Themed party emergency!
My boyfriend just invited me to a themed party. The theme is "Time Warp" and you have to dress up from a certain time period.
Here's the problem... I have a grand total of 4 hours tomorrow to get together a costume, and I have no clothes other than jeans and t-shirts.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I could dress up that will be easy and relatively inexpensive to find at a mall?
My boyfriend is dressing up 50s style, by the way.

you could match your boyfriend in the 50s theme. i saw a dress at forever 21 that has sleeves and it's button down and has a tie thing around the waist that looks like it's from the 50s. (think the dress in the notebook) it's probably $30 or less too. put on an apron and some small heels and dress as a 50s housewife. if you don't have the money, go to a thrift store and find a dress from a random era and then go crazy. look through your mom's old clothes for accessories and stuff. good luck and have fun. <3

Some two good, inexpensive ideas are:
Be a hippie. Just grab some flared out jeans, a pair of sandals, and some sunglasses ( not those big kind, though, maybe some of those rounded ones ). Since halloween's so close, so many stores'll probably have wigs ( or you could just wave your hair yourself ) and peace medallions and all sorts of stuff and you could find a tie-dye t-shirt anywhere. And just do your makeup really cute and maybe draw a flower or a peace symbol on your cheek.
Or even be a 50's girl with your boyfriend, to be a matched couple thing. Just find a blouse laying around your house or a normal, plain colored t-shirt, and then find a skirt you can wear that's semi-longish to your knees that can flare out ( you know, you can spin in and everything ), and then just find a scarf that you can tie up in your hair, or around your neck. And if you have these kind of shoes laying around in your attic that your mom saved:

You can wear those, or even current day plain colored flats would do just fine.
I hope I helped!

Find yourself a sheet, fashion a toga, stick a whopping great broach on the shoulder, grab some leaves, stick them on an unobtrusive hairband, put on some sandals, layer on the make-up and hope that everyone looks at your face not your costume.

You should be a hippie (70's era), there are stores now that have a lot of flared jeans and I'm pretty sure you could find a colorful top to go with, and maybe just some beaded necklaces, and (well it depend on your hair length)a headband coming across your forhead (you can use a scarf or something else). Then you can wear some boots or some kind of closed toe shoe with a little bit of heel. It'll be pretty cool!
Hope I was of help!
P.S. if they do like it lemme know!
