Abby's Gallery Crawl

art crawl by wwywblog

After arriving on my Vespa, with my scarf trailing behind me in the wind, I would take off my helmet and shake out my hair into prefect waves. I'd stroll through the galleries, admiring the talent on show, wishing I could do something as creative and amazing. I'd chat with one artist who wondered where I bought my sweet, thigh-high boots and then I'd buy my favorite piece and pay in all origami animals :)

...To an Art Walk

You are going to enjoy a night amongst the local artists and hipsters at the monthly Art Hop

You will walk the streets of a historic neighborhood in the heart of the city, surrounded by beautiful old churches and charming art galleries...

You will explore galleries like this...

And sip wine and nibble cheese like this...

You may decide to stop in a local bar and listen to some live music during your stroll

And end the stroll at a pedestrian bridge, where you can star gaze and dance and relish in the cool night air.

What would you wear to a hip night spent strolling art galleries and listening to local musicians?

Steph's Debate Moderator Clothes

To moderate a great VP debate, I'd start with a smart black tweed skirt and pearls with a blazer that has a hint of color so I look great on TV. I would appear the unbiased professional, but I'd wear personal underoos emblazen with the democrat logo and a naughty punny phrase. Because I would be seated behind a moderator's desk, my shoes would go unseen by "my friends" at home, so I could go with function over form. That means, I'd need to wear tall boots to avoid stepping in the ca-ca the candidates would sprew, with steel toes in case I need to kick one in the behind. My dark sunglasses would mask my eye-rolls, my mega-phone would enable me to speak out if the candidates became unruly. I would also tote a large bag filled with ear muffs when I just can't take anymore empty promises and a ruler to slap the hands of liars. I would wear a stop-watch to give equal time and a whistle around my wrist to blow when time expired.

Oh, what's the bucket for...well, it's been said a Vice President is worth about as much as a bucket of warm spit. I'd like to have a prop sit on my desk as a subtle reminder of each candidate's perceived importance when their hubris takes them too far.

I expect the networks to call anyday to book me for the next VP debate.

...To Moderate the VP Debate?

You were asked to moderate the Biden-Palin debate. What should you wear for your national television debut? Do you wear your Democrat donkey under-roos? Do you wear a Steph mask to hide your astonishment and laughs at Palin's absurd drivel?

What would you wear to moderate a Vice Presidential debate?

Abby's "Kid" Grabbing Costume

No, I am not stealing children in this outfit..just trying to nab me a New Kid ;)

I would wear a subtly sexy outfit with vintage overtones to remind the good men of NKOTB that a mature woman is like a fine wine...aged to perfection....the demure neckline hints at the treasures I hide below, the quaint patent leather T-straps are tasteful and sexy...the vintage heart earrings telegraph the deep and abiding love we could share...the rose ring is a romantic gesture...the thigh-highs are a throwback to simpler times..when a lady was a lady...or...

......or, if I really wanted to get their attention, i would wear the outfit on the right :)

...to a New Kids on The Block Concert?

When you were 10, you had this poster hanging on your wall...

Yummy! You thought as you planned your grown-up life with Joey...but you got old, NKOTB disappeared and you accepted the sad reality of life as a grown-up.

But life is ok. You moved to a cool city with a big concert venue in the heart of downtown. A concert venue that often attracts hot acts...

You will soon be in the Q arena, watching a show like this. But not just any show...

New Kids on The Block

And suddenly you realize, grown-up life isn't sad. Your fantasties can still come true, only now things are legal! Good, fun things like this...

And this!

Now you need the perfect outfit to draw attention to yourself from the throngs of screaming 30 year old women so that the NKOTB will notice you. Will pull you up on stage. Will sing to you about Hanging Tough. And finally you will get to marry a New Kid.

Steph's Ghost Busting Uniform

Just because it's dark and creepy, doesn't mean I need to be. As a ghost detective, I'd need a good detective trench coat, hat, and gloves to really do my job well. I'd watch Ghost Busters prior to venturing off as part of my continuing education in the field. I would use a modified lobster trap to capture the ghosts to take back to my lab where I would hope to rehabiliatate them, teaching new non-haunting skills like using their powers to mop my floors. And while I ain't afraid of no ghosts, it can't hurt to wear good luck jade earrings and a charm bracelet as my own special talismans.
