I was Marie Antoinette (i bought a costume, and when it came, it was horrible, like a 3rd graders art project for way to much money) so i went to work…and i made the whole costume myself, it took me a week worth of sewing and my hair took 1.5 to do, 1 hr in my arms were falling off! but it was soo worth it!

Living in a smaller town in the midwest I have to say the increase in “sexy” costumes is out of control!

Mostly because I see so many mom’s trying to relive their youth, perhaps re-interest a straying husband, or fulfilling a MILF fantasy, by throwing on some lingerie, hooker boots and cat ears. It’s really pathetic, and I think the real costume name should not be sexy cat or sexy nurse, but “desperate housewife”!

happy halloween to you too! :) as for my costume, i refused to spend more than $20. and that was the cost of my blonde afro wig. i also don’t want to be stuck with a big costume that has no room on my tiny apartment.

i loved jennine’s beetlejuice costume! :)

Last night was the best. Halloween in New York, Fan-fucking-tastic! Hubs and I went as Don & Betty Draper.

Had to write a comment, because when we where waiting on the train platform, I saw the trifecta; slutty bunny, slutty kitty, and slutty bee. They all had on fishnets and hip huggers. Oddly the two guys with them where gangsters? Wish I had a camera with me!

Oh, how fun to see other bloggers doing this! It’s always been one of my favorite series on the Coveted (because I’m kind of obsessed with costumes, in case you had NO idea ;) and I look forward to it each year… I’ll have to Jessica’s costumes!

I love Jessica’s costume. Creativity was long lost on the average American woman when it comes to Halloween…here’s hoping it gets better this year.

And here is where I got my, umm…shiny undergarment…http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=vt_related_1&listing_id=30933913

Great post, I get so annoyed by all the skanky costumes. My boyfriend recently commented on the subject saying “aren’t girls supposed to slut it up for Halloween” speaking of the costumes. This coming from a guy who is not a bad guy at all. I guess he was just being observant.

I started making my costume a couple months ago based off of a leather dress I found while at a thrift store. It was in a native american style but a weird mauve color. I dyed it, handmade a feathered headdress, a leather belt with paint, some jewelry, and a feathered bustle for the back. You can see the trial run here, minus the bustle on back….

I’m going to do some cutting to add fringe on the sleeves and bottom before Halloween.
