Heey I'm going to a dressing up party soon and I'm going as a cowgirl :smile:

So far I have a checked shirt & denim shorts but I'm wondering what accessories I should get and where from? :smile:

Any suggestions welcome!
Thanks xx

I did this a few years ago. I wore a green and white gingham shirt (it wouldn't do up over my boobs, so I had it unbuttoned) over a white vest with a denim skirt that I had customised by sewing dip dyed strips of fabric on to the bottom which all my friends said looked amazing and brown knee high boots. I bought a cheap white plastic cowboy hat and wore my hair in pigtails. I also bought a fancy dress gun belt complete with water gun which everyone enjoyed.

So everyone I just wanted to know what everyone is doing for Halloween. Are you having a party or going to an event?

But more to the point, what are you going as! I need inspiration. I have found some really fun ones, check out the one below

There are a few that I have found, tell me what you think of them

Barnacle Bill

Body Bag

Straight Jacket - I do like this one but I want a free hand for beer!

Tell us all what you are doing!

You could go as a gangster? All you need is a white shirt, black tie and a trilby/fedora...

I don't watch 'Made In Chelsea' but googling it, they look like party outfits, but is there anything a bit different (without looking too weird/offensive) I could do for a 'Made In Chelsea' themed freshers pub crawl? :smile:

Any ideas/pics are more than welcome.

Can anyone give me some good inspiration for this?!

Looking for something easy to do but with maximum impact haha. This is probably a pretty common theme so if you've done it then what did you go as?

Thank youuuuu :smile:

Meh - it depends. Do you think it's slutty for a girl to wear a tight mini skirt and tight top baring lots of flesh?

It depends on how its worn.

I would post a picture but I'd be banned for life.

It's a dildo on the forehead.

For girls: floaty cream coloured dresses, heels and hair down in big curls, centre parting if possible.
For guys: grey trousers, white shirt, and an air of dickishness about you.

I did a devil costume once I had horns, a tail and a mini trident, I wore a red vest and red tutu skirt all with red lingerie, smoky eyes, red lipstick and red nails.

I wanted to go as silk spectre II for halloween (gn version, not the latexy movie version) but it would probably be a bit too revealing for a school dance :frown:

Any ideas how I could make it less slutty but stay true to the costume? Or alternative ideas? I want to go as something more original than a cowgirl etc :smile:
