Halloween Magic....

With such fabulous costume ideas already on the board, this year's halloween costume decision has been a tough one. How can I be glam? How can I be unique? How can I be just a little bit skanky... So in my decision-making process, I had to consider my past (but really, the Black Plague can't be topped so I shouldn't be too hard on myslef) and a potential complement costume with a Lego man. Polly Pocket? I think not. Not good enough.
So, after a little bit of searching online, here is what I came up with, and I love it!

Caberet-esque magician!




The real inspiration here is the sexy magician costume I found on a Party City-like website. I love any excuse to wear fishnets, though I am wary of the hot shorts. I thank Casey for suggesting bringing in inspiration from Caberet and the ever theatrical Columbia from Rocky Horror. All in all, it should be a good season.
Be jealous. Go on.

Very nice! I love that gold bodice. I don't know where I'd wear it other than Halloween, but I'd come up with some kind of excuse. Fab.

Glorious. I love it. That is basically exactly what a halloween costume should be. Fabulous, and sparkly, and with a bustier.

I like the hat. Hats are basically the best part of Halloween. That and wigs but wigs are a LOT more uncomfortable.
