Whenever I pass a <a href="http://www.buycostumes.com/" rel="nofollow">Halloween costume store</a>, I check it out with the hopes of finding the right one. But if all else fails, I resort to purchasing from an online store.Ysabellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05071189377745054989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562032584293780619.post-48019936000776270992009-05-21T16:32:46.829-07:002009-05-21T16:32:46.829-07:00I love to hear people's costume ideas!

I love the idea of becoming someone else for an evening. I have a short story I started writing about a woman who moves to a mountaintop lake area. During the off season the visitors leave and the townies have a Halloween party on this sacred ground. When they put on their costumes, they act out their parts which makes for horror and eroticism in a crazy fashion. I think it's fun. My hubby's band does heavy metal from the big 80s and sometimes they dress in the big hair and outfits and it's really sexy! People are just different when they're in character. You know that Resident Evil--the third one? That outfit she wears with the very short shorts and trench coat. I sat and stopped the movie and sketched it out. I adored that costume! I thought I'd incorporate some of the elements into mine. I think I'd die if I lived in a place where folks don't like to dress up. I say, go into the big city, and have a great night--Halloween lands on a Saturday this year. That's why I'm doing a party, I can have it on Friday and then still enjoy Halloween on Saturday. I'm sure come October every post will be about Halloween, but I've had to start carving the numerous headstones for the yard to get it done ahead of time before I get busy in the fall with ghost hunting activities and commitments. No doubt, I'll post the picture of me in the costume too--if I don't look ridiculous. hee heeSharon Dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13609356325356264202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562032584293780619.post-73844879297420681262009-05-21T16:13:55.781-07:002009-05-21T16:13:55.781-07:00I love Halloween, however, I haven't dressed up fo...I love Halloween, however, I haven't dressed up for the past six holidays. The reason? In this tiny town adults who dress up at Halloween without small kids in tow are regarded with suspicion, sometimes to the point of harassment. (But then this is also a town where if Halloween falls on a Sunday they cancel the holiday.) The first October I lived here I dressed up as a ladybug, stocked my bowls with treats, put o' lanterns in the window, and waited for the kids to come. I got two: one six year old girl who was swaddled in an overcoat that covered her fairy costume, and a severely overweight 14-year-old boy who came by twice. Man.<br /><br />I hope I will find some Halloween parties in Laramie to attend! I have six years of ideas to try out. I LOVE your Resident Evil/Tomb Raider idea. I've wanted to go as Lara for quite some time, only wearing something other than butt-high hotpants. I liked Alice's outfit in the second RE movie. ...Maybe I could be Jill Valentine and scary it up by being part zombie? Unsettling the fanboys would be fun.Celynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03434168982956403379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562032584293780619.post-49638209630278115832009-05-21T14:23:41.833-07:002009-05-21T14:23:41.833-07:00It's always fun to try and be creative for Hallowe...It's always fun to try and be creative for Halloween. I was a tube of toothpaste one year and made the costume myself. A long time ago we hosted a Halloween party at our house and had a blast decorating. Almost all the decorations were made by us. Our friends that worked at the nuclear plant, came as radioactive waste....pretty clever. My daughter and a friend went as dead cheerleaders one year to a party. They made the costumes themselves and they turned out so good. I haven't been to a party on Halloween for some time now, just sit home and watch Ghost Hunters Live and hand out candy.Julie Fergusonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10460274888229792456noreply@blogger.com
