my spangly purple dress!

Oh!  I have a new camera cable, so I can in fact show you pictures of my spangly purple dress!

Here it is (clickable thumbnails yay, and also regular size behind the cut):

 

Both with and without flash; as you can see, it reflects enough light that the color is much truer in the pictures without flash.


 

 

 

I realize, looking at especially the hanging-up pictures, that a person might say "Fox, are you sure that's a dress and not, you know, a shirt?"  Yes.  Yes, I am.  You can see where it curves in at the waist; also, to give you a sense of scale, the sleeves there are three-quarter-length, and do in fact just about bisect my forearms.  The skirt comes to three or four inches above my knees.

Such a dress deserves silver go-go boots, don't you agree?  Possibly glittery silver go-go boots.  But I think not glittery purple ones.  [pondering]

Silver go-go boots and an Enterprise insignia, I think...

Hee! Perhaps. [livejournal.com profile] sanj wonders if I am aspiring to companion-hood, which is also a perfectly fair question.

Oooh...whyfor did you buy said spangly dress? It's v.v. cool!

Why did I buy it? Wouldn't you have bought it? It seemed like the sort of thing one ought to buy, given the chance.

Well, yeah, but people expect me to wear slightly crazy shiny stuff....

(I think it would be fabulous at Disco Duck -- you are coming to CON.TXT, right?)

I am not normally a con-goer. But I could probably be persuaded to go to a party, especially given that I have a fabulous outfit. :-)

See, CON.TXT would be perfect for you -- it's like a big party. Honest. :-D

Everybody says that about every con. They're just not for me. But I've been known to stop by on Saturday evening.

Unless you want vids, Fridays are better for socializing at CON.TXT...that's when we have the bar and play music.

That dress is AWESOME. And I definitely think it calls for silver gogo boots. :D

Silver go-go boots for sure to go with your shirt dress.
