Dear Shelley,
I'm having a hard time coming up with a Halloween costume. Heard any
good ones lately?

Dear Pickles,
On the subject of Halloween costumes I've had the same trouble, but i think
that it is solved. To remedy the problem i looked at a series of questions:
Is the event I'm going to themed? Will I be indoors? What do I really want to
say with my costume?
I stepped back and answered those questions and came up with more! I'm going to
an indoor Halloween party with a theme, since the theme is Movie Characters I thought of
my favorite movies and what I could actually pull off...
Leeloo Dallas Multi Pass Shortish red hair, but do I
really want to run around in THAT
outfit all night? PASS!
Maude Lebowski Great idea, but again do I want to run around in a robe saying “vagina” all night?
The
last two ideas are both doable and I still haven't narrowed them down as of
11:59 PST on October 19, 2007.
#1 Lotte Schwartz
(Cameron Diaz in Being John Malkovich) the only real work is making
myself really plain, not the ideal for Halloween but also it is the point...
#2 Samantha Baker
(Molly Ringwald in Sixteen Candles) ugly 80's bridesmaid dress and an innocent but
sullen look.
Time will only tell what I shall wind up with but it will be a hit because I put some thought and effort into it. And if all else fails I can be a sexy Hermione Grainger, fan fic anyone?
Happy Party Haunting

i know what you mean about the Maude Lebowski thing. i also considered that costume, but the word itself makes some men uncomfortable.
vagina.
