Early Halloween costume thread 2012

I'm actually dressing up this year. This is rare!

We are going to a party where everyone is to be dressed up as a Wes Anderson film character. Except us. My boyfriend and I are going to be a cat (me) and a scratching post (him), who play the Statler and Waldorf-esque commentary of all the films being celebrated. I'm still looking for more layers of complexity.

Made my binder today, so me too. Suddenly worried (after too much google time tonight) that this costume might be overdone. Apparently you can already buy the costume online! Oh well, I'm doin' it, it's practically finished.

I had a feeling that one would blow up.

Ok I'm going to wear tap shoes with it.

I decided on a costume!

I already bought a similar-ish gray jacket, purple ribbon, and fake flowers. Now I just have to print out the USA patches to tape on the jacket and make a fake medal. My face is going to hurt from imitating that expression all day.

I'm thinking either Bjork in the swan dress or the murderous new wife candidate from Audition.

Audition Audition Audition Audition

Also, I dunno about the whole Nicki Minaj thing... I may not dress up at all. Hell, it's Samhain, I may just party by myself.

I second this.

Another Halloween party. I think I'm switching the costume up if I go anywhere else. My trash kept falling off.

I think it is the winner. Mostly because I couldn't find a white skirt appropriate for the bjork idea.

OMG creep. Awesome. I'm so creeped out by your costume. (Although the only thing that really scares me is Javier Bardem as Chigurh.)

That is crazysauce! At any rate, ours are going to be way awesomer, right? Mine's about half done, will probably be putting the finishing touches on it on Saturday right before the party! Just like last year....

I'm actually most excited about my dog's nyancat costume. I've been working on it for over a month off and on and it's going to be SO. CUTE.

Mine is def way awesomer than any I've seen on the net so far! Still working on clever spine label.

If I could rock it, I'd be Chigurh for Halloween.

My hair is super, super red. So I'm trying to do something that allows me to keep my hair.
So...Willow from Buffy (of course) or Alanna (from The Song of the Lioness quartert by Tamora Pierce. I have a sword and scabbard).

Neither is very exciting, but I have the means of clothes and accessories for both already!

Go as Poison Ivy! Or, Mary Jane from Spider Man. I did that one year. I have the same hair issue!

Dress up as Merida! you would need a cloak and a bow.

No creep, you can not stop being crack fox! Your costume rules the universe! Just staple or sew your garbage on so it won't fall off!

I had it safety pinned, but it kept tearing out of the pin. I pretty much just left a trail of garbage behind me all night long. I should've taken a picture of the Captain Crunch cereal box on my back... my pride and joy.

Okay so I forgot, what is this you've gone as?

Adam Crisis · **Posted:** Sat Oct 27, 2012 1:12 pm

Mars · **Posted:** Sat Oct 27, 2012 4:47 pm

Yup, my grammar's real good these days! But, I'm still curious as to the outfit!

I threw together a Madeline costume with a dress I already had, a hat and a scarf...my hair is red right now but I wish it were long still! Oh well, I don't want to wear a wig.

Here's a selfie preview...the dress really is blue, not black.
