Halloween costume - please help

<p>The party is this Friday and I am clueless as to what to wear.
The theme this year is music. I know, easy, but not if you are artistically challenged ;)</p>

<p>tuxedo, curly wig and baton: Gustavo Dudamel</p>

<p>or black and white stripe tights with a little black dress: you’re a piano.</p>

<p>Lady Gaga is supposed to be big this year.</p>

<p>You can be a punk rocker–jean, black t-shirt with a band logo, eye liner, spiked out hair and a paste on jewel for your nose.</p>

<p>go as your favorite song</p>

<p>A guy at work came in dressed as Jimi Hendrix once and did a good job of it - I recognized who he was trying to be instantly.</p>

<p>Kiss? Black outfit, face paint.
Michael Jackson stuff is all over this year.
Like the favorite song idea…that could be very clever.</p>

<p>Justin Bieber</p>

<p>I should clarify that I am looking for something I can make at home in a couple of hours or less.
Favorite song is nice…</p>

<p>You could make a cardboard box into an iPod.</p>

<p>Get a generic witch costume and apply green makeup to your face. You could be Elphaba from the musical “Wicked.” Look on YouTube for “best witch makeup.”</p>

<p>– Put a bandana on your head, a bunch of chains/beads around your neck and tape IRS forms (downloadable from the internet) all over you (wear jeans and a tshirt) Bingo-- Willie Nelson!!</p>

<p>You can also make a fake beard with either cotton balls glued to paper, or just use eye liner and draw on a black beard. If you have a cowboy hat, wear that around your neck. A guitar is an added prop</p>

<p>Are you male or female? If female, you can wear a floor length single color gown, a string of pearls, ghoulish make up and go as a member of the Zombie Mormon Tabernacle choir.</p>

<p>Go disco. Platform shoes, spandex or other shiny material, a gold chain belt.</p>

<p>Well there’s always the plastic viking horned helmet, breast plate, spear and golden braids for that Wagnerian Soprano look.</p>

<p>If you are going with a significant other—go as Sid and Nancy. Or John and Yoko. Or the White Stripes. Or Sonny and Cher. Or Gilbert and Sullivan.</p>

<p>^^ We actually had one of those viking horned hats with blond braids, sent it to DS his freshman year, and never saw it again :(</p>

<p>I once went as a cast member of The Chorus Line, with white shorts, a gold sparkly top, gold shoes, and a white top hat. Back when I actually looked good in such an outfit…</p>

<p>If you can find something to wear vaguely representative of a song, you could complete the look by printing up and pinning the lyrics all over your body. Or make them into one long string and wrap it around you.</p>

<p>Or cut out a giant cardboard circle, paint it black with grooves, and see how many people can still recognize a record!</p>

<p>I love [Spin the Black Circle](<a href=“Spin the Black Circle - Wikipedia”>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_the_Black_Circle&lt;/a&gt;)</p>

<p>I don’t suppose they still put cds in breakfast cereal- but what about making a costume incorporating old Cds?</p>
