rather than wear my same old favorite crinoline and lacy top to the dawning last night for 80s night, i ransacked my wardrobe.

i remembered wearing oversized shirts and leggings or stirrup pants.

i managed to find an off-white pirate shirt, black velvet leggings, suede granny boots, white slouch socks, a rather boxy brimmed hat, and a nice big hair scarf. oh, and a vest with some nifty brocade on it.

i rolled my hair so i could make it big, but my hair doesn't hold curl. so it was just sorta frizzier than usual (from the Hold-Up gel and Aquanet (yes, i own aquanet)). the front was in two ponytails, each put into six braids. i tied that big ol' scarf around my back ponytail and put on the hat.

so i unwittingly ended up resembling boy george.

it was silly. and fun. :D

risabe shoulda been there. :)

and why is it that men always get the stud points? even if *I* should be awarded stud points, they go to boy. WHAT is UP with that? i hate discrimination. i want my stud points, dammit.

had a lovely friday evening/saturday with nothingoth thanks for putting up with my chatter, chad. i'm used to having a quiet boy in the house, so i will eventually learn to shut up and let someone else talk. ;) please come visit again. i'll make more pie or dumplings or something.

we picked apples with Magi. that was nifty. we have lots of winesaps now, so i should get to baking 'em or making something.

today, i need to go buy rechargeable batteries, a new bathmat, new needle for my turntable, and i can't remember what else.

i'll have pictures later. i don't have time to edit 'em down in photoshop right now.

I SO would have worn that.

I'd probably wear it today. Maybe not the slouch sox. I never could stand to feel them all bunched up around my ankles!

I give you major points, but if you'd put a tank top on under that pirate shirt, left it mostly unbuttoned and hanging off one shoulder you would win the Annabella Lu Win Award.

Anyone remember who SHE was? (No fair, [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] and queenie, because I figure ya'll are about the only ones who will!)

I get left out of all the fun contests. ;)

Yeah, not only do I know, but I had quite the obsession with her back in th' day.

You would have had lots of fun last night with us! It was retro madness!
