I'm bumping this thread because its the most recent Halloween thread.

I need to start thinking about costumes for my brother's halloween party. So far, I've thought about
flight attendent
wearing a blue dress and devil horns

But I don't really like either of those ideas either.

Thats an awesome costume, and I kinda wanted to pay for it to be shipped here to borrow for halloween, haha. I was thinking of stealing the idea, trying to make my own over here. But I think in the end, I'm gonna be too damn lazy.

I want to go as the blonde flight attendant from Snakes on a Plane, but I can't find a REAL, good-quality flight attendant uniform ANYWHERE. WTF.

Seriously, and they're totally crappy poor-quality shit. I can't wear that, LOL.

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

This is a peeve of mine too. It's really hard finding a decent costume for a "tween" who is in women's sizes and all the costumes in women's sizes are just plain sleazy. My daughter is having a rough time finding something appropriate.

As for me.. I'm boring. I invested in a really nice Renassaince type dress costume a few years ago and just use it every year. I was bored with that last year, so, for the Cub Scout Halloween party, I just wore all black, put big black circles under my eyes, ratted my hair up and was just sorta freaky/scary. I told the parents who asked that I was a menopausal mom...

What does your daughter want to be? Maybe you two can make something together?

I'm going to be a tower. My boyfriend's going to be a plane.

Hey, if you can't laugh about it, you're letting the terrorists win!

DH and I checked out the local costume shop yesterday. I found a nice red-and-black long dress, but I haven't decided how to accessorize it yet. It's called "Countess" but you could do a vampire look with it... except I can't pull it off - who ever heard of a vampire with a tan?

DH found a "samurai" costume. Just one thing: It's bright orange. When he stepped out of the dressing room to model it for me, I burst out laughing. When I could breathe again, I told him he looked like a pumpkin. He was not happy with me. I'm such a bad wife...

Speaking of "sexy" costumes, about 60% of the costumes for adult women were "sexy" something-or-other. Sexy vampire, sexy cat, sexy purple bunny, you get the idea. I even found a "Sexy Raggedy Ann" costume that was a midriff-baring blue top, a blue miniskirt with a little apron, a red yarn wig, and red-and-white striped stockings. That's just... wrong.

OMG! My step-daughter just came over and brought the costume her mother bought her. It is called Devilish Fairy, but it should be called something more like Devilish Slut! The girl is TWELVE!! She'll be wearing red fishnets, slutty red dress with red fairy wings, red lips & nails (she is such a pale child and the red she has looks just garish!), and then my husband (WTF was he thinking!) bought her red, patent-leather, platform KMFM shoes to complete the look!

I can imagine where her mother bought the costume: Future Sluts "R" Us. Hope you've set your DH straight!

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

I saw one here in Canuckland, that was not necessarily "sexy" (but not frumpy either). It was kinda retro looking. It was blue and had sorta orange trim, and came with a scarf and a hat. It was feminine in a retro-60's sort of way, without being a slutty costume.

I wanted to reprise my pro-choice shotgun wedding bride costume from two years ago, but we're going to a party with a competition for best couples costume, so now I am trying to think of something good for the Conservinator and I to be - I kind of want to do Hansel and Gretel but he's not a big fan of that idea.
