Anyone have any fantastic ideas for Halloween they want to share? (Anything that is not Sarah Palin. Seriously, everyone I know is buying patriotic bikinis and fake hunting rifles right now.)

i checked out the jonathan saunders line. the sizing isn't consistent, and while that marbelized fabric has a rad-looking print, it looks and feels cheap. i was bummed.

and i'm going as ziggy stardust for halloween! i always do DIY costumes. i combined a store-bought wig and leggings with a tuxedo shirt my mom had and an old swimsuit and boots.

I just got the Jonathan Saunders dress, and I love it so much. I also got a polka dot one with a red belt. I think Jonathan did a great job.

the Target dress is completely see-through on the back. Only 2 affordable choices, too?

I think everyone should take a look at the back of the Phillip Lim. I thought it was a little drab until I saw the gorgeous line of hook-and-eye closures.
Look!

Oho-no. One of those cheap ones is divine. I tried it on last week and am buying it tomorrow.

I'm talking the gap dress, of course. The Saunders line looks crappy in person.
