Costume College: Friday

For whatever reason, I decided that it would be a good idea to wear my Edwardian corset and underpinnings all day on Friday even though I'd never worn them for more than an hour or so.....

I wore my 1916 nautical dress!

This corset ended up not being very comfortable to sit in because the boning in the front was too long and poked my legs. And I picked up a new pair of stockings right before I left and I must have picked up a size to small because they started cutting off circulation to my legs. So for the latter half of the day, I stood as much as possible and scandalously wore no stockings. Live and learn.

Edwardian Day Dress

For the ice cream social, I wore the 1914 day dress. I felt so pretty! :D I actually made it to the ice cream social early enough to get ice cream and socialize with people before the market place opened.

Disney Villains-2

After the four Disney princesses at last year's gala, there were quite a few more this year. But these Disney villains rocked it! :D
