Do you know what one of the more difficult and tedious things about being a Princess is? Figuring out what to wear. I swear, the camp garb has been relegated to the back of the closet until next June and I can't wear just one outfit all day long. At least the weather predictions for Gothic War eliminate half of what's available to me.

And let's not forget crowns and veils. And what to do with my hair.

It's ridiculous when you have more bins of garb than you do bins of camping items for an event.

Oh.

Um. I mostly camp semi-alone at pennsic.
Camping stuff & Kitchen: 2 bins
Clothes: 3 large and 2 small bins
Teaching stuff: 4 to 10 bins...

heh ... you know my mantra ... pre-pack pre-pack pre-pack!

Hair .. hmmm .. well, I have had this page up for a really long time, you are welcome to play with the styles.

My hair started to fall out during the last reign I worked (long story, email if you want to know). Before that I was able to do these by myself rather quickly.

I really loved the three braid one for fighthing.

There is also hair wrapping:

You mean because it'll be FREAKING HOT!? OR because it'll be wet??
*lol*

Be sure to take your inhailers (I know, duh, for you), as I DIE there! Big part of the reason I'm not going this year, despite how much I love you guys. (plus lots of other people are going, so I know you two are covered!)

Clothes...yeah, I'll be over at Amy's Wednesday for that very purpose. I ahve found a couple cure men's outfits I want to do, and want to play with a few women's stuff. As while I love a coathardie, I am finding that I just get too warm in some of them!

I'm getting excited about the clothes though!!!

Oh god isn't it just...

I finally achieved more-or-less functional wardrobe at Pennsic, though I really need a weekend of frantic sewing sometime soon, which is not going to happen before coronation, because I'm embroidering every minute I'm not doing something for work or answering email. Ack.
