The Avengers

Photobucket

Friday night we went and saw my boyfriend, Captain Amer- ....er...I mean, The Avengers.

 ......

 We loved it of course, and I was at a loss for what to wear, so I went 40s military-ish. The cap is actually a WWII WAC overseas cap. Cool huh?

 The rest is whatever I had around since I can't seem to win any military uniform auctions on Ebay. That place is where hopes go to die.

 My aunt found me the cap though, and I think it's just perfect. Sam wore one of his many Captain America shirts, and look! We caught him smiling in a picture!

 My hair was done the day before by Kristen Behlings, for a Fab Gabs photoshoot, and I stretched it out to last three days. Kristen is fantastic, I swear she's magical.
