I promised to show you mine and Mick's outfits for the Medieval Day..
Now I was looking at wearing one of the wonderful Medieval Dresses, befitting a Lady, but having thought long and hard, I decided that as we will be working around Horse's all day it could be a bit dangerous. Knowing my luck a Horse would tread on it and I'd go arse over tit! LOL Definitely not befitting a Lady..
So we are both going as Knights and have both got the same costume. I got them from Ebay from a lovely Lady called Amanda, if you click on her name it will take you over to her listings. We are both thrilled to bits with them. The material on the arms and head piece looks like chain mail. The Crowns came with the Outfits as well. We just need to get a couple of swords now and wear black trousers underneath with black boots.
Mick tried his on first and couldn't resist messing about in it, hence the title Naughty Knight. Mind you I love the bottom photograph I think the outfit really suits him.. I on the other hand look like a petrified Rabbit caught in the headlights...LOL
Oh lol... poor Mick looks like he hates posing for the camera.
ReplyDeleteLovely outfits but hope it's a cool day otherwise you are going to be so hot.
I think your choice of outfit is better and especially with the horses, but i would have wanted to go the whole hog and have the dress.
Has Harry got his outfit yet?
Whats Ben going as?
Lovely artwork also by your friend in your third post down. Its ever so clever!

Nikki, Mick wouldn't stop messing around, Beast.. Harry's outfit should be here by Monday, just hoping it fits, if not I'll be back on Ebay. Debbie's art work is fabulous. Not sure if Ben is dressing up yet or not! xx
ReplyDeletelol...You do look like a deer in headlights, Debbie, But don't worry...When ever someone takes a picture of me, they tell me the same thing:) It all looks like so much fun!!!
ReplyDeleteWow! What noble knights you two do make! Fabulous. I doubt I'd get Jerry in this unless I plied him with lots of drink and 'naughty promises'! LOL!

now this is an outfit my husband might acutally try... as long as there are no tights involved!!! You guys look great! -ara
ReplyDeleteKatie I really hate having my photo taken..
ReplyDeleteJody I did laugh at your comment. Mick was going to dress up as a Wench with false boobs! LOL
Great outfits, although I think Mick should have dressed up as a wench, LOL
ReplyDeleteYou guys are going to have so much fun!!!
Hugs, Marsha
Ara, Mick doesn't mind dressing up! Oops that does sound naughty..x
ReplyDeleteMarsha he was going too but again I was worried that there might be an accident around the Horses.. But I like him as my Naughty Knight..LOL x
Debbie, your story should be that you are a maiden hiding from the horrible, wicked Baron that wants to marry you. So Mic came to your rescue and loaned you some of his clothes as a disguise. You both look really cool in the outfits.
ReplyDeleteWonderful Outfits Debbie... you both look as if you stepped out of a wonderful Movie (or better yet, history) ...
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the action shots...
I wanna know what happens after the joust/ride... do ye houst a tankard or two...I sure would!
Hugs,
Jodi
You both look fab, your going to have a great, fun day. Hope the weather here in Wales holds out for you and the sun shines. Look forward to seeing photos after the medieval day.
ReplyDeleteYou both look wonderful!
ReplyDeleteCasey I like your thinking. I'll try and remember that story on the day. x
ReplyDeleteJodi, I think we are all having a Bit Of A Do after the event and I'll definitely be having a tankard or two. x
Bear Cabin I'm keeping everything crossed for Good Weather. I'll be taking loads of Photographs to share with you all..x
Cate & David thanks for the comment, but I still say I look like a petrified Rabbit..LOL x
ReplyDeleteI think you look more determined than a frightened rabbit. Great outfits Debbie, its a shame you cant go as a princess though....
ReplyDeleteDebie xxx
Oh, they look so great! How fun to have a hubby that wants to dress up and play along, rather than one like mine that would also need to be heavily bribed to do such a thing! I will cross my fingers for lovely weather for you also :)
ReplyDeleteI absolutely agree! Mick is great in the last pic.Coming to you i suppose ou must get used to the crown. We, Queens of the kitchen, seldom use it and that's why it bothers us.But i think you should have chosen a dress with a split gown to be able to ride.It should have been so romantic.....Can you see my eyelashes flatter? ;o)) big hugs to you all,my valliant knights
ReplyDeleteWhat fun people you must be! I could never get my husband to dress up...well, maybe after a few drinks.
ReplyDeletesuper!!! lovely outfits..
ReplyDeletenice picture's..
real kings knigts!!
i hope you have nice weather..than.

What great outfits :-). Takes me back as my Mum used to run a fancy dress business shop. We did used to have fun. Mum used to make some of the outfits that where rented out so she always had lots of interesting trims ;-)
ReplyDeleteFabulosos los trajes, parecen ustedes de verdad unos caballeros medievales. lo han conseguido.
ReplyDeleteGreat!
ReplyDeleteMick reminds me of Kenneth Branagh, especially in that last picture!
I look forward to seeing pics of your Medieval Day.
