LOVE IT! I want to get a dark wig - although I fear with my light light skin I will look Elvira-y......

I might have the same problem...

I think that you could pull off the wig, Laurie, because you have brown eyebrows. If you had blond brows then I'd say you might want to stay away from the wig (I did a dark wig last year and looked - not so hot because my brows/lashes are lighter).

true that. plus it's auburn which is pretty much what I am, they have a black one too. I think I will go with auburn though.

Just found these shoes on Ebay



they fit the bill right.?

what do I call myself? 50s girl? Bettie Page wannabe?

The shoes are hot - just say you're Betty Paige - that's what I thought you were going for as soon as you posted the wig.

---

ok cool. for $11, I thought they would work. That is the highest heel I have ever bought though...

Typically she wore much less then that, but screw it. But I am not wearing lingerie!

Agreed! It is the blondish eyelashes that do me in - creating the albino with a wig look

I'd post a picture to illustrate how awful I looked but I'll spare everyone's eyes.
But if you can try one on to see how you look - you never know!

you could always use brown shadow to darken your brows.

Laurie, I can barely put lipstick on - it never even occurred to me to darken my eyebrows.
You are a genius.

I have attempted this and the end result is ....... hideous. It looks like I painted them on...while drunk or incapacitated

I do it to fill them in cause sometimes they look sparse to me.

genius! I like that.

with a pencil or shadow?

A pencil never works for me. But a dusty shadow, works well. Then I comb them a bit, and viola.

Totally shadow. I am beauty stupid - I had a roommate in college tell me I was never allowed to touch her curling iron cause it revolted against me everytime. I will have to attempt combing them after. The outsides look good, but the insides look ridiculously fake....

Someone HAS to be this. If I didn't buy mine yesterday, I totally would!

OMG LOVE THAT!

eta:: For $57 I'd consider it but why must they make things in 'one size fits all' when it so doesn't

I know! A lot of costumes are that way.

man, that would be so funny. I have to email it to my friend - she would totally pull that off.

I don't know if I could handle all of the attention

Laurie, I'm loving that costume website.
They recognized the need for men to be able to dress like playboy bunnies.
