Fancy dress ideas!

[gie!]

It's my boyfriends 21st in two weeks and it's fancy dress. But my thinking cap has gone missing
Past costumes:
Pink Lady
Goldilocks
Zebra
Batwoman
Alice In Wonderland
Army etc

The initial idea was 4 of us as Teenage Ninja Turtles but ones dropped out! So ideas would be much appreciated

I am a fancy dress freak! I love coming up with ideas for costumes.

I'm making this one for my brother and his girlfriend for Halloween (I told you I am a freak! I have everyones costumes already planned!) anyway :

A Chick Magnet (your Boyfriend) and a Chick (you).
The magnet is easy enough to make using cardboard, and for the chick costume you could get one of those yellow netty type tutu things and a yellow string vest, then glue/sew loads of yellow feathers to the top. Back comb like crazzy and stick a few yellow feathers in your hair.

Barbie in a Box was another good one that I saw last halloween - Barbify yourself! and make a life size box with cardboard, glitter and pink paint.

Another one I like is Lego Pieces, Cardboard box, paint, glue and flower pots are all you need. and if you are going as a couple costume you could be "rude" lego and put the pots at strategic places if you know what I mean!

There is a website called : coolest homemade costumes.com that's where I got some of my ideas from.

Hope this helps. Enjoy

i love fancy dress, and so do my friends so birthdays are usually fancy dress!
we have done:
-masquerade ball
-baseball team
-moulin rouge
-disney characters
the baseball team worked quite well i found, the outfits were fairly cheap and it stood out quite well, plus we could all wear our converses with them (no sore feet from heels! yay!)
