renaissance fair has never interested me until a friend pointed out there is axe-throwing and ham-leg-eating. i’m in.
Searching the internet for something appropriate for the event… i thought about Franco Zeffirelli’s Romeo & Juliet…. Is THAT the Renaissance? It’s Shakespeare so it should be right? I watched that movie over and over when I was a kid. This is the best scene.
wide eyed olivia hussey is so pretty. i want this dress! It would be perfect for renfair.. classy and not too wenchy
seriously picture perfect.
is this too 70s for renfair?
only feels 70s if it’s short like this right?
this is the default outfit but i really don’t want to go there…
i’ve never been to renfaire either mandy.
apparently if u buy $40 of stuff at borders u get 2 tickets for free
we’re going on May 1 weekend
u should go! it will be my ren faire virginity breaking time.
we’re going on the weekend on May 8th… I have to work the weekend of May 1
eitherway i’m so excited! what are you wearing? i thought about making my own dress out of a pattern too. but… that might be too ambitious of a project
oh oops may 15 i got my dates around
ohh
i dunno, i don’t have any time to make anything cause i’ve got a lot of projects due!!
i’ll probably slap something together and go as some kind of a faerie/fae being.
Man, if you had more time, you could have gotten a killer of a dress from http://www.etsy.com. Maybe you still have time…
