Halloween Costume 2009

This year, I'm feeling a little gothy, a little scary, a little pop culture. Basically, this year I'm feeling a little Pride and Prejudice and Zombies! I think this would be the ideal costume for me right now, and it's pretty much a now or never costume. This year I would still be riding the Pride and Prejudice and Zombies wave of popularity. Next year, who knows what the relevance of this costume would be. Ah, but this year, yes, this costume would be ripe for the picking.


I figure it's a good mix of funny, pop culture/literary reference, historical, but still has the ability to be a little scary. If you're willing to take it there. And oh, I would be. I would go all out with the green, decaying skin makeup, welts and sores, oozing blood, cockroaches crawling up my body.


(Thanks for that idea Martha Stewart). Yes, this costume would be a glorious melange of everything I love. Thus, it would be my costume.

However.... As things stand, I am currently attending my cousin's wedding on Halloween, thus eliminating basically any chance I have of wearing this costume. Their theme is still pretty fun though. After the cut see what I have to say about it.



So they are going for a "Victorian Gothic" themed wedding. I put together a little Polyvore set of what my DREAM outfit to their wedding would be. Of course my actual outfit will be a little more accessible price wise, but along the same route.

Sigh, this is fun and all. But I can't help but think that Pride and Prejudice and Zombies will be running through my head the whole night.
