dancingleafbecause the silver set I bought in April still isn't ready for professional gigs...
it leaves me wearing the gold coin costume over and over. So I gave in and bought this beauty off the swap meet.
I really hope it fits as I've been having no luck on the buying on the internet lately.
also - here's our group before the parade the other day.........
that's me in the sunglasses, bright pink sleeves and blue skirt on the end.

Date: 2011-07-11 06:41 pm (UTC)DAYS after I bought the silver I learned that Dahlal was coming to an area workshop. I kicked myself but couldn't justify another costume. I've had/have booking for 3 ~paying~ shows since then - Hence the justification for a REAL costume. Hope this one works.
If I had known the silver would be such a flop I would never ever have bought it.

but with the party bookings I really needed an alternate costume.
