I dream about Halloween (no joke) and a good portion of these dreams have been centered around one costume idea: Britney Spears as the "Toxic" flight attendant. And now, my dream has come true!
This was definitely the only costume I had this year that cost money or took any effort. But if you love Brit Brit as much as me, I totally recommend trying this for next year.
1. You will need about 2 1/2 yards of teal fabric (I went shiny to make it even more absurd), silver ribbon, stuffing, FMQ shoes, and of course: glittery false eyelashes.
Unfortunately, I actually left my eyelash glue at home so I had to skip that last step. It truly broke my heart.
Luckily, I was able to drink my sorrows away quite successfully.
2. This is the most important step. You need to get yourself a fashion student friend who's willing to help. Janelle here is sort of like a costume goddess and I was insanely lucky to have her make my costume for me.
So that's it! It's pretty simple — unless you're Janelle, that is.
When "Toxic" came on at the party, I was too pumped. I mean, that song is my
jam! It's been my ringtone since sophomore year of high school, but when I heard it in my costume I finally felt as though I could move on.
Just kidding! You guys get to keep listening to that until I have to become a real person!
But seriously, the best part of the costume: Janelle made it
even sluttier than the original costume Britney wore. It was ass out, booty out and I loved every second!
Certain people were freaking out all night that my skirt was too short and I was going to show off the goodies, but they forgot two very important things.
1. I never leave the house without my booty shorts on.
2. It's Halloween!
I mean, just look at my friend Mik! She truly got into the Halloween spirit as a bootleg Black Canary.
There were a lot of great ghetto costumes at the party The Girls/Willie threw on Sunday that weren't slutty. So if you're not me or Mik, there are awesome, cheap and more modest Halloween costumes for people on a budget.
Nina here rocked a blanket and shower curtain and went as Bartok from
Anastasia. How fucking hilarious is that?!?
Janelle and Willie went as Paper and Plastic. Janelle wore a fucking awesome giant smiley face bag and Willie went as a bag lunch. It was totally adorbs. But Janelle's other costume totally took the cake — or should I say
ice cream cake....
Bitch went as frickin soft serve! How cute is that?!? I'm seriously obsessed with her costumes every year.
And now, this costume is by no means easy. But it gets an honorable mention for awesomeness:
Those dino sleeves on her arms? Skaidra made that shit out of bubble wrap!
Her and Janelle kind of own Halloween.
Just looking at these pictures again is getting me so pumped for next year!
Maybe I'll just dress up as Roofie for his birthday party/Neuterfest 09 on Thursday...
