It doesn't look like a holster but I have worn it to so many different events with different outfits and costumes and I love how much stuff I can fit into the pockets (phone, camera, business cards, money, lip balm, keys, etc). <br /><br />It wasn't cheap so of course I coveted it for almost a year before I finally gave in and bought one, but I'd imagine if you're crafty you could come up with something similar.<br /><br />http://www.hipstirrbelts.com/belts.phpAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-87876786441230419752012-06-17T00:06:00.731-04:002012-06-17T00:06:00.731-04:00They really need to glue some gears on that car......They really need to glue some gears on that car... (and now that song is stuck in my head again.) Seriously, the inside of that car is so sumptuous I wish they'd taken the outside just a little farther -- make the rims more like gears, use copper rivets to "attach" the fenders, maybe a leather-look bra with buckles for a corset feel or replacing the painted stripe with a trim piece that looks like leather. Of course, I can say that because I don't have to design it, implement it, or make it affordable...Sharynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17838553216463783284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-80825062086350136232012-06-17T00:04:13.467-04:002012-06-17T00:04:13.467-04:00I'd never let anyone in the car!

Also their walking skirt. Also the spare pockets, which aren't bad at 40 bucks.<br />I do have a pair of cargo pants that have eaten it, but I've been holding onto for the pockets. The original plan was maybe a purse, but I think they've found their calling.Bubbleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05599366162303674938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-6234080664303571552012-06-16T15:51:24.835-04:002012-06-16T15:51:24.835-04:00I've got one of JungleTribe's blasting bag...I've got one of JungleTribe's blasting bags..

I made my own. Got a cheap (I think it was 10 brand new) smallish purse from JC Penneys that featured a clasp-removable adjustable shoulder strap.<br /><br />It holds everything I need, looks awesome on my hip OR over my shoulder.

I have my costume all put together, but my hair!<br /><br />My hair falls in two "long" layers to just above my shoulders (the longest layer just brushes them. It won't hold curls, doesn't like to straighten, and has a serious tendancy to flip out at the bottom on one side and curl under on the other.<br /><br />Accessories available are: a pair of goggles, a fascinator, or a hat that doesn't really suit the costume. <br /><br />The costume is: <a href="http://www.clockworkcouture.com/ladies/blouses-tops/cotton-corset-of-non-constrictionary-configuration.html" rel="nofollow"> This top</a> in brown and <a href="http://www.clockworkcouture.com/ladies/ladies-bottoms/on-the-steamship-lollipop.html" rel="nofollow">this skirt</a> reworked as a bustle (thanks for the idea, Jen!) over a knee-length, A-line khaki skirt with a ruffle at the bottom. And boots, gloves, and necklaces. <br /><br />This is only my second con, and I have <i>no clue</i> how to do my hair.
