Costume Con III

[robinsnest]

When last we met our funnily dressed travelers it was Saturday night and after stopping in the worlds most gorgeously dressed lounge we hit the sack as we had another busy working day ahead of us.

Fast forward to Sunday morning




Bob was not so happy to see it. I however was happy to extract the blackmail.

Sunday was busier than Saturday, so I didn't get as many marvelous photos but here are a few of my favorites.





The Ladies in the morning fresh from breakfast. Don't they just look lovely?





I won my first Hall Costume Award! Interestingly it wasn't for the new pretty jacket I frantically made but for an old dress I wore cause I didn't have anything else to wear that I made back in 2006. Go figure.










Let me start by saying there were some AMAZING things to be seen at the masquerade. okay well there were only two that I thought were cool and one of them was STUNNING! (take a wild guess who?) 

First my personal second place:



It's such a perfect Erte! Bob leaned over and said "all she needs is a greyhound!"

And the knock out, drool worthy winners:



I mean seriously, my SKIN doesn't fit me that well! It was stunning, just stunning. Here are a few more photos so you can all drool with me:

I took a TON of pictures at the masquerade. So if you want to see them all go here.

Ah, Koshka's spotty dress! Isn't she awesome?

You can read all about it here (http://koshka-the-cat.livejournal.com/tag/the%20spotty%20dress). I especially love the fact that she had her toes manicured to match! She's so adorable.

Yes I've been a LJ friend of hers for a few years, it was marvelous to see it in person and finally meet her. :-)

Heh, I should have checked your friends list. When you didn't mention her name, I just assumed you didn't know who she was. D'oh!

The truth is I never remember how to spell everyone's names so goof them up and I'm out of the habit of inserting them. But no I've drooled from afar at many of her amazing creations. She sure is talented.

For some reason I always remember the names of people's pets. (And Koshka is her cat.) It's my weird superpower. =P
