We're attending another show on February 12th with Boxcar Burlesque at the Union in Athens at 10pm.

Many of you ladies have asked me for some ideas as how to dress a little - or a lot - burlesque(ish).

Here's a few photos to give you some ideas.....
And below are tips to get you started.

* Silk and satan
* Frilly underware and skirts
* Garters & Garter Belts
* Stockings

* Underclothes a little too small
* Suspender belts
* Red lipstick
* Eyeliner, smokey eyes, cat-like flicks in the outer corners
* Painted nails
