It's just a matter of finding a good wig that's not super expensive - I'm a broke college student, haha. Where did you find yours?

Thing is, I could easily pull off Stevie BN-era or like, early 1975 before she went blonde and cut the shag..

If I part my hair close to the middle, that's literally exactly what it looks like.. maybe a little longer. Only problem is, literally no one would know who I was, and even after I told them, it wouldn't register haha. So that's not gonna work.

I wanna kick it Stevie style this year but I really doubt I'll be able to put together a Stevie outfit that is half decent. I've seen some pretty good Stevie costumes. Plus my Sister is taking me to a Hallowe'en party that is gonna be pretty skimpy and I'd be so out of place. I will be anyway cause I don't have to body to dress like a ho, but I'll have to figure something out. *le sigh*

I found an inexpensive wig at a Halloween costume shop. They're everywhere this time of year. The wig I bought was listed as "blonde 70's disco wig" or something. I shaped it to look more Stevielike. I pieced my outfit together from a place in Austin called Lucy in Disguise. I already had a black, lace fringed shall, but as Stevie fans, don't we all?

Attending a party, dressed as Stevie, of course! It's been a while since I've been Stevie. I always like to improve upon my last costume so that means new shawl (almost finished) new wig and new skirt. As always, everything came together fairly quickly. Most of it was fairly inexpensive...except for a few things. Who knew fringe cost so much??

being Stevie is a lot of work if you wanna do it right. I only do it when I can devote some serious time, thought and money. I won't be Stevie unless I can do it 100%.

WildHearted · #24 10-13-2011, 12:25 PM

Well, I have boots, a black (and off whIte, too) shawl, leotards, scarves, moon necklace, and lots of Lacey stuff that I could layer... Just from my personal wardrobe an all, aside from the necklace. and I happen to have a tambo haha

So if I could find a skirt and wig I could probably pretty easily Put something pretty decent together.

Hmm.

I found a chiffon handkerchief skirt on a dancewear website (dancewear solutions maybe?) for $15. In the past I made my own skirts but I have neither the time nor the patience for that anymore.

I agree and it's why I don't dress up a lot. Every now and then I'll go through my things and arrange my boots and shake out shawls and stuff lol but I haven't wore anything since I moved to Florida :/ But I know it's all there if and when I do decide to get shimmied up. I love my stuff though and I love when others dress up too because I love that look on me and on others. You'll have to take pics, all you ones dressing up as Stevie this year. Maybe it will motivate me

Does Pasties mean the same thing over there as it does here?

Because yeah, they do make the holiday kind of big.

I will take pics and post, for sure. I was looking for some cheap chain necklaces yesterday and what do I find but a freaking crescent moon necklace. Granted, it's not nearly as fabulous as Stevie's but it's the same shape with large rhinestones. It totally "looks" like Stevie..even if you didn't know she wore one like that. If I had gone off in search of a crescent moon necklace, I NEVER would have found one !!

Will hand out candy, but not much else. Not sure if it will me me or my husband to take my 2 year old Bumble Bee trick-or-treating.

I've gone to parties as Stevie in the past, also a gypsy. This year I put on my husband's Navy uniform & called it a night.

I am in college, so I didn't want to spend ANY money- I'm going to be a butterfly- my mom teaches first grade, and that was her costume this year. There is a party tonight, but I don't feel like going because I am working all weekend and I have homework to do. Lame, I know. I'm going trick-or-treating with some of my friends on Monday though. Haven't gone since about 5th grade, and I'm a little excited!
