Today's important question: how small CAN I compact the giant petticoat and skirt for packing? Hello giant ziplock, help me out here.
Since I will be in PDX for barely 24 hours, I don't want to lug the giant suitcase with me. The problem is, my outfit for Vespertine is ... well, it's one of my outfits. So, fluffy. Voluminous. And with a velvet coat. (Cotton short-pile velveteen, actually, so I don't need to worry about it getting crushed in transit.)
. . . safety pins! I need to make sure I have a bunch with me! And one of my little waist pouch purses, because I have no pockets in this outfit, and I can't ask the StuntHusband to carry everything! (Well, I can, but I won't do that to him.)
Yes, this is my scattered stream-of-thought while getting ready for an event. Go on, look surprised.
