Mermaid Parade 2008

Every year, my mermaid parade costume is inspired by something that I enjoyed or did or saw that year.

This year: TEXAS.

Complete with chaps (everyone keeps saying assless chaps, which is redundant, but fun to say nonetheless) sequins and an Elvis-flair, I was definitely the shiniest mermaid on Coney Island that day.

Strangely enough, my belt buckle, the only part of the costume I did NOT make, was almost as popular as the rest of the outift.
