
This Mysterious Mistress is nice too- very Morticia Addams which is my style too. I've always loved the Morticia look. Though I don't think I'm thin enough to pull it off anymore. Once upon a time...
