I love the hair, and would somehow like to use it in a masquerade themed HA that looks alright. Anyone have any ideas, as this was a sleepy 5AM creation that I don't really like very much. Thank you in advance!

Hair is the RedHot Rockabilly Coil Wig

What's your budget, and what is the look you're going for? General simplicity? Ballroom dressy, or steampunky, or punk rocky?

Going with general, simplistic dressy, I had a few thoughts.

You could depart completely from the standard dress theme and toss on a .

You could dress up the shoulders with or although the wig itself provides a little contour on the shoulders, and that might be too much red/contrast.

What I would definitely do, if it were me, is immediately ditch that orange ribbon belt and do something to bring out those reds and golds instead, like: layered over layered over to bring down some of the red of the hair. The gold in the beaded belt would also pick up those cream/gold highlights in the wig.

I'd also suggest bracelets or gloves, like or even under a bracelet or two.

You could consider a simple necklace to help tie in the bronze of the mask/eyes/lips, such as or or or .

If you want to go steampunky/punk rocky, that's a different strategy all together. xD At the very least, I'd suggest a different belt color than orange, and at the very least a bracelet and/or a necklace to dress it up a bit.

I love the ideas! I'll definitely look into them. My budget isn't necessarily substantial as I AM a new user, but a lot of these I can afford and expand on. : ) Thank you!

Also, happy birthday! xoxo

Thank you! n__n

A few of those are found in the Steamworks Menagerie, so if you've been dancing and have a few trinkets to spare, they might be even more affordable than you think. :3

[edit] A couple of more affordable, reddish belts are or . I don't think they're quite the right shade, but it could work in the meantime. There's just not much in the way of gold waist items that are afforadable. :c
