Tea – 1950s

Pool Party – Bohemian Bathhouse Babes

Monday, August 1^st:

Trip to LA Garment District in the Minivan of DOOOOOM!

Current Mood: excited

There seems to be a lot of CoCo costume/clothing planning going on out there. I thought to myself, “I’m going to CoCo. And I seem to be posting a lot recently. And hey, what is this camera phone doing just laying around here…”

claughter713 and I are plotting together regarding clothes to wear. Given that a few eBay and Etsy purchases have come in for my 1950’s Tea Time outfit, I thought I would share here.

The 'hat' is simply perched on my hair here. I'm going to have to pin the hell out of it for the acutal Tea; but I lurve it!

Now, to find a nice pair of vintage red leather shoes and a clutch.

Also, I am all about the ‘dressing gowns for Sunday Breakfast’. I have just the Chinese silk robe in mind…

Current Mood: excited

So it looks like claughter713 and I managed to get into all the same limited attendance classes at CoCo this year:

Friday – Robin Berry, Survey of Eyelets and Buttonholes 14^th – 16^th Centuries

Saturday – Rory Cunningham, A Pressing Matter

Sunday – Christine Megowan, Medieval and Renaissance Thread-covered Buttons

Sending the checks out today!

I need to sit down with our overall CoCo Schedule and see what spaces that leaves us and then determine what to do with that extra time (primp for Gala and/or Tea? drinkies with the roomies? general evil…?).

In the meantime, no Super Secret projects for me. If I am sewing, you all will know about it. I have hopes and dreams, now to get time and inspiration!

*chuckle*

Current Mood: excited

Cash for Costume College sent.

Hotel reservations made.

Now...all you beotches have to deal with me at CoCo!

*waggles eyebrows at costuming friends*

Gin and tonics with claughter713 and I in our room ladies?

EDITED: We may be looking for a roomie to cut the cost of the hotel a bit more...let us know if you're interested. We still need to check in with a Bay Area pal first...

Current Mood: excited

OK, I am feeling mildly mentally deficient here.

Why can’t I locate an online registration form for CoCo 2011 in LA?

I am a CGW member; was I supposed to get a packet mailed to me?

Help me El Jay!

Current Mood: confused

Take a Deep Breath...

and remember to exhale...
