Happy Halloween

Did anyone see that hideous costume Ms. Brit Brit (Britney Spears) wore yesterday? She is a complete train wreck! I wish I would have read this thread BEFORE halloween! The sunny, partly cloudy costume is PERFECT!

Want to know the best part about Halloween? The day after when all the candy goes on sale! The local drugstore near my house had ALL their bags of halloween candy marked down to 59 cents a bag! That's even better than the 50% markdown at other stores lol. Needless to say, my mother and I stocked up. We bought around $11 worth of it

i love Halloween. I've had my front yard decorated for couple of weeks--tastefully, nothing too crazy and weird--bought the candy and pumpkins, and cant wait for my favorite shows to do a Halloween theme.

I normally love to decorate for Halloween. Right now i'm just trying to get boxes unpacked and the house set up. Oh well, there's always next year.

We are actually moving 2 days before Halloween. no reason to decorate either place this year, IMO.
I'm supposed to go to a party Saturday, but the only thing I won on my business trip to Las Vegas was a very nasty cold.
oh, the plane ride home was so much FUN! and I'm sure my seatmates just loved me (and I'm so glad I don't know them as they will probably have colds next week)

Ok, tonight is one of many costume parties I am going to this year *yay*
And I'm going simple for this one (simple as in concept, not execution)

I'm going to be the Green Fairy.
However, this time around I'm going to be taking it a tad Darker than the usual beautiful airy muse that people think of when they think of Fairies. I'm going for a more, Gothy Absinthe-y feel.

So I have all of the supplies I need, I just can't decide on the hair.
I had it all figured out a couple of months ago when I was still dark brown/black. I was going to have peekaboo electric green streaks.
But now that I am a redhead I need to come up with something else.

What do YOU think of when you think Fairy hair.
Up
Down
Half-up-half-down
Curly and wild
Straight and flowing
Mermaidy hair
Avante-Garde

Don't hold back with ideas based on what you think I can pull off!
Post pictures, Throw some key words out to me.. go Crazy please.

My real hair is shoulder length, but I have long clip in extensions as well to play with!

[schmoo2]

I think your new color will be wonderful with the green fairie.

I would go curly and wild! and a few green streaks would look even better IMO

and we want pictures!

[ClosetNerd]

Oh, I'm sure there will be pics

Are those Candy pumpkins in your av?! I was just visiting husband at work and eating up all of his candy corns saying "Candy corn is the only Halloween candy I look foreward to every year" He asked why and I said "Because all the rest is just candy, at Halloween time. But candy corn is actual HALLOWEEN CANDY. The only thing I like better than candy corn, is those candy corn pumpkins!" He laughed and we agreed pumpkins > corns
