I went looking for this costume to put in October, because I had remembered it being black and white, but it’s actually not. It seems to be shades of brown and grey. I love this look with its striped skirt, waistcoat and coat, not to mention that awesome hat. 10/10 would wear!
Las alas de la paloma
Ella —Kate Croy— esperaba que su padre bajase, pero él se demoraba allá arriba desconsideradamente, y había momentos en los que se mostraba a sí misma, en el espejo de la chimenea, un rostro decididamente pálido por esa irritación que la había llevado hasta el punto, casi, de retirarse sin verlo.

Take two, haha! I'm Charlie and my favourite five Helena characters are Bellatrix, Kate, Mrs. Lovett, Dinah and finally Emily. My favourite Helena character quote will always be: "He knows how to play! Itty, bitty, baby Potter!" Thanks sweetie! 💚
Oh bless you! Again I’m terribly sorry about Bella being taken, however Kate is all yours and she is a splendid character! You’re more then welcome, I’ll pop you on now angel!♡♡

It’s in her eyes. Can’t you see? There’s far too much going on behind those pretty lashes.
