Others do not have the gift of craftiness. (Hi!)
So let’s use this space to help each other figure out what to dress up as this Halloween. Feel free to:
- Share your best Halloween photos for inspiration (or just to brag)
- Tell us what you have in your closet (lots of black velvet!) so we can tell you what to do with it (high school goth?)
- Tell me how I can be “Fiona Apple in jail” at a party tonight without oversized prison garb, which I was too lazy to purchase, even though I came up with this brilliant costume idea weeks ago.
Also, I asked my co-workers for their favorite Halloween costumes: Dodai likes her Wizard of Oz Dorothy costume, Erin was once a “sexy Abe Lincoln complete with chin strap beard” and Tracie was once a table “with place settings around me and my head was a centerpiece of flowers.” My favorite Halloween costume to date was Rayanne from My So-Called Life; I put a ton of braids and crimped ponytails in my hair and carried a flask, and my best friends were Angela, Ricky, and Jordan Catalano. (The latter leaned a lot). It wasn’t very original, but we had a blast.
