Saffron ,'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!
Marvin assures me they have other great spaces available.
Not to bring up the whole "it's hot there" conversation again, but ... is the courtyard oustside? I'm just a huge fan of controlled climate, see.
I am intrigued by Dana's question about the possibility of looking for other venues for the Saturday night festivities.
I'd be okay with that if it was basically adjacent - the costume changes alone are a big part of the fun.

Ah, right. Forgot about that part. I was kinda late getting there last time (which was my first time), so I missed the first round, mostly.
??¡?'s still a Best Western, I was thinking of the local management group that actually runs it now.
Maybe it's on a Hellmouth?
When I stayed there in June, it was crawling with middle school kids on some massive field trip, the vending machines were broken on EVERY floor (so I had to walk a mile and a half through the seedier part of Evanston at night to find an open convenience store where I could buy a soda), and the staff seemed to be playing a game of hide-and-seek with me. If the hooves fit...
Do any of the Halloween in Seattle people have (access to) a long hair wig they could lend me? I am dithering over what to wear, since so far I haven't found shoes to go with the geisha outfit. I can borrow another store bought costume, but it needs a long haired wig.
Honey, all you need are flip flops. That's what I wore.!
Lee, Aimee's right. I even have a pair of geisha-esque flip-flops that you can wear if you like. Well, if your shoe size is around 10. Which I don't think it is. But if it is, you can use 'em.
I haven't even been able to find flip flops that look even vaguely Japanese in my size (which is 11). It sounds like Juliana's might work though.
Also, do you know how to do geisha eyes if I have the makeup?

Traditional geisha eye makeup is merely liner and mascara. You'll need white pancake makeup, black liquid liner, and redred lipstick. And yes, I'll be happy to do your eyes.
Lee- - I've seen pretty large size geta-type shoes at Walmart very recently.
