Flemish: dress rehearsal

So to speak. Since it's not done but was quite wearable on Sunday, as anticipated!

The SCA event was fun: they did have some SCA things (i.e. men beating each other with sticks) but it was mainly just an afternoon of "let's wear funny clothes and hang out in a very pretty park", which I am 100% down with. We snacked, played Ye Olde Card Games, and went for a sadly abbreviated hike. What's a little mud on my $200 American Duchess shoes? ;) Alas, no one else saw it that way...but I fully intend to make the Imaginary go there with me next time we're both off and it's not repulsively hot. He's a good walker.

The Usual Suspects stayed til about 5:30, when Court had been going on for over an hour with no sign of relief in sight (I don't want to be rude but I want my dinner and I don't care about this looooooooong-ass awards ceremony). I would have stayed longer and gone for more walkies, but I decided wandering around in a giant park all by myself wasn't an awesome idea, so went home and had aforementioned dinner.

Wrote a much more outfit-oriented blog post here, in which 90% of the pictures REFUSE to display right side up, because who knows. Fukkin smartphones. And/or Flickr. Whoever's responsible, they're a dick. There's a few more photos in the Flickr album if you're interested in that sort of thing. They even display right side up!

SCA courts are more entertaining when you know what is going on. And even then they can be pretty boring :)

Very nice! I think you need a basket for the total effect. ;-)

You look great! I love that rosy pink on you.
