Hello everyone,
I'm super excited that my first chance to perform is coming up, and also nervous cause I really want to make a good impression. It's possible that I could get some students or other gigs from the exposure I get at this festival. Problem is, I need to "fit in" with the festival theme (it's called the Dance of Love festival for Valentine's day). I was thinking of going a bit punk and wearing something Ed Hardy-style with a tattoo heart design on it. But what to pair it with????? My music choice isn't very "Love" themed, so I need to make up for it in costume. Or maybe I should make myself an "I (heart) hooping" t-shirt and wear lots of red and pink? Any advice is greatly appreciated :)

An Ed Hardy outfit might be cool--maybe you could wear some fishnets and boots with it, and put temporary red or pink stripes in your hair? That would fit with the punkish theme you were thinking about.
Or, instead, you could do some kind of cupid outfit--have a fake bow and arrow. Wear some pink or red flufflies/boot covers. You could also do some fun stuff with your makeup--draw a heart shape around your eyes. Orrr, make a heart shape on your lips like this.
Try googling some images and see what you can come up with. :) I hope this helped!
Love the lips! have to keep that in mind for possible halloween costume/makeup :) The song is "Lost in a Crowd" by Rusted Root, and as I work on the choreo, it's becoming more about love and I'm finding ways to add some nice gestures to give it a "soft" feel. And I got an outfit, seeing your comment just reminded me that I've gotta bring it home this weekend and try it on w/makeup and everything. Then I'll post a pic here.
Thanks for your suggestions!!
