Meet Franco and my Lyptis skirt
Honestly…why even consider buying from retail giant outlets when you can choose to buy from an independent designer and get a really beautiful handmade item?
I wouldn’t expect myers to send my goodies with a handwritten note to thank me for my purchase, and also include bunny drawings (because the seller obviously knows I have a bunny obsession). On top of that the seller also made me a very crazy rabbit brooch to accompany my skirt, which looks half Frankenstein and half rabbit. I’ve named it Franco by the way.
I don’t think the pictures do any justice to this cute skirt, sorry Franz…I tried to do a Lyptis pose but I just can’t!
If you’d like a Lyptis outfit too, why don’t you check out her shop? Speak to Franz about her colour swatches! I picked mine in blue grey.

The skirt looks GREAT! I like your scarf too!
And the bunnies! Did Fran draw them? At first I was confused because I thought that’s what you bought and I couldn’t find a link and I wanted to look at the shop. Fran you have hidden talents, you’re a great illustrator!
