okay so I have been looking at ridiculous dresses for like two weeks now -- both full-length black fancy things for Chane and wedding dresses for Lua and yes yes I keep going Eee! So pretty! Clearly I would wear something like that all the time!

even though I know this is a dirty lie, as evidenced by the really fancy dress I do have that I have worn exactly once .____.

but I understand. Occasional bouts of princess. >:

Oh, good, I feel less dumb now. XD;;

On the one hand, there are uses for such frilly things - sometimes they're good for feeling pretty in a way that doesn't reinforce the idea that only straight/white/rich girls get to feel pretty. There are times that it is about looking good truly for oneself (and one's geeky Baccano-loving friends ;) ). But then there are other times.

"Bouts of princess" describes it pretty well. :P
