OK, I think most of you have a fair idea of what Terry and I look like. We've been invited to a 40th birthdya party next month and the theme is pop stars of the 70's and 80's.

Who should we go as? Don't want to be spending a fortune on costumes so something easily adaptable please.

Just thought. I could send Terry as Boy George. I could make him hair by plaiting lots of wool and putting bows and stuff in it then put a hat on. Get a big pink shirt/coat and stuff from the charity shop and he'll be well away. He says that no way is he being Dolly Parton again Posted Image

Now who can I go as?

Cool! We are supposed to be going to a 70's party this Saturday. I've got my outfit which is just a psychadelic mini dress. Not sure I'll look as hot as I was when I was in my 20's though.

I'm so crap at these type of things. I've got to come up with an outfit or your favourite TV character :blink: I was trying to think of something cheap and easy to come up with so I was thinking if I blew up some blue water balloons and stuck them together somehow into a tall tower, then stuck it on my head and went as Marge Simpson lol

What about Boy George? as his outfits were pretty easy to copy just need a very large tee shirt. Or Adam and the Ants and get he white stripe across the nose? Actually go as Wham and get a white tee shirt and paint on the large black lettering then backcomb or give your fringe the flick treatment lol....or what about Captain Sensible :lol:

Well party was last night. Terry went as a very reluctant Marc Bolan.
