Originally Posted By Rivkah86 This year, I am going to be a peacock. Actually, basically it will be a ball gown inspired by a peacock. I have a huge hoops skirt that I'm going to use- it will have a full skin-toned skirt, and a emerald green velvet bodice. The bodice will be trimmed in black velvet ribbon and underneath will attatch my tail. I got 100 feathers in the mail just yesterday, and I constructed a tail out of them. I also have a vintage hat that I attatched a dozen or so feathers to, and a green vale. Around the shoulders, I will have a wrap of black netting- loosly draped; almost as if floating. This drape will be fastened to the bodice with a silver broach. I also have several accessories- elbow-length gloves, a black clutch purse, black heals, and a peacock feather fan. Then, I'll do up my makeup really elaborately in shades of green, blue, and gold. With maybe some red lipstick. I am so excited to wear it. I have been working hard on it, and am almost done. It will be beautiful!

Originally Posted By LadyKluck I have 2 different costumes this year - the one for DH's friend's party at his house was pretty easy - I'm going as Little Red Riding Hood and DH is going as the Big Bad Wolf.

See we had a vote to see what our "theme" would be and ended up with a tie between super heroes and a slumber party theme (everyone dressing in their jammies) so we decided to combine them, so we're having a Super Hero Slumber Party!! I know its totally silly but we thought it would be hysterical to let the other teams figure out what we're dressed as! I'm having a heck of a time deciding who to dress as!
