“You’re thinking about something, my dear, and that makes you forget to talk. I can’t tell you just now what the moral of that is, but I shall remember it in a bit.”
“Perhaps it hasn’t one,” Alice ventured to remark.
“Tut, tut, child!” said the Duchess. “Everything’s got a moral, if only you can find it.”
― Lewis Carroll, Alice’s adventures in Wonderland
I went down the proverbial rabbit hole all the way to Enchantment, and lost myself in the fascination of Lewis Carroll’s fantasy. My version of the Duchess is wearing the amazing Iracebeth gown by Silvan Moon Designs, inspired by the Queen of Hearts. It’s available in several colors, and of course the iconic black/red. The tea cup chairs behind her are the beautiful new creation by The Roawenwood. I plan to showcase them again, but I could not resist showing them off.
The Duchess’ stern face is the new Clover skin by 7 Deadly S{k}ins, created for the Designer Showcase. I chose the browless version included in the pack, and added wrinkles by Izzie’s from the last Skin Fair.
“I speak severely to my boy,
I beat him when he sneezes;
For he can thoroughly enjoy
The pepper when he pleases!”
