My inner goth kid had to have these

Black Knight MAC, a lipstick so densely pigmented that the color will never grow old or die (well, until I eat something)

Silver vampire teeth charm - c'mon people, the jaw moves, how cool is that?

Yes, I am a small child :P

I've started packing for the SCA event this coming weekend (yes, I drive up Friday, but I'm packing now. Portrait of anxiety, aisle one...)

This involves two completely different sets of clothing: garb (costume) and "mundanes" (everyday/modern clothing). There's very little overlap between the two.

And this isn't even a long or outdoor event!

Regular SCAdians, how do you manage this without overpacking or forgetting something??

Edited to add: this is also a rapier event, so add packing my sword/protective gear to the mix..

for the people with hair

kass_rants is now carrying the book Vintage Hairstyling: Retro Styles with Step-by-Step Techniques.

Based on the sneak preview, if you've ever wanted 20s pin curls or Rosie the Riveter's 'do this is the book to have. Me, I don't have enough hair to bother, but if you do you might want to check it out.
