I'll have to tool around the site and see if I can find any nice cloaks... You should look too, and decide what you want the hair coming out of it to look like (if you like any wigs on site)! & what decor on the wig? I've been in the CW world since about September of 2 years ago, but I took almost a year hiatus :P

I've been trying Magic! Some profit, even if it takes lightyears to sell :P

Okay listing them here so I can look them up xD

hopefully i didn't muck any of those up xD

Looks like you managed it. ;3 I've got nearly half the crowns, I think? Still got a lot to go oops - all the ones I have are cheaper.

I'll definitely have to see what designs I like best. I did fashion design last year and really wanted to do a great cloak like Alexander McQueen's, but never got around to it. One day cloaks will be in fashion again and I will be the happiest person out. w

Streaks in straight bangs with hair coming out the front would be cutest. And some lovely gold or silver embroidery around the hem of the cloak... some buckles, since you'd want it a little practical / serious looking for a hunter. I miiiight be half thinking of Cerise Hood from Ever After High right now, but damn if she doesn't have the hair I've always wanted :P

What time is it for you now? Working hard? ;)

I'll look up the prices in a bit... I'm sure there must be impossible ones x_x

But yes! cloaks = awesome. That set of 5 you said you liked... royal whatever they were called. I don't know of anything else even like that on the site.

Haha link me to anything you're thinking! The friend of mine who does cws is the one who did that antler wig I was wearing (amongst many other things!)

It's 5:55am here! I don't work until this evening so it'll be a few days semi-subless for me :(:(

Royal Overcoats! They're truly splendid. Ohhhhh that's where you got your antlers!! Your friend does gorgeous shading on the hair, and the antlers didn't feel awkward at all! <3 Gorgeous. I saw a few other CWs in your collection that had the hair with a coat/hood/hat, but nothing quite so interesting as those cloaks.

You must be going to sleep soon or in a few hours then, haha. I should just get a job like that; I don't sleep until early morning most of the time either. I'm just always more productive at night.

Yeah I'll be sleeping in about an hour and a half probably! I usually sleep between 6-8am!

I just bought two pricy crowns... wondering how much more intense this will get xD

Ouch to edit that... two in a row now have been 7mil... guess I'll save toward these xD

ikr? It gets pricey. I've got other wardrobe achievements that I spent huge sums of sp on without really thinking about it... now I'm thinking I should probably go through and find those expensive items and sell them. x_x At least for achievements I already have - but then I'd lose items that count towards my total for the Filled Wardrobe achievement! Being an achievement collector is hard... If you let me know which crowns you have, we can split what we've got between us and only spend half as much each to get the achievement?

o uo It's really interesting how you seem to have a default face for your HA. I change mine for every new HA I make, because some eyes don't seem to work with other outfits etc.

Bleh. Picking my brother up from the train tomorrow so I'll have to get some rest, but idrk how to sleep before 3 a.m. atm.

I struggled a ton with this latest HA... still not 100% pleased with it. Sometimes I change my eyes but the makeup & the lips stay the same! (favourites!)

As far as the crowns go, so far I've bought;

Crown of Ultimate Evil Crown of Evil Poppy Crown Pumpkin Crown Sapphire Crown UnicornVomit Mauvicorn Crown

Awesome. I have a few of those, but the other ones I have are: Item Hunter Crown, Crown of Bright Sunshine, Galactic Empress Crown, and all the Tiny Crowns except the Opal one (which I might go find now).

We'd still be needing... Magical Fairy Crown, Crown of the Royals, White Opal Crown, Mardi Gras King Crown (which is pretty and I want it to keep but I don't think that will happen), all the Mini Jeweled Crowns, Frog Royalty Crown, Crown of the Sun Lord and Knightess Crown. Still a fair way to go - I might check the achievement forum and see if people are still loaning those out...

