LEGENDS for reals

Story Story Night broke out LEGENDS: Stories of Heroes and Epics on Monday. I designated this dress for this blockbuster theme months ago. Reference the LEGENDS preview post.

Held on Memorial Day, this show was a memory maker and celebrator. It was a lovely night. 
And a lovely dress. Scala silk with sequins and beading vintage dress ($48, originally $64-Pursuing Andie).

Maybe not so much lovely hair, but I was going for some unkempt Viking warrior vibe. The lovely Story Story attendee/think taker Donna Vasquez said I looked like Pocahontas gone Vegas. Vivaaaaaaa!

Enzo Angiolini black velvet and gold pumps ($7, thrift store).

Another legendary Idahoan made a special appearance at the night.

Lonesome Larry, the most interesting fish in the world. This project has been a dream of mine since I heard the incredible story of Idaho’s wild salmon several years ago, and then started wearing this awesome fish suit to Idaho Rivers United events. Seriously, when I first met Dan, I was in this suit. Sexy.

Now as a board member for Idaho Rivers United, and in honor of the 20th anniversary of the miraculous solo return to Redfish of this dashing sockeye salmon, I thought of (ripped of from Dos Equis) the concept, and then wrote the website and campaign materials. Bethany Walter designed.

Check out the badassery of Lonesome Larry. You know, if you want to be awesome. Stay thirsty, Idahoans.

Onward and upward.
