Sin City - The Valentine's Edition
Feb. 13th, 2005 12:56 pmLast night was a great Sin City - good music, lots of energy, lots of dancing, lots of familiar faces.
tareija drove - thank you! - and we got there early enough that we were only in line for about 15 minutes, and that only because of back-ups at coat check and the need for more change at the door.
Our group looked fabulous, of course.
ED looks so great in her corset - I am increasingly eager to get mine, but we only went fabric shopping yesterday, so I must be patient. And she got hit on, which always makes her night... apparently front-less skirts are her "look".
tareija borrowed a negligee from my closet and some leather from
xtalforge's collection, and looked awesome. Too bad your hair wouldn't stay up... I'm with
xtalforge on the beauty of your back! But you still looked great.
It was the first time I'd seen
darianhawke's much discussed army costume. My verdict: he was one of the hottest men there last night. Girls, some second opinions on this?
cinnamonsqueak: You looked so cute in your cat outfit! I hope the time you had inside was worth the wait in line.
I got some compliments on my outfit, some from complete strangers, which is always cool. I went as a bumblebee. I pulled out my poor bodice (see icon), tightened it up as best as it can be tightened, and had black and translucent striped thigh-highs, a short yellow crinoline (with black-light-responsive white lace trim... very neat looking on the dance floor), and had little homemade wings and antenna on springs on my head. For next time I wear it, I want to find knee-high black and yellow striped socks and I want to trim the wings in black-light-responsive ribbon.
I, unfortunately, am a dumbass, so even though I left my digital camara on the table, I didn't get any pictures before leaving. And by the time we got home at 4 am, we were all too wrecked to want to have pictures taken.
Our car load left about 15 minutes short of closing the bar, to avoid the rush at coat check, then went to the 24 hour Knight & Day restaurant. I didn't really sleep until 6 am because of my darling cats. But I did get about 4 or 5 hours of sleep after 6, then had a latte, so I'm doing OK now.
It was a good night.
