Be Awesome for Halloween
Actually, I have lots of Halloween ideas. I’ve put together a few sample ideas for some of my favorite bloggers. If you find yourself in need of inspiration, send me a link to your blog, or just describe what you’re doing on Halloween night, and I’ll give you a hand.
Emily and Rob: Alice and Ralph Kramden!
Soletrain: ODB. Wouldn’t you pay money to see Uncle John wearing a grill? Anyway, I’m sure he already has the outfit. He just needs to accessorize with a 40.
Bunny Tomerlin: Goth princess. Because I bet she’s never even worn PVC.

Grosgrain Garage: preppy Jesus – Bonnanos, tunic with gingham trim and a ribbon belt, pearls worn as a thorny crown
Decorno: Sarah Palin, a.k.a. Governor Barbie – because D. could get totally loaded at the party and still make more sense. She should go Miss Wasilla-style, wearing an American flag wrapped around her torso as a strapless dress, fastened with a McCain-Palin 2008 pin, and of course The Glasses.
JJ: I bet JJ’s looking pretty fine these days. She needs to pour her sexy self into a Joan Holloway-style pencil skirt.
SGM: Rachel Zoe (obviously). She’ll need to go out on the mountainside for a few days without moisturizer (or solid food), but she’s got the lingo down. But she needs to be the Undead Rachel Zoe – instead of a fur, she needs to wear, like, a whole animal carcass, and maybe some vampire teeth to represent how she keeps her “youth.” (Note: sunglasses and handbag to scale)
Pigtown-Design: Meg should be Mario Batali, because 1) she could use pork as an accessory, and 2) it would be an excuse to eat everything in sight. [Dude, I should have saved that one for myself.]
And her cross-continental companion: Sucker for Marketing – Gwyneth, because she’s perfect in every way. And she should dress in full-on Ice Princess mufti.
Sarah’s Fab Day: Serena from Gossip Girl. Pretty, but capable of kicking ass when necessary. Also, Sarah would get to keep the wardrobe, which would make her happy.

Sara: Steampunk heroine Amelia Earhart
Biddy: Biddy should wear a white shirt and pants, covered in white balloons, and go as a bubble bath. She could use a bubble bath these days. Plus, when they check her into the asylum, she'll already have an outfit.
Susannah: She would make one sexalicious Bond Girl.
OMG, this is SO good!
ReplyDeleteWill you come north to Kansas and help me every year for Halloween?
Awesome!!! I'd pay to see Bunny in that get up. As for me? Well, I'm scared I'd be struck by lightening :)
ReplyDeleteI am ALL OVER this. Loved the undead twist.
ReplyDeleteNow I just need a party to go to.
As I was reading this post I was thinking "Oooooh! Me! Do me! Do me" and mentally raising my hand.
ReplyDeleteI love that you see the bound up Bond Girl hiding just beneath my jeans and sweatshirt! Mwah to you! Beats the year I went as Mommie Dearest and carried a wire coat hanger. (I was 8 years old).
YES, I have a party! I'm gonna comb the consignment stores for a fake fur. Do you think I can convince Frank to go as Brad?
ReplyDeleteWhat, pray tell, are you going to be, Mamacita?
I am SOOOO totally Mario! Except I don't cook! What's really funny is that last year I went as Kitchen Nightmares! I got a chef jacket and put roaches and rats all over it and then had a bloody chef's toque! Did you know that???
