My whole Halloween costume pretty much hinged on me winning this dress. I looked all over the internet and at the mall and coulcn't find anything similar. I really wish no one else had bid on it because I ended up paying more than I was really hoping to. When I saw the perfect dress for $9.99, I should have known I wasn't lucky enough to get it at that price. I ended up paying about $16 more than that, but at least I got it. I probably would have paid more for something else if I could have found it. All I need now are a pink wig, pink shoes, sparkly white tights, white belt/sash, pink eyeshadow and red star earrings and I should be able to complete my Jem costume.

Ooh, I can help! K-Mart has belts for a dollar. That picture is wrong, though...the belt is actually red. It might be easier to make it, just modifying a scarf pattern. You could also try that crafty molding stuff for the earrings. For the wig, I'd try Ragstock.

I have seens pics with it pink, red, and white, so I wasn't sure. I just picked one. I was thinking about making the earrings, but I haven't quite decided how I want to go about it yet. I am planning on checking Ragstock when I have the chance. I don't get downtown much anymore.

I popped in the DVD, and her sash is red. You should totally just make it.

Red, got it. The dress should be arriving today so I will probably pick out fabric this weekend. I just bought the shoes! Earring and sash are all that is left!

How's your costume coming along?
