My favorite is Homicidal Bo Peep, but I'm having a hard time finding a bo peep dress. The dress would make the whole costume, so if I can't find one I won't do it at all. I can find nice ones on the internet, but they are too expensive. I don't want to spend a lot of money on an outfit that I'm going to ruin by tossing fake blood all over it.

Mother Nature would be difficult to do because it's more abstract.

The Butcher idea is funny if you know me. biggrin.gif

Let me know what you think!

80's flashdance girl!! Leg warmers, head band - I don't know how long your hair is, but if you could do the side ponytail - that would be classic! laugh.gif Jelly bracelets (apparently these have made a comeback, so they shouldn't be too hard to find). You'll have to excuse the excitement - I liked the 80's and the music a little too much! biggrin.gif

Last year I went as a "Gold Digger." I wore a slinky gold dress, gold glittery makeup, gold garter belt, and a gold shovel around my neck. LOL

Some other ideas:

- "Cereal" Killer: Wear black, ski mask or black cap, carry a knife, cut out the front of cereal boxes and attach to you.

- Freudian Slip: Wear a slip with the words "Id," "Ego," "Super Ego," etc. written on it.

And my personal fave: pin a baby doll to your butt and go as a Baby Sitter! wink.gif

Mother Nature is easy - just go nekkid. Au naturale, no?

Mother Nature is more abstract... maybe act pregnant and decorate yourself in leaves?

No way, B!

For Mother Nature, I was thinking a flowing dress. Attach fake flowers all over the bottom to make it look like beds of flowers - all different colors. Afix a fake bird perched on the shoulder. Wild, curly hair with leaves in it. Attach a rubber snake to the back of the dress to make it look like its crawling out of my hair, down my back. Attach a bunch of different colored fake butterflies to a headband for a crown. Wrap a long piece of fake ivy from the shoulder, spiraling around the rest of the body and trailing into the flowers at the bottom. Barefoot, of course.

Aww.. that sounds awesome. I voted 80's flashgirl, but if I could change my vote, I would go with this idea. I love it.

I'm going as Bun In the Oven.

biggrin.gif I'm glad someone likes my Mother Nature idea. Everyone else says it's gay. sad.gif

Bun in the Oven biggrin.gif Every year my girlfriend wants to be hotdog and bun. We'd run into each other's arms. laugh.gif But neither of us want to be the weiner.

Yossarian, you perv! laugh.gif I was also thinking about Tinkerhell, (Tinkerbell from hell).
JessicaMarie
Heather,

Since I'm already huge even though I'm not due til the last week of February, this is the perfect year for Bun in the Oven. I'm going to make an oven out of a big box, complete with opening door and rack inside that will fit around my stomach, and then wear a top that leaves my belly exposed. My husband is going to help me paint my stomach to look like a "hot cross bun", complete with wispy steam (veil material) rising from the top! Think I can pull it off?

See if you can find that old margarine commercial (was it Imperial margarine?) with the lady dressed as Ma Nature. You know, she'd beller "It's not nice to fool Mother Nature".

Hell yes! Great idea. Take a picture and let us see the finished product.

Snoopy, I don't remember that margarine commercial.

GMAN and Yoss - We've surfed over tons of sexy adult costumes. They actually have a "Little Bo Peek" one but there is no way in hell I'd be caught wearing it in public. They are more for strippers. It's too cold for those skimpy things anyway!

Years ago, I tried to find black thigh high boots to wear to a Manson concert, but they are all too expensive.

Homicidal Bo Peep will allow for pantaloons to keep my legs warm. Is anyone else dressing up? Dragonlady?

I voted for Mother Nature/Gaia. You could always have a blow-up globe of the Earth for your belly too. You need to start parrusing the thrift stores pronto!

I usually go as a pull toy...

my costume consists only of a pair of roller skates on my feet ... nothing else.

True - but I guess mine isn't very imaginative, huh?

Homicidal Bo Peep sounds interesting.

Little Bo Peep

Replace the shepherd's crook with a battle axe, break out the fake blood, and you're good to go!

Carry a can of compressed air and a squirt bottle of water. Be a hurricane.

laugh.gif Ya'll are too funny. Thanks for the ideas.

Whatever I wind up doing, maybe I'll get brave enough to post a picture for ya'll.
Heather
I had someone in another office make me knickers, bonnet, and an apron. I put the complete Bo Peep costume on, pre-bloodbath, in the restroom to show my girlfriends at work.


Now they insist it's too cute to throw blood on. dry.gif rolleyes.gif

Maybe you can get some washable fake blood from a gag shop and wear the scary version for the party, wash it, then wear the cute version for something else!

So how's that go?

Little bo peep butchered her sheep?
Heather
Rom, when I describe the homicidal part of my costume, I like to say that I will look as if I've just mauled the sheep with my bare hands and teeth. Going to put a bunch of fake blood in a bowl and then have someone toss it at me. Also going to use a paint brush and flick it so that I get those authentic splatters.

I might change my mind and decide to coddle the sheep, but be homicidal toward people instead. But that just doesn't seem as twisted and wicked as the original idea.

There will be pictures to post! My cronies will be a dark, michievious fairy and my other girlfriend, who has huge boobs, is going to dress as a man. biggrin.gif

Hey Heather, will you have a stuffed sheep w/you? Maybe with it's head torn halfway off?
Heather
Yes, Naomi. It's the only piece of the costume I haven't acquired yet. I'm thinking of skewering it on my shepherd's crook right under a big, poofy, cutesy, pastel bow.

If you like Bo Peep, check out the Locked Door near Howards, they have a little peasant dress that might fit the bill, blue gingham..

Not that I have shopped there, mind you....someone told me about it laugh.gif

So Heather, how'd the costume turn out? Are there pics?
biggrin.gif
Heather
It turned out ok. I got a lot of compliments on it. I didn't have nearly as much blood on me as I would have liked, but as usual we all got ready at the last minute and we all needed help with details so I didn't have time to run out and get more blood.

I have pictures, but haven't had them developed yet. Look for 'em in the next couple of days.
Yossarian
Heather, it didn't HAVE to be lamb blood.

You COULD have used human... blink.gif
