Chatterbox: Down to Earth

I really need

I really need help. :(

---------

Okay so Saturday is this big medieval faire thingy that I'm going to with my friends, and I don't know what to be! I either want to be a Princess, or a pauper(ess?) and I have no idea how I can do that! If I want to enter the costume contest (which I do!) I can't have a store-bought outfit (I can have clothes bought from a store, just not like...a store bought costume.). And my mom doesn't have time to sew anything, so what is something I can wear without shopping that would resemble a medival princess or pauper, and mayhaps have a chance of winning the contest? (Or at least not failing miserably.)

back to the Down to Earth

Hi GloWorm! I'm going to the Medievel Times on Sunday! Well anyway, maybe if you have a black skirt and some kind of knitted plain colored sweater? Sorry if that's not what you were looking for, but it's all I've got. Or maybe your mom would have something that you could fit into?

My school has a Medieval Faire! But it's not on Saturday. Weeeeellllll, I suggest wearing a rather fancy long sleeved dress, Make sure it goes far down to about your ankles too. And I do not recommend a pointy hat. Try wearing an embroidery ring with fake flowers twined around it. That's all I have to say on the subject.

Thanks for the suggestions guys. :) My mom and I are going to look for a shirt today, because I have a cute skirt. And if that doesn't work, I'm going as a gypsy.
