WACKY TACKY CHRISTMAS PARTY COSTUME IDEAS
 
Please provide some cute Christmas costume ideas for a couple going to a sorority's "Wacky Tacky Christmas Party" Be original.

Thanks

Wrap yourself in tinfoil and go as a strand of tinsel.


That kind of idea?




ETA: Hey Mods, can we get a move to the Social forum? I'd hate for a PNM to think that someone's Rush Theme is Wacky Tacky Christmas.;)

I wouldn't spend the $130 they want for this on-line - but I think with craft foam it would be pretty easy to replicate for far less.

Herbie the Elf and Yukon Cornelius.

dress up like a grandma and then paint hoof prints on your back. The other person could be the reindeer.

SthrnZeta 11-28-2007 03:18 PM

I second the move.

And I love the Grandma idea!!!

You can never go wrong with the bunny costume Ralphie wore in A Chistmas Story. Not sure what the other person could be though....

FSUZeta 11-28-2007 04:41 PM

maybe randy in the snowsuit that won't let you put your arms down?

O Christmas Tree...

It's the present feet that do it for me.

I was thinking along the lines of those great tacky appliqued blinged up sweaters, kitschy dangle earrings, horned rim glasses, stirrup pants for her....

polyester pants and cosby christmas sweater for him with a comb over :) :) and a garland "scarf" around his neck

Think SNL skit material

FSUZeta 11-28-2007 05:43 PM

oohh, sansabelt pants for him....be still my heart!

sageofages, love your suggestions!

Brilliant!

What about wrapping yourself in holiday themed paper and putting a big bow on your head?

I'm going to a "Bad Holiday Sweater Shebang" next weekend! Everyone attending the party has to wear a god-awful holiday sweater/vest/tie and the ugliest one wins a prize!

I have a really tacky bedazzled Christmas vest that my Mother-In-Law thought I needed for some reason. I would be more than willing to lend it to you!

My husband actually took a picture of me when I was opening it. He caught that split-second look of WTF before I covered it with a smile and thank-you. I had to distroy the photo before the MIL found it!

Make a dress/smock out of green material. Pin ornaments all over yourself. (i did this for a halloween costume once)

AOII BAMA MOM 11-29-2007 09:26 PM

Thanks Everyone for your great ideas.

All ideas were incorporated.

The Male Date is going as a Christmas Tree. He is wearing green sweats and will be wrapped in garland and a string of christmas lights. Ornaments will be attached to his sweat suit. He will have an angel attached to his head while wearing a musical Christmas tie and will have gifts tied to his shoes. During the party--he will be bringing an extension cord so that he can plug himself in--periodically--Yikes.

The female will be a Christmas package. She found a Huge Christmas gift bag and cut out the bottom to slide herself in. Ribbons will be attached to the top of the bag and tied around her neck. She will have a HUGE RED bow attached to her head.

They found everything at the dollar store. Cost $15.00, memories- priceless.

I will be sure to share pictures!! Thanks everyone!!!

I love it! Don't forget the nasty looking casserole dish with a biohazard sticker on it!

And the guy has just got to have his shirt hanging out of his zipper!

LOL...I love it!

If it were me in the tacky sweater and stirrup pants, I would also bring an awful looking fruit cake as my hostess gift.

When I read through this thread all I kept thinking of was the holiday Friends episode when they couldn't find a Santa suit. "I'm the Holiday Armadillo!"

ThetaPrincess24 12-09-2007 04:30 PM

What does this thread have to do with recruitment?
