My Titanic get-up with a blue beaded evening gown that would be inappropriate-it’s modern (I made it look Edwardian with a shawl and a sash), and I don’t want to spill anything on it, or risk ruining it. Formal dinner/dance, yes. Massive Dopefest, no.
Maybe I’ll be a fairy princess? I want to be something with a tiara. Tiaras rule.
Or a Jedi Knight. Then I can buy a lightsaber!!!
Either way, Salvation Army, here I come!
Going game by game, not run by run. Otherwise I wouldn’t be able to keep up with it (and the poor hamsters…).
Though the way it’s looking now, I’m not going to have a happy update tonight:(
Tranquilis-
Three of the five people I was going to ask so far declined to give me a lift to the bridge area. I’m still working on that though.
I just had the coolest idea-ever see the cover of the soundtrack for Anything Goes?
It features an angel, but her dress is slit up to the thigh, she’s got lots of eyeliner on, fishnets and she’s winking. That’s me!
That or a flapper. Damn skippy!
when the angels play low
on their harps and bow
Kneel and pray low
then get up and shake your halo!
So far we’ve got RT down (well, he’s posted it, at least, though others may be thinking similar thoughts) as being enticed beyond usefulness by a doper’s prospective costume/appearance. If you wear that, Guin, I think we’ll be able to sign up everyone else there.
Anything Goes, indeed:D
Say, MsRobyn, I think I’ll actually drive down to where you are, then hitch a ride with you on Saturday. This is the cheapest option. I don’t mind driving for five straight hours, I’m used to driving for three about once a month anyways.
I’ve got the best costume idea, but I can’t seem to get the one critical piece of clothing I need for it. I can get it easily if I want to spend well over $50 on eBay, but I’m trying to limit it to under $30, if possible. Drat.
bouv: I am the Queen O’ Thrift. Email me and tell me what you need, and I will try my damndest to find it for you.
I’ll be borrowing my friend’s tiara. She was the Prom Queen. I can pretend it belongs to me for at least one night.
Can I just register my annoyance that this isn’t happening on Sunday? Having to choose between this and Six Flags was not fair. Especially since I can’t wear this to Six Flags. (Well, I could but it wouldn’t be the same, and it would make the roller coasters a pain in the ass.)
Guinastasia, you’re also welcome to borrow some of my medieval stuff. I can easily throw a Bag O’ Garb into the trunk.
CJ
Works for us!
E-mail me and give a tentative schedule. If you’d like, you can stay with us Saturday night, since we’re planning to stick around JC’s till the wee hours.
Any ideas for Aaron’s costume?
Robin
Grr. He was logged in on my computer.
I will be the one wearing the pretty tiara. Not him.
Can I register my further annoyance that I posted this in the wrong thread, and should not keep having 10 threads open at once and confusing me??
wanders back to the ren faire thread Oh hey, there it is…
Huh. I thought it was just a halloween costume. Works that way.
Damn skippy. A tiara would not go with my (as-yet-unmade) ensemble. Perhaps a cinderblock…
I’m thinking flapper, after all. I can wear my gloves. Coolness.
And a feather boa. I want a big fluffy feather boa. And a fake ciggie holder.
And I can get a fringed dress, and spin around and make it fly everywhere!!!
WEE!!! This SO makes up for NOT being able to do the Titanic dinner this year!
Er, two points:
There’s breakables in the Chance Estate, and if you spin around too much you might get dizzy.
There’s also random and assorted doperkids[sup]TM[/sup] at the Chance Estate (or rather, there will be come DaW), who may well be looking up that dress. I’d come prepared, if perhaps anachronistically.
I can so picture you in a tiara, you should just wear it anyway.
Damn, Opal!
You’re just trying to tease me with that gypsy outfit, aren’t you?
You’d still wear it. You wore my bridal veil.
