ok, now i'm seriously excited about halloween

[vivalacara]

i changed my mind on what i'm going to be. i was planning to dress up as a pirate captain but since audrea just had a pirate themed birthday party and i dressed up for it, the idea of being a pirate again just bores the hell out of me.
i really feel bad that i'm not going to wear the halloween costume that i already have...
but i'll just wear it next year. i don't want to be the same thing twice!

anyway...
i'm going to dress up as michael jackson!

i'm going to re-create this outfit:




i figured all i need is some kind of a business jacket (hopefully i can find a red one at goodwill or something) and cut the collar shorter to make it stand up straight like a military jacket does. then all i need is a flat gold rope and sew it into the swirly patterns on the front of the jacket (i can find that at joannes fabric) then i need some sturdy gold farbic to make the shoulder patches.

then of course comes the glove, and i think i'll wear a short black skirt instead of the black pants he wore.

how hot does beyonce look?
i wish i could find a jacket that was cut diagonally like this one, but that's way too fancy for my budget.




there will probably be a lot of michaels walkin around this halloween, but hopefully mine will be the best ;)

wish me luck!
