I have come up with an awesome Halloween costume, but it will have to wait for another year... because it is friggin' expensive! But it's fun to think about. Thar she blows, the pirate wench...
Bell-sleeve pirate shirt in red (too bad the
corset and
cinch doesn't come with it, but that comes next). Add a
pirate skirt of hilarious proportions (although I was seriously tempted to change my entire idea when I saw the
Victorian England Steampunk skirt - maybe Steampunk for another year?).
Now accessorize like a pirate! She needs some shoes - either some
high-heeled boots that can kill faster than a cutlass, some
Aviatrix boots, or some astronomically-expensive
Steampunk stompers, although they don't really match the skirt. She needs a
hat fo' sho. I'm not feelin the hat, but that was the best they could do that looked like it would fit my head. Shoes, hat, now she needs some finishers.
A
belt, a
gun, some
jewelry, an
eyepatch in case she drinks too much and stabs her eye out with her credit card, a
sash, and I think that's that.
She needs a gift card to help a pirate out. Next year! It'll go over better in Minneapolis, anyway.
