I just finished sewing my costume this past weekend. I'm going as Poison Ivy and made a green bustier with black lace overlay and a multi-layered skirt consisting of a micro mini chartreuse raw silk lining covered with two layers of chartreuse/darker green/green brown chiffon-type material. The front of the skirt is very straight and then there's a big poufy bustle in the back and I sewed ivy leaves on top of and under some layers and all along the back waistline. I'll post pics soon, and definiely when I'm wearing it in full hair and makeup, but I am ASTOUNDED at how well it turned out!!

I was thinking I wanna be a gunslinger from stephen king's dark tower series. unfortunately it involves no makeup.  and everyone will think I'm just a cowboy. ): I might think of something else.

I'm going as David Bowie. I'm doing the Aladdin Sane lightning bolt across my face, with a white mini-dress, or white top and white mini skirt. Sparkly white fishets, and silver pumps. Or, silvery fishnets, and white pumps. I dont wanna do much because I have a research paper due the day before, so I'm probably gonna be like braindead.

i think i'm going as margot tenenbaum from the royal tenebaums. i've got two male friends of mine going as eli cash and richie tenenbaum. if you've seen the movie, it'll make sense, as the costumes are going to be almost exact. we've been scouring thrift and vintage stores looking for clothes. i've already found a vintage lacoste striped polo dress, i'm looking for a faux fox fur coat, and i need to get a blonde wig. makeup, obviously, will be creamy skin and a lot of black eyeliner, lol.

I'm planning on being Snow White. Last year when I was at the mall looking for a costume I saw a girl in a little Snow White dress and accessories. Hopefully I'll be able to find it. Make-up will proably be simple: liner, lashes, red lips.

Im planning to go out as a gothic rainbow pixie. Its kinda the split sides of my personality. Half the time I can be sweet rainbow loving and the other half evil and dark. I thought it'd also give me a reason to do the rainbow eyes using mac without people looking at me like im totally nuts.

although I'm doing my own interpretation, rather than using something from the books. Obviously, the makeup is all white with swirly black liner.
I've been planning this costume for over a year, I'm so excited  Oh, and my fiance is going to be Dream.

And my boyfriend is going as a gynecologist lol Dr. Howie Feltersnatch.
These are not child friendly lmao

I'm going to Amanda Palmer from the dresden dolls. It would be super-cute if I could get my boyfriend to be Brian Viglione, but he never would. :C
but my friend Katie is going to be Karen O and we will be quite the pair.

I don't know if I'm going to do anything for Halloween... only if I can find some party or event to go to, or some friends to trick or treat with. (Shuttup, of course I'm not too old to trick or treat, I like dressing up and I want candy. Heheh.)
If I do dress up, I'll be a panda. Sort of. The main reason I want to do that is for the makeup. The costume will probably be something skintight and white all over, with minimal (ahahaa) black clothing over that. Also black gloves, black shoes, and black legwarmers. And I'll probably wear a black fedora that I have, which has nothing to do with the costume, but it'll be funny.
