I have been getting some requests to perform lately and I have no idea how to come up with costumes when I am a little to non seamstress.
Any Ideas where/how to get something shiny and sparkly to wear without breaking the bank??? Thanks!!

Wow!! thanks for all the info and no link over load here. I have a pair of melodias and a pair of sassy pants and that is it.
For comfortable hooping pants, try searching Ebay for Salsa pants or Yoga pants. Like these:

Just search for "belly dance" and don't forget to search for international stuff, since most of it is from east Asia. It's also cheap.

Nice tops, I'd get one of them if I were performing.
