Is this what I think this is?

I’m making some improvements to my armor, and we’re looking forward to this upcoming season.

this was my plan but yea unfortunately armor directly over dress looks ridiculous. BUT I'm also trying not to boil to death, I'm not wearing a gambeson! any suggestions?

We really love to play bocce ball in the lanes - don't mind my friends giving me some (im)moral support - and have a scheduled nap pile once every day. ♡

1. Regulation festival wench (this one feels safe and practical)
2. Shimmery princess (this one feels like it's more impressive somehow, it's shiny! It's just polyester so I'm not precious about it getting dirty or ruined, but I'm more nervous about this one because it could look like a big beautiful curtain)

You can see the shiny better here: https://emruvio.com/products/ethereal-weave-realm

Would make my makeup/hair look nice as opposed to like I just pulled an all nighter for work. (If you know me, no you don't).

I have different lace up flats that I'm gonna put insoles in bc I am old and tired.

It's going to be partly cloudy and warm, both are pretty lightweight.

It weighs about 40 lbs, but it's a great cold and wet weather cloak.

Nothing too crazy, just cobbling together sort of an herbalist ranger kind of thing with some stuff I bought on Amazon (belts and phial pouches) and already owned (little necklace book + quiver and arrows!)

How can I kick this up a notch? Is there any sort of headgear or arm wear or armor I should think about incorporating?

We'll be going to Melbourne Renfair in late May. Very excited. #melbournerenfair #renfair #renfaircostume #gothwhimsy