Hi Kayla! I'm.. Mieke. Very creative, I know :P

, too :P

Generally, I don't procrastinate with the tree, but this year, I just didn't want it down.. though the cats totally killed the garland all over the house, and that was still up, too. It was time. :(

ALSO. Cloaks. I want one SO. BADLY. My friend actually had one when I was pregnant with my oldest daughter (what can I say, he was a realllllllll nerd. He also wore a floppy bards cap and feather everywhere. And he was still in high school). ANYWAY. He had one, and I remember going to a robotics competition and wrapping up in it and falling asleep under a table in the caf and it was just so cozy and I'd LOVE for them to come back, basically! The girls have some that they got from LL Bean a few years ago, and I'm always jealous of them.

Hello there :) Right now my main focus is hoarding. I reached 40k unique items last week or the week before! Now just a bit under 5k items to go!! Silvy also is my fellow hoarding sista! :D Other than this I like achievement hunting and I quest when I can to get sP to buy more hoard things.

On an unrelated note. I am very curious to see the results for the Beeman tasks. The only way they would fight the scores is if us AGAINST people kicked some ass! woohoo go team!!

the crown of the royals is intensely expensive... it'd definitely help if some were loanable XD

I wish I could pull off cloaks in real life.... Subeta will be a test market :P

I was going to say! I talked to another hoarder, so that explains it because I spoke to Silvy for quite awhile!

That's awesome though x_x So many items... do you have a method to your madness?

What are the Beeman tasks? I assume cult related?

I think I'd just say screw it. I mean, someone's got to bring them back to get them in style, right?

ALSO. How much easier for like, toddlers, since you're not supposed to have puffy coats in carseats?

Capes are making a return, it's really only a short leap to cloaks!

.... I'm thinking way too much about this. But I want one.

Preferably with like, a minky layer on the inside. Soft AND warm and cozy!

Ugh that sounds brilliant... it can't hurt, right? We can make this happen. The day is now :P

PS do you guys feel like my HA matches? I'm still uncertain. Long hair just wasn't working!

I don't think it matches, but it goes together?

(Mine doesn't match either though, so I mean.. don't take it from me? LOL)

AND YES. Let's make this be a thing!

Cloaks are incredible. A I come across vintage evening ones every so often, and just... I want to wear all of them all the time. Ponchos and capes are pretty great, but they've got nothing on lovely full cloaks. If I get around to it I'll definitely be making one up this year - I want a full red riding hood ensemble complete with a beautiful cloak. Lining it would be so hard but so worth it. /paws pretty fabrics

Ughughugh yep. I'm hoping that there'll be a few people loaning them out again. Just gotta find something worthwhile to give them in return. Also I like the short hair best so far!!

Changed my eye makeup which I'm not certain did anything for me XD

Real life cloaks and potentially cute sub cw cloaks. We'll be rich!

Yes! I'm actually not a fan of ponchos, but capes, I could totally get behind! Nice, soft, snuggly cuddly fabrics. In gorgeous shades. I want an emerald green one.

Ooooh yes. I'm drooling now. I need to get my mother in law on this, after we get the spring line all done and out LOL

I've run out of options to change it to, so I'm glad you like this one. I think this makeup may match better too??? LOL who knows.

If you remember, send me some cloak/hair references so I can show my friend when she gets back into town P: I have her working on shoes for me soon too!

I'm not sure if they need collat or what but I have the which in theory sold for over 350mil a year ago xD

you should totally get a cloak! I am sure you can find them.

no method specifically really. Just add all the items not CWs to my WL and keep buying them when I see them! I suck at restocking so I wait for a while to buy the new things. Once in a while when I have time I go through my Subetalodge hoard list and search everything to buy stuff under 200k. :D It takes a few days!

Beeman is the event we have just completed on our offsite Forums! The Beeman of the Apocalypse! It was fun and the last part was hard! questions all ancient history/bible/apocalypse and other things mixed in for confusion. I was of course against the Apocalypse and am sure our team won, but we wont know I think until the 20/21/22?

In other, totally unrelated news..

This is a picture of Jim Butcher (who wrote The Dresden Files), wearing a chainmaille Jayne hat.

I imagine that it would get caught in your hair.. BUT I DON'T EVEN CARE.
