I work at Value Village, where Halloween is apparently a bigger deal than the Christmas/Hanukkah/Yule/etc. season. So of course, we're expected to dress up for like, a whole month. I usually don't get crazy about halloween, if I have to, I would throw on a pair of kitty ears or dress like a hobo (not really a costume since all my clothes are old and ratty but it seems to pass as a costume).
Anyway, I'm dressing up this year. And probably using a few different ideas, slowly progressing from simple, small costumes like a hat, tie, tail, weird outfit to, finally, a full-blown awesome costume.
I'm thinking 40's gangster, Al Capone style. Never done it before and I love suits. I'm also going to throw on a cheesy mustache or beard, that will intentionally look fake. Or I might nerd it up and invest in a cosplay outfit, which I've also never done.
Who else is going to be dressing up this year? For work, parties, school?
I'm gonna be DONKEY KONG! :D
NOOOO!!! I will NOT accept any sign of fall! :icon_cry:
I know, I know! I am already getting depressed about the sun setting earlier each day and it being mid August, but we must find something to look forward to.
hahaha I guess it is a little early but I'm hoping to get some cool costume ideas ... my store rolls halloween out right at the beginning of Sept. and I have 6 weeks of costume fun so I want inspiration :D And dressing up is fun. :)
I love costumes O-O
I'm still debating what to do this year. Depends on if I have a party to go to or what not, and who's party.
I'd love to be Anubis this year though.
ohh this is totally MY topic, halloween is my favorite holiday, this year I am going to be either..
Alex Delarge, or Sweeney Todd

i think im dressing up as a student from Ravenclaw. Or something else...not sure
I changed my mind... I'm dressing up as an aviator, with the dorky cap and goggles. :) That'll be my final "Actually-On-Halloween" costume... in the meantime I'll just use that month as an excuse to break the company's dress code :D
Oh. just remembered, as for my more funny costume, I'll probably go as a redneck/white trash. mullet, wifebeater, and all
