MY FIRST OUTDOOR PERFORMANCE

ExcalibureFaire, 2000
On my head I'm wearing:
a skull cap in the same fabric as my coat trimmed in a coin headpiece from India;
waist-length braid extensions;
my tribal makeup for the season;
hammered earring and necklace set from Morrocco I found at Goui-Goui African Imports in Austin, TX for $35!
my fake pearls and participants disk.
On my torso I'm wearing:
my gomlek;
a red china-silk anteri that buttons up the back;
a light green hip-length anteri with gold string lace front;
and my outer Yelek (turkish coat).
On bottom I'm wearing Early Ottoman open-bottom salvar (oops, no stockings!); my sparse tassle belt;
my finger crocheted tassle net skirt (the green and white thing; all the white and green tassles are attached to it);
my green striped tie-belt;
and a strip of jingly coins sewn to a soft-leather belt.
On my feet are the cheap shoes from Bald Mountain Dreamshoes ($50, 7 years old, and still comfy and intact!)
