We did have a good time, but I couldn't bend over. I have a couple of friends who go all out for Halloween. One group of girls actually went to a dentist last year and had him BOND ON real vampire fangs for them. After a week they went back and he ground them off. Another couple we know gets a mutual friend who is an optometrist to make a new pair of costume contacts for them every year. One year it was red for vampires, this year it was white-out for ghosts.
That's why I always take my costumes out of my closet....I won't spend that kind of money on stuff like that. Being the long term Heavy Metal/Goth/Punk music fan I have been all my life, I have a lot of clothes that people look at and call "costumes". Granted I don't wear them to the grocery, but my date clothes are different from a lot of women's date clothes. I have gotten away from corpsepaint over the past few years though...just too much trouble.
The miniskirt I wore in this I am actually sharing with my 11 year old. Its hers. Because she's 4 inches shorter than me its a wee tad more "modest" on her. But we wear the same size. I have a few leather minis but they were too "old" and I wanted to update this year!
