    In not actually doing anything for Halloween anymore (unless you count exhausted hospitality employee as a costume) but my original plan was that a friend and I were going to dress up as Power Rangers.

    Either a vampire nun or a zombie nun, depending on which accessories I get this weekend. This is mainly because I have a nun costume already from TedFest.

    A sexy ladybird or a sexy bumblebee, I haven't decided yet. Either way, it's going to be sexy.

    Ok I might be going as Veronica Lake or Magenta from the rocky horror show except blonde.

    Prob Veronica lake though. I have a red dress that would work and it's really just the hair and make up then and it can pass for normal.

    And I like Veronica lake.

    Witch...surprisingly few people go for the old classic and I have a fabulous witches hat. Last year I was pregnant and did the zombie baby thing which was fun- especially when the baby kicked and the little arms moved :D

    Haha! I never go as sexy anything (I already am! wha wha! wink wink!) but this is hilarious. I'm tempted to steal your idea...

    So many people put much effort into their outfits and they look great and I like that a lot. I wish I could do that. This year and last year and year before that too, money restrictions has be dressing up as a witch. I have a plain black outfit which (skirt and top) which I make do with and I have a witches hat that I bought a few years ago and that's it. The rest then is just accessories.

    Torn between a Sim (I made a light up plumb bob last year- you know the little green diamond thing over their heads?) and a robot. Like a proper, cover a box with tinfoil, old school robot. It depends on how much time I have this week before Friday!!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,103 ✭✭✭misslt


    I'm going as a genie. I was in H&M on Friday and spotted a HUGE pair of harem pants so I took them and about 5000 gold bangles and ordered a lamp on amazon :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,664 ✭✭✭doctorwhogirl


    I'm going as Twink.

    Platinum wig, black top with my guns on show and small dog teddy.

    And a mad look in my eyes.

    My neighbour forced me to buy a semi sexy queen of hearts costume today. First time I will have dressed as anything sexy so we will see how it goes

    I must say, it took me a few attempts to get the victory rolls right. They probably werent even that good in the end but i think i looked the part anyway!

    Im going as Flapper with an added twist of wearing a masquerade mask that I recently bought and just want an excuse to wear the mask and matching gloves. Can't wait to wear the mask


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,070 ✭✭✭✭pq0n1ct4ve8zf5


    I'm torn between either just drawing a compass on a t-shirt where all the points are north (one direction!!! GEDDITT??) or going as a halloween costume. That involves spending about ten minutes and twenty quid in the two euro shop and getting a mix of a load of different costumes (fairy wings, witch's hat, green face-paint, devil's fork thingamajig etc.).

    So this is probably what I'm going as this Friday (after 34 years of dressing up, I've ran out of ideas and I'm also stony broke right now). Do you think there's any chance at all that people might think I'm dressed up in a burka/hijab/Niqab etc. with a bikini over it? Not looking to cause offence, just have some fun!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,495 ✭✭✭✭eviltwin


    I'm going to an 80's themed party and going as Bosco.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 533 ✭✭✭Any key?


    Teenage Mutant ninja turtle, group of us doing it...never thought at this stage in my life I would be involved in a debate as to why I should get to be Michealanglo


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,551 ✭✭✭panda100


    Going as sookie stackhouse. I have my
    Merlottes waitress outfit and tray of plastic true blood :) been practicing a vampire neck bite from YouTube videos. It's amazing what you can do with a bit of red lipstick and eyelash glue!
