My RWA chapter, Passionate Ink, had a great party – the theme was burlesque, and besides a talk on the history of the art form, there were three performances from a local troupe, White Elephant. Some of my fellow chapter members had great costumes!
More great outfits.
I wore a blue dress and elaborate blue eyeshadow.
Romance scholar Sarah Frantz is almost always wearing red, her favorite color – but I discovered at this party that even her food is red!
