okay, our school puts on a halloween haunt concert every year. I already have a gorgeous dress that I need to make use of, I just don't know how to incorporate it into a costume. Can you give me ideas on what I could dress up as using ths dress? Please, nothing like throwing fake blood or getting the dress dirty. Also I want to look pretty, not some sort of monster.
Shortcake22 answered Tuesday October 17 2006, 5:53 pm: It looks kind of vintage. You could throw a cute apron over it, keep those pearls, put on some pumps, maybe get some cat eye glasses (costume stores have them) and you'd be like one of those 50's moms from the sitcoms like leave it to beaver.
Or you could be a greek goddess. Get some gold ribbon and wrap it around your waist (with it criss crossing in the front) and then a head dress from some kind of costume store (they're really cheap) that goes with it. Then maybe take gold ribbon and criss cross it up your legs (wear flip flops) to make it seem like lace up sandals that they wore. [ Shortcake22's advice column | Ask Shortcake22 A Question ]

Wings, pretty hair, etc.), you could be Miss Teen [Your school/town here]. To makie a sash you could take some extra white or pink fabric and use a magic marker to write the title on it in pretty cursive, tiara, heels, nice makeup, etc. You could be Marilyn Monroe (heels, red lips, black eyeliner and mascara, done up hair if you're blonde or possibly a nice wig, the pearls in the picture, a fake fur stole/boa, old hollywood stuff). I like Marilyn Monroe/hollywood startlet best, myself. It'll give you an excuse to get all glamed up. Hope I helped, have a great halloween!

You could curl your hair a bit and just buy some of those angel wings you can put on your back and do your makeup all pretty and everything. You could also be some type of fairy too, and maybe alter the dress a little shorter, kind of like tinkerbell's.
