half-hearted fancy dress ideas please..

[sara3]

I'm going to an afternoon birthday party tomorrow with my 14 yr old son, there's a very vague fancy dress theme with a music link.. minimal effort expected (for amusement value)!

any ideas? I have long dark curly hair.. if I had a black top hat I'd go as Slash, but obviously I don't. I don't have any wigs either.

minimal effort music-based ideas please, for me and the boy :o)

[lankeela]

Sonny and Cher?

[sara3]

thanks lankeela, will google some pics for ideas :o)

[sara3]

hmmm.. I see Cher had straight hair back in the Sonny days :o/

Take a couple of appropriate tools (eg chisel and plane) and go as The Carpenters

[carmalee]

Dress in black and go as Black Sabbath?

[sara3]

Bummle, that's excellent, thanks!

carmalee, I don't think my son has black clothes.. but good back up plan, thank you :o)

[Bummle]

Why, thank you, Sara! Happy to help. Hope you have a lovely time.

[carmalee]

great idea Brummie - must remember that one

[sara3]

I need a tool belt really, but it's a darn good idea :o)

[cazzz1975]

how about some little horns and a devil tail? its half arsed and quite stylish

[sara3]

thanks, but it needs a music link cazzz..

Trilby and braces - go as Madness

[sara3]

Mosaic, good idea but I can't stand Madness, lol ;o)

Trim, are you suggesting I put my boy in a skirt?!

[sara3]

that's a possibility :o)

I have no time to buy any props. I have to be at work at 7.30am tomorrow :o(

Get some round sunglasses, make a large cross for your neck (on string if no chain)...presto...Ozzy Osbourne! Shame your hair is curly...long and straight would have been better.

[annie0000]

What about Robert Plant from Led Zeppelin - and the boy could be another member (whoever else was in it)

[sara3]

TTG, straight is NEVER better than curly.. shame on you ;o)

annie, I'd have no idea what to wear! I'll also be (almost) the oldest one there, so don't want everyone looking at me with *that* look, lol!
