Halloween is juuuust around the corner....

[smalltowngrll]

What are you dressing up as this year?

Last year there were some great ideas and people posted some great pics. Lets do it again this year! But, first, I need some good suggestions! A few of my friends are doing the whole 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' thing. That should be interesting. But, Me?!? I wanna be different! LOL

Last year the girls and I did the four seasons. One of my friend's was pregnant at the time so she went as Mother Nature. I was Autumn!

So, lets just throw out some ideas, pictures, yada yada...then we'll finish this thread off after the Holiday with pictures!!! Yeah? Sound good?? ;D

[Blueflame]

Great thread idea, STG! Last year, I was a "Bavarian beer girl"... this year, I'm planning to be a "rainbow fairy"....

Ohhh, I like the Bavarian beer girl idea. What did you buy for that costume? I also was thinking about something like Pippy Longstocking!

And, we all know what Pez will be..... ;D

New year, same schtick here. Once a Blues Brother, always a Blues Brother

I found a good deal on the costume on ebay.... it's exactly like this one..

... only instead of white thigh-highs, I wore black ones with a black ruffle and black satin bows. :)

[Blueflame]

I found the cutest rainbow "ribbon tutu" for this year's costume. It's actually intended for a little girl, but the waist stretches. I'll be doubling up two of them because I needed two hair scrunchies to to twin ponytails. I'll probably use some colored hair extensions and rainbow-striped thigh-highs over tights (for modesty's sake; the organza ribbons are quite sheer).

Speaking of Halloween, someone around here brought up a related topic. Daylight Saving Time usually ends just before Halloween. From this year forward, Daylight Saving Time will be pushed into November (I think it's November 4th). Therefore, it won't be dark early for Halloween like it has been in the past. That kind of sucks...

It'll still be dark enough to go! Besides, I only dress up for the parties...and well, those will end up indoors and much later! ;D

Ohhh, I could be a football player for Halloween. I have the jersey...just need the pads! ;D

[Spider]

I dont dress up , but I get a kick out of dressing the Kids up ............ My big holiday is thanksgiving , I go all out no expense spared , and I have ot have all of my family and wifes family together .........

[TailgateNut]

I'm going to be a hippie and I'll eat all the candy I bought to hand out to the kids :peace:

No ****. We don't have too many "trick or treat aged" kids in my neighborhood, but it seems that the "meximericans" from surrounding areas bus/drive their "offspring" into our neighborhood to gather supplies. Kind of sickening, but they are just kids!

Maybe I'll hand out carrots and celery sticks this year!;D

[Sassy]

Hey STG...check these out!

[smalltowngrll]

That link doesn't work for me...hmmm, maybe tomorrow at my other computer.

[Sassy]

It takes awhile to load.
Just go to Fredericks of Hollywood and click on costumes.

[Blueflame]

Just bought "The Flash" (no, not a flasher costume... :P) superhero costume for the "mere male"...

[smalltowngrll]

http://www.frightcatalog.com/i/360x360/1101111.jpg

Ok, I think I'm sold on this costume!!

[Blueflame]

That's really cute, STG.... should look great on you. :thumbs:

[BizzyBone7]

Me and my friend are going as this.... Keep in mind we're both in our 20s, I'm 6'3, and were both guys.
However, we're spraypainting the writing out and putting in "Heterosexual Platonic Lifemates" instead. I already tried it on, and it comes about up to my stomach, so if nothing else it should be funny.

So cute, Sass...they're sure getting big, aren't they?

[Sassy]

Well...Tanner is! Trev is still a wimp! LOL!

[smalltowngrll]

How old are they now, Sass?

[Sassy]

10 in Nov and 8 in Feb...I think! I'm gapping out the years they were born...

[Old Dude]

We're having a murder-mystery party a couple days before Halloween (as sort of a substitute for adults) and I'm supposed to be an FBI agent, which means I wear a white shirt, dark suit, and conservative tie. Sunglasses, maybe, but it will be dark in our "mock-casino").

OldDudetheYounger is coming as a Texas Gambler, but he gets murdered halfway through the party and then reincarnates as a sheik. Can't wait to see that one.

[Blueflame]

Sounds fun, OD! :D

[heydensmom]

My room mate and I are having a huge dress up party at our house. Should be loads of fun. I was going to be the wicked witch of the west, but decided on being Gretel the German Beer B**ch.

Change of plans...my friends and I are going in a mardi gras/masquerade theme!! I'll post pics after! This will be fun. I'm in all red and black!!

But, the first order of tomorrow will be the Ducks game...which I'll be going to! Woot! ;D

[BroncoMatt]

Halloween is my favorite holiday. My son and I are going as mad scientists.

My wife is wearing this

My daughter is going as a UCLA cheerleader. She is the blacksheep of the family, doesn't want to do anything evil.

We will be going to the CityWalk at Universal Studios Hollywood. They always have a big family friendly halloween bash. I'll post pics after the event.

[smalltowngrll]

Is that a wig??

I love that costume!!!

[Master___Pain]

I missed this thread somehow. I love Halloween. The wife is going as a Bavarian Beer wench, I knew she would be doing that as soon as she bought the outfit in Munich on our honeymoon. I'm going as a football player. We are heading to a concert and then down town.

Some pics from last year (http://www.orangemane.com/BB/showpost.php?p=1339577&postcount=957)

[Los Broncos]

I'm really into masks, have been my whole life.

Just picked up the pig mask from the movie Saw.

Going to a party Saturday night, then handing out candy here at home i guess.

[Los Broncos]

This is the greatest costume ever.
