Of course, this year I have to teach on Wednesday--my big lecture class. So, there's absolutely no way that I'm going to don anything embarrassing. Wings, wigs, masks, make-up, yeah, it's probably not going to happen. BUT, I was still thinking I could swing an understated costume. Like, you know, a book character that wears fairly normal clothes?
Only problem? I have NO idea what to do! I've been thinking maybe dressing as a member of the Erudite faction from Divergent (fitting, in a pathetic sort of way), or maybe Evie from the Paranormalcy series (hmm, a pink taser in class??). Anyone have any suggestions?? I'm all ears! :)
What are you dressing up for this year?
Yes! I'm making this hat:

And making a t-shirt that says Zombie Bait!
You could also go to the paint store and get 50 grey paint chips.....
So I just laughed way too loud at the 50 paint chips thing, hehe! Love the hat!!
DeleteMy friends and I did a superheroes incognito thing - like a Superman shirt peaking out of a button-down with glasses/Clark Kent thing. It was pretty cute and understated.
ReplyDeleteThat's a really fun idea! Hmm, going to have to think about how to pull it off :)
DeleteI like the Erudite idea. When I don't want to dress up too much I just put on some kitty ears or bunny ears, do some whiskers on my cheek, and add a tail to my normal cloths. It's cute but simple.
ReplyDeleteI love the ears in your pic--so cute! :)
DeleteGreat idea. I could throw a golf bag on my back, a nice older looking shirt, and suddenly I'm Nick Carroway from Great Gatsby. The majority of society doesn't read anyways, so who could judge me.
ReplyDeletelol, love it!
