    Default Halp!

    I suddenly have a Halloween party to attend.

    I have 2 weeks to scrape together a costume for said party.

    I have no ideas and limited time due to work.

    Send Link.



    Along with suggesting cheap/easy/awesome costumes for me, let us discuss your great feats when coming up with costumes, Halloween or otherwise, on the fly.

    Do You have a business suit? Do you have a suitcase? Get glowsticks, red. Line the suitcase with it so it glows red. Wear the suit. Get some cheap devil horns and make some "contract for souls" for your suit case. Then walk around the party being the devil and offer deals for souls .BAM.

    Yes it is a suggestion.
    Well, you need a skirt or black pants, which you probably already have.
    Red, black and white makeup, quite easy to find.
    A corset.
    A baseball bat or a gun.
    Gloves.
    Boots.

    Hmm yeah, maybe it's not as easy as I thought it would be.

    1. Ease of manufacture: 2/10
    2. Cost of manufacture: 10/10
    3. Mobility: 1/10
    4. Impact: 15/10

    Ada Wong from Resident Evil (doesn't matter if she's Asian and you're not). If you have a plain red dress there you go or just get one at a thrift store and cut it. Heels, Velcro from an arts and crafts store for the gun strap and a toy gun that you can spray paint if isn't black already. The spray paint will probably be the most expensive thing. Not much effort involved and cheap.

    My sister's first gf has been dressing up as Wonder Woman for years. Red one piece swimsuit, can't remember what they did for the skirt, but back then, the cuffs and crown were made from yellow construction paper. She won many a costume contest with that.
