Dressing the Part at Southwest Lindyfest 2010

I just took my first trip to Texas and had an absolute blast at Southwest Lindyfest 2010. The instructor lineup was amazing, the energy was great, and as an instructor, the event was really, really well run. What a pleasure it is to work with professional organizers!

Before I came to the event, I wasn’t sure how much dancing I would be able to do. I had recently finished taking antibiotics for bronchitis and brought steroid and an inhaler with me to the event (to keep my lungs open). Needless to say, I hadn’t danced for the past week and wasn’t even sure I could dance, but I still wanted to show well. I figured I would need to find a different way, other than dancing, to set myself apart from the other teacher so I did the only thing I could think of and raided my wardrobe! I probably spent 4 hours trying on clothes before I left. I figured if I wasn’t going to dance well, I should at least look good!

Recently I posted a Bonnie & Clyde editorial on Swing Fashionista and realized that I could replicate this look with little effort. Two pencil skirts, a bunch of V-neck shirts, a beret, and three scarves later, I had an entire weekend’s worth of cute outfits. Here are the two main pictures I took inspiration from:

Ridiculous Shoes

I was stumbling around the internet and I found some ridiculous shoes. Soooooooo ridiculous, in fact, that I had to share! Some of them are still available, and some of them aren’t.

How Long Has It Been?

Some of you know, and now the rest of you will. I don’t wash my hair often. Just for shit’s and giggles, here are some pictures of me taken today (Superbowl Sunday).

Question & Answer time!! How long has it been since I washed my hair? How long does it look like it’s been since I’ve washed my hair? When your hair looks like this, how many days has it been for you?

Chime in. I’ll post the answer in a few days.
