We decided on goffs (thanks Louise)
Went out today and got black shirt and leggings for hubby :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
Long wig for me i have a long black skirt and black top to wear.
I also bronght black lipstick black eyelinr and black nail varnish. that should do the trick.

Jay, thats a great idea, not sure if they would agree :shock:

I was out with my kids and we saw a midget walking in front of us, i was waiting for one of the kids to say something. But it was worse than that, my middle one (Fay) started singing the Oompa Loompa song.
She was only 4 at the time so she wasn't being horrible just singing about what she saw.
It was a bad moment!!!!

Oh Anne how awful for you! Hopefully if the person saw it was a such young child they would understand it was innocently done.

Pale faces Anne, almost white. Jewelry with stones perhaps a crucifix. Black lace gloves, fishnets, boots or high heels, add pieces of chiffon scarfes/ribbon to the skirt, make the top very fitted, push-up bra or anything basque like.

Ok my skirt has pieces of material hanging from it, so that should be fine. got jewellary with stones, thought i will make a crucifix out of tin foil. got fish nets and high heel boots.
I haven't got any gloves, will marrigolds do? or will they spoil the look?

Er no *cough, splutter* you can't wear Marigolds!! You could get lacy gloves in the sales.

Jay I was a Goth 25 yrs ago, I didn't do the black lippy and backcomed hair but I always had a full length black cape and lace gloves!

Anne

I am afraid I am a complete disaster with fancy dress. Still, Louise and Jay seem pretty genned up on all such matters; I do agree with Lou - post a pic here so we can all see you both done up as goths.
