i went to the music festival i always go to yesterday – the first of two for the weekend. Had a great time.
It’s a little bit like a modern-day Woodstock. Plenty of food and bathrooms, no actual sex, but lots of singing along and even dancing. People bring chairs and blankets, and while there are sidewalks and some paved areas, a lot of the time you’re on the grass.
Of course, people watching is part of the fun. Dress is pretty casual. From jeans and t-shirts to summery dresses – lots of Hawaiian looking clothes this year. Tie-dye. Pretty, flowing dresses in bright colors. And there’s lots of variety in what people are wearing.
But it is still a conversation-stopper when this woman appears.
She makes her way through the crowd at her own pace, hips swaying, stepping daintily. She has an entourage of sorts – a younger woman, a man, and maybe a teenage boy seem to be with her, but at a little bit of a distance.
And she’s walking in grass, wearing at least 3 inch heels. Maybe 4. Sodden grass, still muddy from the months of rain we’ve had.
Clearly, i’m fascinated. i watch her pause so people can snap pictures of her a little distance away. Then she heads in our direction. She is waiting in line for lemonade when i approach her.
“Can i take your picture?” i ask. It is not really like me to do this, and i don’t know why it doesn’t feel awkward, but it doesn’t.
And – as you can see – she turns to me and poses graciously.
So ~ here’s my question ~ what is she doing? What’s her story?
The thought that flashes through my mind at the time is ~ and this just goes to show how much kink is in my life ~ is that her Dom had said she could go to the festival, but he was going to dictate what she wore.
But i don’t think that really covers it. So i thought i’d share the mystery with youall.
Love a mystery.
@Mick – It is fun, isn’t it? aisha
I think vanillamom is the perfect candidate to fill in the gaps for us all. 🙂
@Nick – Actually, I was thinking the same thing – great minds work on the same lines, right? aisha
Cool 🙂
🙂 Cool
@K,
Omigosh, i just rescued your comment from spam, only to discover it was already here! O, well.
Thanks,

I’m sure there’s a good story behind this post/picture!
She sure looks out of place all dressed up .. but she looks happy as a clam.
And I agree.. Nilla would certainly be able to fill us in on the details.
I do like your take on her Dom allowing her to go but dressing her~ grin
@Nancy,
I know, she’s enjoying every minute of it. Which is cool. I’m glad you like my theory. It’s funny, when I thought it, I saw it – the picture of her and then a caption, like one of those retro-looking magnets…
Thanks for commenting!

Yes she’s a sub, but his orders on clothing weren’t specific to that day. He likes her all dressed up so she complies whenever possible, with clothes, makeup, hair, accessories. She’s forbidden to wear pants, doesn’t own a pair of jeans. He likes her feminine, wants her figure showing for him and the world, so she has shifted forever away from the flowing hippie skirts and embroidered tops and flat sandals she used to wear before he made her His. She funks it up when she can, loves leopard and bright colours and her exhibitionist soul loves attention. And that parasol? That’s a new acquisition. It’s attention getting and fun and it means she doesn’t have to wear a hat.
@Sin,
Yes. I like your story.
Except, of course. for what may be a mildly disparaging reference to flowing hippie skirts. I felt a pang of loss for that.
But yes. Absolutely.

Aisha, you do get that flowing hippie skirts however fun and free aren’t super sexy right? And yes of course anything that makes you feel sexy is… but…
@Sin – Really, really? Not sexy at all????
{laughing…}
Ok, I know that. I do. 🙂
