OOOOH!! :O *starting brain activity and fantasy..* Since I already wore my absolute favorite outfit once, that I planned for nearly two years (Edward Scissorhands - pic here: http://maryihmemaassa.files.wordpress.com/2012/10/edwardscissorhands.jpg?w=584 And I actually won best outfit that year! *proudest moment ever*) my next outfit would probably also be something Tim Burton has created. Beetlejuice maybe? That would be madness! :D Yess! Beetlejuice it is!
ReplyDeleteWe do not really celebrate it here :( So no costume story from me. But I think Elphaba from Wicked would make a great costume :)
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a child we didn't celebrate Halloween in Spain. Now the children do.
ReplyDeleteWe usually made a special dress for Carnival. One year (I was about 7) some children decided to dress up and go for a walk in the night. One of us hadn't any costume, so he dressed up like an aged woman, with his great-grandma clothes.
We visited some neighbours in order to get sweets or money (so like in Halloween). One of those old women still thinks that our friend was a real old woman!!
Ooooh this looks great! :) You actually reminded me that it would be neat to send some halloween cards out....
ReplyDeleteHalloween only became a "thing" when I was already a teen and still isn't that big here in Germany. But, the greatest costume I've seen was at a Halloween-Party in Colombia. It was a couples costume and the girl wore flip-flops, a towel wrapped around her and also a towel-turban and the guy was dressed as a shower - he had some kind of harness around his upper body that held up a shower head and a shower curtain :) He also had various other things like a shampoo holder etc. I loved it! Now of course, this was in Colombia and I think it would be way to cold to use this costume in Germany or Canada....
We also dressed up around Carnival, but I never was that creative - like every kiddo, I went as a witch, an alien, a native american (I'm not sure whether this is common in North America, but over here it's one of the standard costumes actually), a princess, a ghost... those things.
Take care!
I don't have any super great costume stories but I always loved spicing up my sport outfits to create a costume. I've done a ton of different sports so I've been a vampire cheerleader, zombie tennis player etc.
