We can live in silks and leathers 🍰

Five coloured sketches of the progression of Stede's outfits through the series.
First sketch: Stede walking around with the potted fern and a quill pen, wearing a light teal vest and breeches over a white shirt and stockings.
Second sketch: Stede kneeling in shock in front of the weapon that Chauncy used, his clothes from the privateer academy rumpled and dirty.
Third sketch: Stede in his celebrity pirate era, with a dark teal shirt that shows off his chest, brown leather pants and boots and a sword belt. He's winking off to his right, holding onto a rope with his left hand and his right is resting on the hilt of his sword.
Fourth sketch: Stede is back in his soft fabrics, in blue cotton pants, leather boots and a linen shirt that's wide open and sliding off his shoulders, showing bites and kisses left by Ed. In his hands he's holding onto the pink robe with a soft smile on his face.
Fifth sketch: Stede finds a middle ground in his wardrobe, mixing the softness of fine fabrics with the practicality of leather. He kept the loose shirt wide open over his chest, with shiny pearl and gold necklaces framing his neckline. He's kneeling with one leg on a stool, leather pants soft and stretching in his pose, and buttery gold leather boots adding a pop of colour to his outfit. His upper body is draped over the counter as he smiles coily at his companion (who's not in frame but is definitely Ed)

Asked spouse what earrings I should wear to lunch with the dean and without missing a beat they answered “Guillotines? You know, set the tone”

I swear I'm not being paid to advertise, I just really love this collection and also love saving money.

This shop is offering 50% off with the code DRINKS from Oct. 10 - 14, which makes this collection a steal. 💅

Wren @redwsailing.bsky.social · 4d

I just swatched all of these and they are AMAAAAZING

I emailed the shop about whether they’d ever bring back the original OFMD collection and they said “I don’t have plans to bring the original collection back, but it’s always possible”

So maybe if everyone buys the s2 collection they’ll do it

emy 🏴‍☠️💕🏳️‍🌈 @xoxoemynn.bsky.social · 28d

For my nail polish loving friends who were interested in LynB Designs' OFMD Collection, I am happy to inform you they're currently running a 50% sale with the promo code CANDY. Whole collection is linked here but also available individually and a great deal.

I’ll never let spouse forget about laughing at the end of The Innkeeper while I sobbed

Wren @redwsailing.bsky.social · Nov 27

Let me set the scene:

7am on Oct 5 2023, sitting in our completely dark living room, having watched 95% of the first new episodes of OFMD s2

This Woman’s Work, which I clock immediately after listening to ASherman’s s2 playlist nonstop for months, starts playing

I start sobbing uncontrollably 1/3

Wren @redwsailing.bsky.social · 5d

They yelled because I had spent the entire rest of the film ranting that if they didn’t mention OFMD I was going to write an angry letter, so I really brought this on myself

Like I knew this weekend was going to be A Lot, especially since I haven’t had a moment to breathe for over 2 weeks and spouse’s professional life is imploding and it’s midterms but this was supposed to be a chill visit from our friends… it wasn’t supposed to include one of them landing in the ER
