The random never stops

Is it wrong that I looked at this and it gave me an idea for - a party dress?  Especially since I don't even watch things like Project Runway?

A friend at work pointed me at this Craigslist ad for a vintage clothing sale Saturday here in Alameda. The name rang a bell: Retro Diva used to sell out of an antique shop over on Park Street and is now selling through Icon Vintage in Berkeley.

Anybody want to go all Master and Commander with me? momstable  did one of the battle sails last month and I just found the bookmark again and they're doing sails out of Oakland this month. I realize this weekend would be short notice, though the weather looks promising. Sunday? Or maybe next Sunday? Additional Bay area sails run through the beginning of April. (For the fannish, the Lady Washington was used for the Napoleonic holodeck sequence in Star Trek: Generations and has done duty in the Pirates of the Carribean films.)

That sort of thing would be almost enough to make me move out there, if I were single. Esp. if they had a Russell Crowe look-alike to assist with the verisimilitude....

I wish! Not in the current budget, I'm afraid.

That looks like it would be a REALLY nice dress.

I *love* the "Mongolian" coat extant garment too, and would LOVE to see your Party dress idea. Not wrong at all! :)
