I was invited to a friend's friend's Hallowe'en party and I didn't want to go as something scary, but the point of wearing a costume for Hallowe'en is to be creepy so I went for something in the middle and went as a zombie ballerina. It's a good balance between spooky and pretty. It was easy enough to do since I could pull the costume together using things I already own and just needed to buy some face paints.
Originally I was going to wear my pink tulle skirt, but I'd had a big meal that day and it didn't fit. Plus the black works better anyway. I had so much fun with the make up though! I gave myself black eyes and lips and drew stitches all over my body. Then I dribbled some fake blood out of my mouth. The only problem was the white face paint wasn't that white. And it was a cold night. Still, I kept warm whilst laughing with a wicked ringmaster, two black cats, a pumpkin swordsman, a paedo tiger, Bill Compton, a double headed vampire and various other ghoulies.
I had too much fun doing these ballerina poses.

wonderful costume! I wish I'd had a reason to dress up.
Great costume!!! I agree with you, I always try to look for usual and scary characters, it's too boring to dress like a vampire every year! you look great!

thanks for the video comment :3 you're so sweet. how much did you end up paying for the wig? my long wigs tend to get tangled too :( I try to comb it before and after i use them. but they're starting to look crimped and dry. but still do-able seeing that i've had them for almost a year.
I just wanted to say that I really miss your posts, hope you come back to us soon:)
