One-of-a-Kind Costuming On The Cheap

Bellevue, WA (PRWEB) October 12, 2003

If spending more than $ 20 on your costume just to look like everyone else is what you’re aiming for this Halloween, don’t read any further.

On the other hand, if you’d like to express your individuality, wear a totally one-of-a-kind costume, and do it all for under $ 20, your best bet is – you guessed it – a thrift store.

Come Halloween season, Savers and Value Village thrift stores across the nation transform into Halloween Factories, offering literally thousands of costuming ideas for the frugal individualist. “If you’re short on ideas, our Costume Coordinators will literally become your personal shoppers, helping you mix new and used costumes, clothing and accessories to come up with something totally unique,” says Gina Cohen, Communications Specialist for the chain.

Savers and Value Village stores offer a Custom Costume Guide in-store for free as well, with over 75 great ideas to get the creative juices flowing.

Here is a smattering of one-of-a-kind costumes you can put together yourself for under $ 20:

·    Wind- affix loose clothing to hangers and attach all items to your body so they “bend” the same direction, sweep hair in the same direction and spray it into place

·    Happy Camper- jeans, sweatshirt, flannel, backpack; paint face all yellow with big black smile and eyes

·    Heisman Trophy- leggings cut off below knee, old football jersey, shoes and helmet, socks for shoulder pads; spray-paint all clothing gold and use gold face paint on exposed skin

·    Smarty Pants- hot glue Smarties candy rolls to a pair of old jeans, pair with “librarian” glasses

·    Speed Bump- yellow sweatpants and sweatshirt; roll a spare tire in black paint then roll it over the chest and knees of the sweat suit to create a tire tread

http://www.costumez.org/saloon-girl-costume/

Back in the old days of the Wild West, there were many lonely cowboys trying to make a living in a place where the men often outnumbered the women by as much as three to one. In the western towns where the cowboys lived, it was the saloon girl’s role to brighten their evening, after a hard days work.

The saloon girl would of course sing for the cowboys, dance with them and even keep them company, while they spent their hard earned money drinking and gambling on the premises. The saloon girl’s dresses were always bright, colorful and above all sexy, so is it any wonder that saloon girl fancy dress costumes are today one of the most popular types of outfits at fancy dress parties.

Whether you opt for a daring saloon girl costume or a sultry saloon madam outfit, there is no doubting that you are going to turn heads at the party. However, here are some tips to help make sure you choose the outfit that is right for you.

Make sure that your costume fits well

It is common sense perhaps, but there is always that temptation to squeeze into the costume that you really want, even though it is a size too small. You would not choose your regular clothes like that, so please don’t choose your party outfit that way either. If you go to the right online store, they will have great costumes in your size, which will fit you perfectly.

Make sure you feel totally confident in the outfit

This is extremely important. Do not be forced into choosing a costume, whether it be by your partner or a friend, which you do not feel comfortable in. Remember, this is your fantasy, your party and most of all, your choice.

Make sure your partner’s costume is a good match

This is perhaps not as important as the first two tips, however, in my experience it is always better to turn up to a party with your partner in costumes that compliment each other. So if you are wearing a saloon girl fancy dress costume, then perhaps your partner could go as a cowboy, a gambler or perhaps even in Mexican fancy dress.

Buy online with confidence

Make sure your fancy dress supplier has the costume(s) that you want in stock and is able to supply them in plenty of time for the party.

Go to Saloon Girl Fancy Dress for all your Wild West fancy dress costumes, including cow girl, Indian squaw and of course saloon girl fancy dress.
