DIY December Wrap-Up

DIY December was a bit of a cozy Flickr group, and I had a great time with it. I find that I attend more parties in December than other months, so I wear some things that don’t get a lot of time outside the closet in my everyday life. I did not take pictures every day because there were some duplicate outfits and, well, you just don’t need to see my fur skirt over and over.
