Halter Hotties Try On Super Hero Alter-Egos (With A Little Help from our Friends)

When we’re not imagining ourselves as Bond Girls or sixties-era TV queens like Jeannie (I Dream of…) we sometimes like to don our superhero hats here at HHHQ (Halter Hotties Headquarters).

We love to think of ourselves as the back-baring near-deific entity who comes to the aid of damsels in wardrobe-distress, offering a fun, sassy, glam, and eco-sensitive way out of many a fashion emergency.

Last weekend, while we hung out with some new friends from the Ladies Who Launch booth at the Northwest Women’s Show, we realized we could band together and become an all-girl-power version of the SuperFriends.

We would become the Wonder Women of Date Preparation.

So we hear the call of the gal who screams, “eeeek! He asked me out, and he’s HOT –I am… notsomuch right now. HELP!!!”

We spring into action...

First on the scene, Annette and Felicia, from the Seattle Sugar Bar Sugaring Studio, come to our distressed friend’s facial-hair aid, banishing that unsightly moustache and creating the perfectly arched brow.

Leslie Morand follows soon behind, with facial healing and relaxation –not to mention beauty products like the Jane Iredale line-- pulsing through her magic fingertips.

Our gal is feeling a bit more ready to meet Mr. Hottie McHottiepants, but… wait. She can’t just have all her wonderful new Jane Iredale products floating around in a paper bag, or her purse…right?? Before she can even gather a bead of worry-sweat on her forehead, in swoops Veronica Mayo, offering up her fabulous Vemayca bag as a beautifully practical solution to that little problem.

Oh, but what to wear?!!! Our hottie-to-be begins biting her beautifully-colored lip, but before dread can even consider settling in at her breast, in swoop Halter Hotties! We offer up a flirty little number like "Palace Garden" and she smiles a fabulously bright, worry-free smile…for a moment.

“But,” she stammers, “I have no idea what I’m doing for this date. This is a fabulous top, and I love it, but…” before she can continue

her statement,

Mary Boisselle from Ace of Dates saves the day with more ideas than our hottie knows what to do with.

Once she’s narrowed down her top three ideas, we suggest ways to make that same blouse transform, from layering piece for a chilly cruise around Lake Union to flirty, scene-stealing garment scene at the W Hotel’s Concierge bar.

And there, we superheroes will sit with cocktails in our hands and smiles on our faces as we approve of the work we’ve done, and prepare for the next Hot Date Emergency…
