WW's New SUMMER Log ...

[WoNderWoMan25]

Well, I have a costume #2 now. I'm heading to NYC on Sat night and don't plan on freezing on the streets in my referee half-shirt. So I'm going to do "Devil Wears Prada" - devil horns, red tank top that shows off my arms and a little stomach, prada purse with the book peeping out. I *should* wear a black pencil skirt with knee high boots, but may just go with jeans to be comfy.

By the way, are you in NYC too? My parties are at Katra and China1.

Sounds hot! I like!

I did something similar last year - sexy kitty - black pencil skirt with knee high boots, fuzzy black sweater, tail, cat ears. Dark eye make-up and 'whiskers'.

I am not in NYC - Way upstate - Are you familar with Poughkeepsie or Albany at all? I do take the train down once every month or two. Love to visit, but living there is not for me. Westchester is probably the farthest south I'd go.

Everyone has an opinion, but I am learning- It is MY OPINION that counts the MOST.

So well said!! People will continue to voice their opinions whether solicited or not, and sometimes I find they come from total random strangers even. The best way to handle this (and I still haven't mastered this entirely) is to cooly say "thank you for your opinion", smile and move on. I still have many occassions where I get defensive or feel my blood pressure rise in annoyance, but I'm trying to get better about it.

And way to go on being spraypainted topless and being semi-comfortable about it. Ultimately it's ALL about body confidence!!

I'm familiar with Poughkeepsie - Vassar is there, right? And I have a cousin who lives in Albany. Manhattan is my fave city (followed closely by Chicago) so I try to get there as much as I can - it's only a 2 hr ride from Philly for me.

So is tonight your big Halloween expedition or is that over the weekend? Have fun!! I'm exposing the midriff tonight so wish me luck I already know some insecure a$$hole is going to come up to me and say "I thought you'd have a more defined six-pack than that" at which point I will have to resist having to spit on him

Going here tomorrow... http://www.inbfnys.com/

Definitely the pre-judging, but the night show may interfere with my halloween partying!

My trainer will be in the open/masters and a friend is entering the novice class - It's his first show.

This was very cool ~ Glad I went!! It was a pro-qualifier for the women's figure... The girls last year sucked big time, but this year the classes were huge and the girls looks great!! Got to talk to a few, which was so inspiring. And my trainer took second overall... woot!

FRIDAY ~ CELEBRITY PARTY. Went as race-car driver Danica Patrick. Two piece racing suit, red with black/white checkered trim... pants and a cropped zip-up jacket. FUN!!

SATURDAY ~ LOST POWER MID-AFTERNOON ~ Took a walk mid-afternoon to be nosy, check out the tree that fell on the power lines (and of course, the guys fixing the power lines...) My friends bailed on the Hooters girl costumes. So - I went with the dependable. I got my guys, five of them, put them in black pants, black vest and bowtie. Then were my Chippendales. I went as their 'sex kitten' - black leather pants, low cut black shirt, cat ears and whiskers. It was a total hit... The guys carried me up on stage when we were being judged for 'best costume' .... We beat out the Flintstones and won $1000!!!

$1000??!!! That is awesome!!! Love both costume ideas - and me thinks you absolutely have to post pics now

My second costume of Devil Wears Prada was a bust. I broke the Devil's horns so no one could tell what I was. Regardless, I had enough fun as a Ref the night before to have made my entire Halloween weekend. And yes, it was a popular costume - I saw at least 3 or 4 of 'em out but they all had full shirts with the short skirt whereas I did the half shirt with a regular black khaki button down mini skirt. Thanks again for posting your costume site link!!! I don't think I would have actually bought an outfit like that otherwise.
