The BF and I are going as holocaust prisoner (him) and SS death camp officer (me). He's wearing dirty striped pajamas, and I'm working on putting together a uniform. We're doing a fetish-y twist to it though -- our outfits will be made of rubber or vinyl. Offensive? Probably. Fun? Hell yes!

Give your BF the riding crop for a nice socio-political-reverse-dominance-sexual-exploration twist.

Its not really a twist, its more reminiscent of actual women involved in the Holocaust like Ilse Koch and Irma Grese, as well as a lot of horrible Nazi exploitation films.

I felt fairly sure this was what you were going for, and it adds a nice serious touch to what otherwise is usually a very hollow celebration. However, I was also thinking about the subsection of pornographic films being produced in Israel that posit holocaust victims as the dominant sexual party and Nazi guards as subservient. It's an interesting and (I'd imagine) very therapeutic fantasy.

Oh I'm sorry, I misunderstood that, I thought by "give your BF the riding crop" you meant hitting him with it! And by exploitation films I didn't mean porn in which the tables were turned but films about women in the SS that ***** men.

You should walk around with chocolate coins wrapped in gold-colored foil in a question block trick or treat bag.

That was my costume last year. It was great at night, but I wore it all day through work and it wasn't as fun.

I'll either be a WWII female bomber pilot, or the Baroness since i have the glasses now.

I dislike being in and having trick-or-treaters coming to my house, so I'll be out in town getting drunk on hallowe'en. I may dress up, but I get pretty dressed up for a Saturday night out anyway.

I'm thinking of getting a black military uniform and wearing a gasmask. I'll wear gloves and a hat, trying to leave little if no skin exposed. I'll also not say a word to people. It makes people uncomfortable if I don't talk =).

I hope I don't come off as Slipknot ish.

I will be two things.
One. Tee Hee Tummy Tums from The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack
He is a burlap sack man who makes combs. Under the mask he is the most beautiful man in the world, but UNDERNEATH
Two. I Will just paint my face like that joker fellow from that dark knight movie.
It was the first time I had ever had anything on my face and it felt right...
While I wear the teeheetummytums mask i am sure the paint will run as I sweat and then come later on I pull off my mask and have nice halloween relations....

If I hadn't moved back up to Missouri, and chunked up again, James Marster's character could be fun. Though I wouldn't want to cut my hair or dye it blond. So, maybe, a gothed out version.

Hahahahahahaha, reminds me of the year the guy dressed up as a penis was giving out free condoms at my university. That was Valentine's Day though.

Still debating what to be, and can't get started for two more weeks anyway (when I'll have disposable income), I'll go look at Value Village and the fabric store and see what I can find and make my decision that way. Still leaning towards Rebecca, but also thinking of doing Red Riding Hood, not the costumes you get that are meant to be sexy but make my costume in a kinderwhore riot grrl sort of way.

Good idea. Dunno how fast of a sewer you are but I'd start early. Halloween makes the fabric shops' merchandise disappear.
Damn crafty soccer moms.

It's a shame I can't get a single green contact in my prescription..

I'm doing my eyeshadow/liner with one eye blue and one eye green, but a contact would be wayyyy cooler. D:

Maybe I will ask the nice people at the Wal*Mart eye center for a "sample" of their colored contacts?

Getting 'gothed out' in general gloom and doom attire; all black, studs and chains with the strap covered boots and finding a way to tie in some of that lime green fabric with the black bat prints from Hancock Fabrics. Throw in some tacky-chic halloween party favors as extra bling and you're set! Well, can't forget one of those oh so nastolgic plastic trick-or-treat pumpkins to hold all the champagne.
I can't decide if I want to go the Misfits route with a painted face (but more day of the dead) or just cake on the eyeliner in a skull eye socket kinda way. I'll be getting plastered so I want a trashy glam kinda look to fit the moodof shits and giggles on the day of the dead. Halloween always makes me giddy when I recall the intoxicating smell of cheap rubber masks, the way halloween make up would smudge, and running my fingers along aisles after aisles of costumes.

I'm going to bring a couple candles so my comrads and I can walk around all night as the lost souls we like to think we are. I want to embody both the glam of dressing up to go out and the holiday fun had as a youth. I'm stoked I'll finally be able to wear black heart shaped glasses and not look like a complete ass hole.
