We are going to a Geeky Halloween party this year, and![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
roho is already picking out his costume which leaves me going, 'uh.. shit.'
I have not dressed up for Halloween, um.. EVER, and a quick surf through costume shops that carry my size (yay fat butt) showed... stuff that looks great on skinny chicks but not so much on larger women, and stuff that would be okay, but looks cheaply made and has triple digit prices.
I do not currently have a working sewing machine, I do have a black underbust bodice and peasant shirt, so worst case I can buy a nice scarf and wrap it around my waist, wear the bodice and shirt with a skirt, but I'd like to avoid the renfaire look if at all possible, or at least put a little more effort into it.
SO! Friends! Loved ones! Suggestions? Most of you know what I look like irl.
