Dancing 2-nite

Last minute reminder--Bellydancing at the Aladdin tonight.

The costume looks fab. There was a small problem with the bra that was easily fixed. Everything else fits fine. The only unpleasant discovery I had was when I realized that the wonderful braids that hang from the headpiece cover the gorgeously centered paisley on the back of the vest. Grump. I haven't yet decided if I will go all-out-pirate and wear my old Renfest boots, or if I'll stick with the old standby ballet flats. The pants are so fabulously fluffy and I hate to hide the bottom poof in a boot, but the boots look so right with the rest of the costume. I'm sure it'll be a last-minute decision.

Getting ready should go much quicker since I'm forgoing the bindis and the facial tattoos. If I decide to draw one, it'll just be the chin one. Mostly I'm going to concentrate on that smeary, smoky look around the eyes.

OK, so now that the costume is done, does that mean I have to dance? Can't I just stand around and look cool?
