I don't actually celebrate Halloween, but I've wanted to go Christmas caroling during trick or treating for years. I've always had rehearsal though, so I've never gotten the chance...

She has the name too! 
|
sweetsoprano

YES! I didn't think of that!
This is the only one I can find and it's not really Meg, but close enough, right?
Apparently they don't make Meg costumes?
|

It looks enough like what she wears that people would recognize you as being dressed as her, especially with your new hair.

You can still be creative as a witch if you go all out!

Where do you guys get cheap costumes? (preferrably something that ships to Canada)
This will be my first Halloween EVER! *exited*

I'm a little disappointed that I'll have to wear the same costume I wore last year. But since I like to make my own and didn't bring my sewing machine with me when I moved back to NYC, It's the best choice. Besides, it think it's perty.
P.S. What are the New Yorkers' plans? My friends and I don't really have any and my costume is a lil big for the huuuuuge crowds of the parade. Any idea's are welcome.
And for those of you who are curious as to what the costume is:
I'm the one who happens to be a boy under all the frill.

If i can get it together, I am going as Sabretoothe with the Rogue girl. I'm not going as 80's though. Sort of a mix. Claws and fangs, but a duster with fur around the collar and short hair with ridiculous sideburns

I'm going as a Sim. Which is lame, but since I don't really have plans this year for Halloween (at least, yet), I'm going to be making a big green diamond and attach it to a headband.

You better get started. Making a diamond takes longer than you would think.

The Sim idea is great. My friend went to comic con a few years ago as a Sim, people loved it.

I have a state singing competition on Halloween, so I won't be able to dress up. 
But if I did, I would find a guy to go with me and dress as Jim and Pam from The Office.

I really want to be Enjolras, but I have a choir audition on Halloween.

Seems to be there are a lot of choral activities going on Halloween....weird.
I also have a choral festival on Halloween, but I should get back on campus in time for Halloween festivities.

I saw! Your costume is cuter than mine though Ah well! Shall be good! I plan on staying in character all night. Of course, it will be Into The Wood's Little Red, not normal, so I can act like a snot.. Just kidding..

I think most Halloween costumes girls wear these days are whorish.
I want to look sexy too, but not like a character in a freaking porno.

I don't think we're all going out looking like porn stars..we're just out to have some fun and get trashed. (Well I am. )

As long as people don't dress like that everyday, I have no problem with the slutty costumes. And if they are "fit" enough to wear them if you know what I'm saying.

I met my first real life person who celebrates Halloween, yesterday.

Halloween is virtually non-existant here, I'm totally celebrating it next year when it's not in the middle of my exams etc.
Also our senior year all gets to dress up tommorow for our last day of school, me and my friend are being Sweeny Todd and Mrs Lovett, fun

I'm not going anywhere, so I'm not dressing up.
My friend wants me to go to Santa Barbara with him, and he wants me to go as Rachel Zoe.
But I really don't want to go to Santa Barbara when I'll be reliant on someone else for transportation. I don't want to be stuck if something goes wrong or if I'm uncomfortable.

That's a very sage gut feeling. Go with it.

One of my friends told me I should go as Astro Boy....
But, being a broke college student, idk if I can even afford a costume this year. Lord knows I couldn't last year, but I made it work and was Coach Carr from Mean Girls/ U Mich football coach hahaha.

Meh. Adults can dress as they please on Halloween. But I do sort of roll my eyes at the 'slutty version of' costumes because not only are they predictable, they are kind of gross when they depict whorish versions of characters that are supposed to be little girls. Ick.
Just dress as a regular Little Red. That'd be really cute.
|
Jman383
|
^^ But funny enough, the subtext of Little Red's ENTIRE character is that she IS a whore. That's the entire metaphorical purpose of the story. Just sayin'...

Okay, so I keep forgetting that I know who this is in real life, so your posts keep really creeping me out. =P haha

I've been invited to a few Halloween parties ... only one of which I really want to go to ... but I'm struggling to think of ideas for a costume. I don't really want to buy one, but hiring is certainly an option. Hmmm.

I ordered my costume online, and the skirt ended up being way too short, but there's no going back now, so I'm probably going to put leggings or thick black tights on instead:

Since you are in New York, where all stores abound, how about a pair of Manga/anime rufflepants for underneath? Would go with the idea of the outfit and preserve modesty.
|

I'm just going to go with leggings, since they'll cover more skin, and it's supposed to be a little chilly and rainy on Saturday. It'll be nice to have at least my thighs covered.

thank you! i'm pretty pleased with it; it won't be pitch-perfect, but it'll suffice.
the sad part is that, since i'm in the UK where the show's not as popular, no one will get it, save for my housemates (who are as obsessed with the show as i am, thanks to me, hahaha) and like...one other guy. tragic!

Halloween isn't a huge thing here, but my friend and I are going to student-rush La Bohème dressed like... well... bohemian hooligans from the 1830s. Which is quite possible to pull off using naught but the contents of my wardrobe.
