Last year I couldn’t think of anything clever enough, so for Halloween I went as my dog. She’s white with a huge black spot on her eye, so I wore all white, painted a huge black spot on my eye, and wore her collar and leash around my neck (at least people got a kick out of leading me around …) The problem with me is that I want an awesome costume, but I don’t care enough to spend a lot of time brainstorming about it, so then I’m left sans-costume. Or dressing as my dog.
Oh, and I refuse pre-packaged costumes. No creativity!
Tonight I think I’m headed to that vintage store on S. Congress next to Parts and Labour–New Bohemia maybe? and if there’s nothing there, maybe the big Goodwill at Mopac & 183 to get some inspiration. A friend found inspiration at Buffalo Exchange (Robin Hood) and another is going the prepackaged “Sexy” route with a stop at Tabu Lingerie … Major Trouble? Hahahaha. Also easy enough to make on your own … hmmmm …
I’ll keep you posted on my quest, but please post ideas/places to look if you’ve got good ones!!
