While this wasn't the first auction to be held at Waxing Rhapsodic, it was certainly the first where she had tried to promote attendance with costumes. For a few others there was yet another incentive, that of winning the little 'popularity' contest that she had set up. Models certainly wouldn't pass up the chance of the photo shoot for a magazine...but who knew if it would actually be a model who won?<br/><br/>With the help of some hair wax, Aline had managed to style her hair into casual waves. A simple red tanktop (http://i709.photobucket.com/albums/ww91/violaerin30/Tingzhi/aDSC_0759.jpg) was paired with a pair of dark blue pants (http://www.darkcornerclothing.com/i/jeans/33310_Gothic_Lace_Up_Corset_Punk_Pants.jpg). Short boots (http://www.chloecom.com/images/Alexander_mcqueen/1/1.jpg) and throwing on a cobwebbed sweater (http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e346/runnickyrun/part%20II/2009%20AUG/cobwebB6.jpg) completed her wardrobe for the day. Finishing off with a few accessories (http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/d/db/6be9da5452d2eab5c4db986880b9f095.jpg) she briefly wondered what Ingrid would think of her choice of clothing. It was certainly different from her usual look though the usual Aline still shone through. Glancing at herself in the mirror she had to admit that the last minute outfit still looked as if some thought had been put into it...somewhat.<br/><br/>Her reflection shrugged back at her and promptly split in half as the elevator doors slid open. Upon entering, she noted right away that the handful of people who had already arrived were clustered around in one spot. Looking closer it seemed none of the buyers had arrived as of yet. Slight worry nagged at her upon realizing this but it was still early, and who knew? Sometimes it wasn't a buyer who stepped in to bid.<br/><br/>
