What did you decide to wear, Jess?!? And what did you do with your hair, anything? It's pretty rock chic on the daily...
I decided against the leather corset in the end because I really only have RenFair skirts to go with it. (I tried it with jeans and it created this very unflattering effect where the corset's waistline was like 8 inches above where the jeans' waistline was, and the only tunic length shirts I have that would have fixed that are long sleeved. ) So I went with a black shirt that's got a low sweetheart neckline and then the top half is mesh. I left my hair alone so I wouldn't have to sleep with product in it or take a shower at midnight when I got home.
Many people were decked out in their goth club best, I prioritized being comfortable on the hourlong train ride to and from the city because I am older than I am cool by several decades.
The one time I wore a fancy-pants wig on a big-budget production I could not feel it on my head. It probably cost more than my head.

Being comfortable is a reasonable priority. Makes for a more enjoyable event.
Sounds like good choices! And you looked good on FB
Shame about the leather corset but I 100% understand the issue of matching it to some appropriate bottom! I hate when I have a cool top or bottom but not the right piece to match it because the pants or shirts I have the waistline is too low or too high!!
I really miss having blue hair but I do not want to bleach my hair for it because that caused such damage. Sigh. Trade offs.
Once again, I failed to turn the world on with my dials.
I remember when that used to feel super-important.
Wow, I guess I have a real working life after all. Yay?
(Except, since it feels like I do everything backwards maybe I'll have a retirement filled with commutes and front-office intrigue...pretty bad that I'm bored enough to kind of anticipate that, right?)
I feel like 7pm on a Tuesday can be punk, but can't be glam.
I think events starting at 7pm on a Tuesday have a potential “damn the man, my boss won’t see me Wednesday morning” aspect that makes them potentially punk. But yeah, nsm glam.
Hey, All!
I was all excited to see so many posts in Bitches! As so many others have stated, there was a time when Bitches was my world because I just couldn't keep up with Natter.
So if anyone was wondering, I am still amongst the living, and the Buffistas. I'm just having a hard time keeping up again/still.
I am older than I am cool by several decades.
Truer words, man...
To start the birthday pre-celebrations in Bitches: Tuesday the 23rd is the birthday of the wondrous Steph! Which means that Sunday the 21st is the birthday of the wondrous ME!!!!!!!
This was the other problem - I'm on Pacific time and usually don't have free time for posting until the afternoon. So by the time I post something, you guys are all at dinner or commuting home or whatever so no one responds and I feel so unloved. :(
