oh the peacock shawl outfit at the NCBDMPP was wonderful. Though the Chinese dress is also exceptional. Makes me think I'll need to plan for more than a t-shirt. I can do a shirt and tie, and pack a coat just in case. But it might be far to hot for that.

well, I got disconnected during the first post, and it said it didn't go through, so I retyped my thoughts. See they're different. So, Suit? or Shirt and tie? or Shirt, tie, coat?
If our crew decides to go, I need to invite someone.....

I think it'd be a great idea to show up in the pirate outfits. Of course if I have have to I suppose I could be forced to get dressed up. (Anyone else love the fact that D*C has been the greatest excuse to have to get new things?!)

I am a firm supporter of the pirate idea. It's formal...in a way.

or are you just bein' lazy, Tristan?

I can support lazy. Lazy has gotten me where I am today! err...

Actually, I'm really liking the Pirate Prom idea. Of course, not everybody has to be a pirate to raid Buffy Prom with us. A nice sea of cunning orange hats would be fun, too!

Lazy? Me? No...just 20-something days left and a lot to do...trying not to add too many projects. I'm going to need my fingers and some of my sanity to enjoy the D*C experience.

Oooh, pirates with cunning hats! That sounds like a plan!

Minus the eyepatch. I've had to wear one for real, and its really lost all its romance for me.



pirates have always been my fav baseball team (first professional sports team i was a fan of). Of course...I don't care for baseball much, lol

Also, I've had to wear an eyepatch for real on far too many occasions (oh! and one of my grandpas has a glass eye, lol). We just have no luck with the eyes.

Pirate costume is all I got...I really wanted some other costumes, but the cash flow just isn't what I need it to be for such things :(

Yes - thanks, fireflygal. We just got the reservations the other day. We're going to be about 14 miles away, but with a limited budget, the need for a kitchenette, and a car (we're driving down from Louisville to get Apryl's gallery showings set up), we can be a bit further out. It would have been nice to be at or closer to the venue...but 'tai not happening.

Now the panic is - crap, what do we wear for the Prom-thingie and do we have enough time to pull it together? Apryl's the costume-whiz, but she's got enough stuff to take care of; and neither of the rest of us are any good with costuming. I may take the easy way out and bring one of my nice dresses and some costume jewelry.

I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone!!

Now that the room crisis is solved, time to move into costume crisis mode... Good luck.

I'm thinking shirt and tie, maybe a sport's coat. no tux. I hope there's a iron in the room. We had irons in all the rooms at the hotel where I worked.

that would be great if they don't have them in the rooms. We can always call the hotel and ask. It would be nice to not have a wrinkled dress shirt when dressing to impress.

well maybe not uber dressed up. Something with a little slink. Also, depending on the heat we may just go with the lightest wear we can. If it doesn't cool off between now and then, I may just be in a t-shirt.

there are irons in the rooms.

I remember from last year. I used one and ruined my red chinese dress, which is soon to become my red chinese blouse!
