After reviewing my wardrobe I decided on my brown leather pants and a long, blondish wig, but couldn't find an appropriate shirt for the occasion. Something trashy, but attempting to be both sexy and tough looking. I thought about a wife-beater, but it seemed too typical, gangster and costumey, and I also thought about a see-through lacey tank top, but even it seemed too classy. I ended up making a denim and lace corset shirt with pink ribbon laces.

It was god-awful with an overall look of a 1992 west Asheville style night on the town involving drinks at Cowboys Night Life followed by line dancing. It was the outfit of a girl torn between two lifestyles. Basically I thought of all my elementary school friend's older sisters and tried to replicate their looks and facial expressions. I even bought a six pack of Bud Ice to complete the look.
Also integrated into the outfit was a brand new "beer opener" belt buckle from my friend Sonja, and a pair of pony fur boots from Hilary.
Getting ready for the party was so much fun. I can't wait for Halloween!
