I found an Irish themed dress for this years renn. Right now I am in the process of trying to find some renn clothing in the theme "dark angel" for my 17 year old.
The wings are the difficult part. She wants long, flowing ones, not the little ones that sit up on the shoulder blades.

We have a great Renfest in Kansas City. My DD's singing group from highschool got dressed up and sang strolling through the festival one year. It was really great. And they have the best smoked turkey legs EVER! It's worth the trip just for that! I get my frankincense soap there too. And have my fortune read....and shop.....and.....Ok, I love the Renaissance Festival. I've never dressed up for it though. Not that I wouldn't if prodded...........Lol!

I love Renaissance Festivals. When I was in college, I would dress up and go to several every fall.

It's held in Oct-Nov on weekends.

The fall makes it more confortable for the heavy costumes. I just love the Joust!

"Ensooth, good gentles, thine ears I do beseech as I stand and declare forth proper introductions: Indeed I do, Sir Richard Anthony Terence Francis Wegleswerth, the Pure. 15th Duke du Masion Blanc du Galahad, France; Esteemed member of the Star Chamber, Arbitur Elagantrium to our most noble Majesty Henry VIII" Yep... have been stricken with this affliction for (ya ready?) eighteen years at "The Texas Renaissance Festival" in Plantersville, Texas... Lovin' every minute of it... and, yes, Ah luv me sum chickens...
