Off with her head
November 3, 2007
Tonight is the costume party, and the most exciting aspect of it is all that getting ready time, being able to switch up the process from the daily routine. Normally I hate getting ready. Specifically, I’m tired of blow-drying my hair. For the rest of my life. I don’t want to do it anymore, ever.
I’m going as a historical figure, and I know, you’re thrilled at the possibilities. I can tell by your silence. It was either that or the wet t-shirt winner, and let me tell you, I was this close to going the other way.
I borrowed a dress from a seamstress, am goring up my neck with latex and paints, and nabbed this, which came from a trashcan at a bridal salon:
Any ideas?
Whoever guesses correctly can borrow the wet t-shirt costume. I won’t be needing it till Easter.

Marie Antoinette?
I WANT that costume!

I think Marie Antoinette too.
I’m pretty sure if I never had to blow dry my hair again, I’d be the happiest person in the world. It’s the only downfall of long hair.

Mary Queen of Scots!

I’m guessing Marie Antoinette as well. Anyway, have a great time at the costume party. I hope you take pictures =]

I’m guessing Elizabeth I. And I second the motion on the pictures…

Anne Boleyn!

Lisa beat me to Mary Queen of Scots.

Catherine the Great?
No, seriously, I have no idea. Nice tiara, though.

Hmmm, let them eat cake?

Hmmm. I have absolutely no idea. Please share!

My guess was Anne Boleyn as well… but I am not so great with European history. Any of the guesses would be a really fun costume!

I have no idea, but I second the sentiment about blow-drying!

Catherine Howard?
That tiara’s a pretty good find for a garbage can.
