Ooh what a good topic.Last year I went as pippy longstocking.It turned out really good.People stopped me at walmart to take their picture with me,lol.LOL
 
I still havent figured out what I'm going to be yet.I'm kind of a last minute idea person.
 
The cruella de vil idea is awesome.That would be a really fun costume.

My boyfriend and I are thinking of going as the "Reno 911" cops, he wants to be the one with the short shorts (the names escape me right now) and I want to be the blonde one. But, I also would love to be a playboy bunny and have him be Hef...that that's a little out of character for him, lol. I like the cruella and pippy ideas! Those sound awesome!

I am looking for an authentic Vegas show girl costume! I'd love to find one at a reasonable price with the huge head gear and all. Trying to figure out what my boyfriend could be with me to "match".   Tom Jones? LOL...

How about some "Rat Pack" guy like Frank Sinatra or maybe just a obvious "high roller" with lots of bling, great shades and a cigar?

i dont think i'll be dressing up this year, but in recent years i've always dressed as a witch (my husband always says i look perfect as one, what does that mean i wonder?)..........but it is a pretty good costume, and all the little kids in the neighborhood get scared: i use the typical witch costume props, but i slather my face and neck with Queen Helene Mint Julep Mask.....which is dull green, and once it dries it cracks, so i look like i have dry cracked green witch skin......BOO!

You guys are so awesomely creative.  The best I ever do is to go as a bag of trash.  You know....wear a black long sleeve t-shirt and tights and then cut holes in a trash bag for arms and legs.  Paint your face black, wear a black stocking cap and tie string around your neck.
 
Of course you need to stuff the bag with bunched up paper balls or peanuts.  I actually won a costume contest for this but was very embarrassed because it was an emergency costume.
 
And of course I could not go to the bathroom all night because once I got the trash in place in the bag I could not risk removing the bag.  That part was painful.  :-(
That which doesn't kill you makes you stronger or drives you totally insane. :-)

  Wow great topic for a lurker like me.  I couldn't resist commenting.  Karen that is a great idea to be a bag of trash.  That would be easy.  I would love to be Marie Antoinette since she is so popular now but have no idea where to start.  It even sounds expensive.

And I bet your skin looks fab once you wash that off!!

Everyone is telling me to be Jessica Rabbit, and try to get my bf to be Roger. But that seems hard to do for cheap! Off to the thrift store to try to find the dress!

Naked Eye, he can be Hugh Heffner and you a Playboy Bunny. My hubby and me did it 2 years ago, and everyone went crazy...it wasn't that expensive!! He can wear some Bright Pijama set and big sunglasses and you can get away being very sexy!
Is a good custome to show off your sexyness.LOL

We're all going to cross-dress at work.  It should be very interesting.  One of my male co-workers actually went and bought some high heel shoes in his size to wear (along with a corset and leather mini skirt).  He's going to borrow one of my wigs. 

I'm just going to wear a football jersey and a baseball cap and try to create some facial hair somehow. 
Hair type: 1a/f/i
