I want to be the tooth fairy! I was the tooth fairy in 1st grade, and I think it would be cute/not that expensive. My sister thinks it's lame...

Ok THANK YOU! I don't wanna be something super skanky, and I figured I could pull this off. I'm gonna make it kinda ballerina-ish and girly. I have silver ballet flats. I'll wear tights and make a sweet wand with a big tooth on it. Oh man, I should find that pic my mom has of me in 1st grade. I could be all sparkly and silver/white/maybe light pink.

ETA: Any ready-made costume that includes the word "sexy" is LAME. Sexy flight attendant! Sexy nurse! Sexy devil! JUST NO.

Do you know any flight attendants? Maybe you can just borrow a real uniform from one of them.

You should make some over sized money (like big coins from cardboard & foil) or a giant tooth. I've always had this image in my mind of a small fairy trying to haul around human sized objects.

BONUS POINTS:

Get your boyfriend to dress like Steve Martin in Little Shop of Horrors. Get someone else to be a Venus flytrap (maybe your dog?).

Now I need an idea for a 20's costume party. Any help out there?

Haha nice! He was Mr. Rogers for a costume party this summer, so I think he'll just do that again. He already has a rad sweater, after all. ;)

The tooth fairy costume is definitely happening! I'm going to use the same dress I wore for Sapphire Ball in the spring:

I need to get wings. Probably something like white, silver, or pink. My mom is going to make me a wand! She's rad. She told me to get a cube of balsa wood and a wooden dowel. She's going to carve it then I can paint it and add ribbon streamers.

I also want to get tights/nylons. Remember that sparkly body suit Britney Spears wore? I want nylons like that!

I'm seeing lots of sparkles in my future (makeup, lotion, etc.)

I'm going to be Katy Perry this year. I have the black hair w/ the bangs. I'm going to curl it up, pin some up, wear some really really red lipstick and a cute retro outfit.

I know of a girl who is going as the bloody Lady Gaga a'la MTV VMAs. That should be interesting!

lilzetakitten 10-25-2009 01:09 AM

DH, the pup and I are all going as vampires. The pup is soooo cute in his costume.

I'm going as Alice in Wonderland
Pulling together an outfit rather than buying one, it's more creative that way.

I'm wearing this cute sun dress from urban outfitters, white tights, black mary janes, a black head band and need a white apron

Here's the link to the dress

Lilzetakitten, your dog is adorable!! And very handsome in his costume, I might add.

My bf is being a butt and isn't sure if he's gonna dress up for Halloween. He whined, "But I dressed up the last three years in a rowww!" Tough noogies! Halloween is super fun!

christiangirl 10-31-2009 09:32 AM

I was just invited to a costume party and decided to go as Left Eye. :) It was quite a cheap costume really...I bought a butterfly tshirt and a blue tye-dye tank top. I'm going to put on the tank first, then the butterfly tshirt over it and cut "Crazy Sexy Cool" in the the shirt so that the letters show the blue underneath. Of course, with a signature stripe under my left eye. ;)

Don't forget to take your lighter along. SORRY BUT SOMEONE HAD TO SAY IT.

lovespink88 10-31-2009 12:11 PM

I'm being a ladybug...it's kinda a lame costume, but I had no time to shop this year. I grabbed a few costumes at the store, tried them on, then took what I liked best/what was cheapest lol. I actually wanted to be a chef--I saw a really cute chef costume, but they didnt have my size :(

I just read this article in my local paper and thought of this thread. It reminded me of the posts about "sexy nurse" and "sexy cop", etc.

Girls' costumes: a nightmare on Modesty Street

By Jennifer Davies

It took three stores and more than 30 costumes before Marcela Escobar-Eck and her 11-year-old daughter could agree on a Halloween costume.

As her sixth-grader brought out costume after costume, Escobar-Eck was aghast at the options.

“It was slutty pirate. It was slutty bumblebee. It was slutty leprechaun,” Escobar-Eck says. “I was like ‘no,’ ‘no,’ ‘no.’ ”

Forget your wart-faced witches.

When it comes to Halloween costumes for women, teens and even — a real horror — young girls, sex apparently sells.

My tooth fairy wand! Made mostly by me, but also with carving assistance from my mom and step-dad.

That's repulsive.

I remember the character costumes we had. They basically consisted of a plastic mask with the character's face (Jeannie, Wonder Woman or whoever) and a polyester jumpsuit with the character's name on the front. They were completely UNsexy. The most risque I got was Miss America one year - I tried pushing the sleeves down over my shoulders.

Psi U MC Vito 10-31-2009 04:40 PM

That's horrible. If you are 17 or younger, you have no business dressing ultra sexy. It's especially bad though at the ages we are talking about.

Oh and nice wand Lucy. Looks like it came out nice.

texas*princess 10-31-2009 05:46 PM

Hahaha the comments in that story are hilarious

One guy: "I'm glad I have a son"

Repsonder to post: "That's just as much cause for concern. Teens don't just impregnate themselves"

DSTcretion 10-31-2009 06:06 PM

This year I'm a fairy
Last year I was a witch

GoodTimes 10-31-2009 07:09 PM

I'm going out as Lil Mama at the VMA's. I'm going to creep my way into everybody's picture and do the b-boy pose like she did at the end of the Jay-z performance lol

Psi U MC Vito 10-31-2009 07:45 PM

I wasn't going to dress up, but got invited last second to a costume party. So I just pulled out my old HS graduation robe which in a small miracle still fits.

Cute wand! Very crafty!

squirrely girl 11-01-2009 12:11 AM

i went in pajamas... sorority slumber party!

tld221 11-01-2009 02:50 PM

I went as Cat in the Hat. Whiskers and all. I was really going for a G-rated look (I was working a kiddie party early in the day) and kinda didn't want to be "catcalled" all night with all this T&A I got goin on.

... But then my sister, queen of "slutty (fill in the blank)" costumes, decides my t-shirt, sweats and sneakers needed an upgrade to a tanktop, leggings and heels. Sigh.

She went as a "sexy kitty" which means short revealing dress, tail and ears. Animals, like children, should not be sexy. Jus saying.

LucyKKG 11-02-2009 10:35 PM

Ta da! The tooth fairy!

http://photos-d.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos..._4311074_n.jpg

I kept asking people if they brushed and flossed every day. Then I quoted this plaque my dentist has on his wall: "You don't have to floss all your teeth - just the ones you want t keep." I thought it was hilarious, but that may or may not have been due to beverage consumption.

wolffootball37 11-05-2009 03:23 AM

for next Halloween im thinking of going as a pledge! I wish i had thought of it sooner, now i have to wait a whole year. :(

LucyKKG 11-05-2009 04:18 AM

^^ I do that every year! I have great ideas for costumes on November 1st...haha!
