Hello.
Well, what can I say, it's almost Halloween, and I can't pick what I want to be!
I have tons of ideas and I get tons from my friends but I just can't pick! So
maybe you can pick easily but you don't have ideas, so here is what I got:
Punk- In Whyville, it's quite easy to be a punk because you can spike
your hair really long and not have any doors to get stuck in, but in real life
you might have to do it some other way if you have long hair. My friend who is
obsessed with punks say they wear either red or black t-shirts and blue jeans
with holes in the knees, but my friend last year who dressed up as a punk wore
white and black striped stockings, a black skirt and a jacket and she wore her
hair with green streaks... so it's really confusing to me.
Sailor- Just buy a sailor shirt and fold up one of those newspaper sailor
hats and VOILA! I don't know what pants they wear though... but if you're a girl
you don't have to worry about that, because you can wear dresses!
Pirate- You can get one of those big hats but a bandana would be easier,
and get a eye patch or make one. Then all you need is a belt, some leather boots
(if you can afford them) and a lot of jingly jewelry (treasurrre).
Hippie- Just get blue jeans (bellbottoms), a tie die shirt and if you're
a girl tie your hair in two braids and maybe wear a bandana headband.
Teddy bear- Well, it might be a bit harder but all you need is plushie
material, a tape measure and a sewing machine! Make some pants and then a jacket
with a hood that has 2 ears on it! Then everybody would just want to hug you!!
Princess, Angel or Fairy- Just get a big poofy dress, curl your hair and
for a fairy or an angel get some wings, for a princess get a crown, fairies can
wear those bobble headbands and angels wear halos. Ta da! That's all you need.
Baby- If you're a girl, put your hair in pigtails, dress in your pajamas
and wear slippers around. You can carry a bottle of you want, LoL. If you're a
boy, you probably don't want to be a baby for Halloween. XD
Ok, so maybe I gave you a little inspiration. But if you don't like any of my
ideas, then make up something! I made up my own weird look. All you need to make
up your own look is inspiration and some time. You can get inspiration from
looks already made, or animals, or TV shows... whatever you want! Your options
are unlimited!For my look, you always have to wear a shirt that is too big for
you, and a hat that's the opposite color of your whole outfit. Or if you can't wear hats,
just do your hair in a way that nobody has done before, except maybe
Queen Amidala from Star Wars. You might get inspiration from a different look,
and add some things you think are cool or your favorite colors and styles to it, and voila.
The last thing you need is a name for it. I called mine Phynk because I got
inspiration from Punk and my nickname is Phyzz. For example, if your look was
inspired by... Kangaroos, and you're nickname was... Monkey, you could call it 'Kangkey'
or 'Mongaroo' because that's what you get when you put it together.
Are you still stuck? Maybe you have the same problem as me and can't afford to
buy a whole new costume, or sew a new costume. But you always have stuff at
home! If you need black pants but have none that are baggy enough, try black
snow pants! If you need a bandana but don't have one, cut up an old sweater! If
you need cat or bear ears, get a headband and fold pieces of felt fabric around
it in two places like ears. Use your imagination, that's what makes it fun, and
when people comment on your costume, you can tell them you made it
yourself!
Ok, I think I've gone on long enough, just about costumes... how exciting. Okay,
bye! ~Twigsy
