Harley Quinn for Halloween?
Halloween isn't exactly a big deal for anyone within the Swedish borders....
I mean, it isn't even a legitimate holiday here.
But it's always fun to dress up and pretend you're someone else for a day.... Someone way cooler than you.
So far, though, I've never really bought or made a real costume.
I've cheated with.. simple witch make-up (whatever that means) and scary skin tones.
But this year... I really wanna do something more elaborate and stupid.
I went over my choices and came up with this list:
1) The Mad Hatter
2) Harley Quinn
And since I don't feel like buying lenses JUST for a costume, I'mma go with the blue eyed choice.
Harley.
She's a fabulous, though cowardice, character with great clothes.
But the beforementioned clothes are very hard to sew, and surprisingly expensive to buy.
So why not make a new kind of Harley Quinn?
This is my inspiration:
And nevermind that ugly head-piece. (They're not supposed to be that close together.. duh)
So, whattayathink?
I'm not great at the whole sewing thing... I haven't got a huge budget... But I want to at least TRY this year.
.... Why?
Well. I really don't know.
I'll probably be the only one who gives a crap.
Whenever I have some free time... I'll go looking for cheap fabric.
This'll be interesting.

I'm thinking: THAT, but with a little less slut-iness.

Oh, it looks great! A bit of naughty looks certainly doesn't hurt ;) pokes and runs away
Last year, Jessica and I were Misty and Ash from Pokemon series. People loved it, and finding the costumes was relative easy too :D
But I don't know about this year, someone's gotta stay home and hand out candies to the kids, you know :P

Billy's getting older =P No, I get what you mean. Plus, holidays kind of lose their charm after a while, eh? =P Halloween for you would be like... easter for me maybe? I used to love easter... but then I got too old for dressing up and begging for candy, so I skipped the holiday altogether =P
It's sad.
Even christmas is losing its charm.
