And wear this for halloween?
We're going to a dressy up party for it and I want to go as something fun, I know it's not exactly scary but I still think it will look great.

DP has said he will refuse to be seen with me if I insist on wearing it. Aibu to think he is a party pooper?

It's fine, what exactly is his problem?

SPsTwerkingNineToFive · 29/09/2013 17:15

Grin Sorry but I'm laughing.

livinginwonderland · 29/09/2013 17:15

hahaha

IfYouLoveSomebodyLetThemSleep · 29/09/2013 17:16

His problem is that I'll be dressed as a pink, sparkly unicorn. He's very sensible and thinks I'm crazy!

What is his suggestion then? I like the unicorn. What is the horn made of?

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 29/09/2013 17:19

Does he not realise that sensible and dressing up party are mutually exclusive concepts, IfYouLoveSomebody??

KneesoftheBee · 29/09/2013 17:20

If you want to wear it, go ahead. You might need to remember that horn when you go through doorways. Grin

Is your DP going dressed up?

IfYouLoveSomebodyLetThemSleep · 29/09/2013 17:20

What if I carried a zombie head like a little party bag. Would that make it halloweeny?

His suggestion was a sexy witch Hmm

OP posts:
KneesoftheBee · 29/09/2013 17:22

Put a zombie head on top of the horn.

IfYouLoveSomebodyLetThemSleep · 29/09/2013 17:22

He is going as wolverine. Yawn.

Dunno how you'd make it, rolled up cardboard painted white and glittery?

BillyBanter · 29/09/2013 17:22

Look at you dressed as a sparkly pink unicorn, looking like a fool. Why can't you dress sensibly like me and my friends, in our bloodied zombie outfits.

TessTackle · 29/09/2013 17:23

I will be gutted if you don't wear this OP. What an amazing costume idea!! If I had anywhere to go dressed as a unicorn I'd do it in a heartbeat. So many women go as a "sexy..." Insert whatever non Halloween related costume here, it becomes boring! Yours will be the best at the party Smile

dopeysheep · 29/09/2013 17:25

Sexy witch pfffft. Anyway a unicorn goes well with wolverine. I think you should wear it it's great.

DejaVuAllOverAgain · 29/09/2013 17:26

OP that made me laugh...in a good way Grin

You have to wear it. If I was at the same party and saw you wearing that I'd have to get to know you simply because it would put a smile on my face and generally people who can put a smile on my face are the ones I get on with.

IfYouLoveSomebodyLetThemSleep · 29/09/2013 17:27

I'd hate for you to be upset Tess, I guess I'll have to go through with it Grin

Now where can I get a nice wig and sparkly shoes from?

OP posts:
TSSDNCOP · 29/09/2013 17:34

Here's a great wig OP.

charleslingus · 29/09/2013 17:35

That is seriously awesome, you can go as anything for Halloween these days as long as you make the effort. Last year we had pinatas for the party and I got a unicorn one and chucked some fake blood all over its horn.

Just a thought, make sure you make the horn a convincing horn shape and maybe go heavy on the sparkles so it's not just pink and phallic...

wildfig · 29/09/2013 17:38

I think it's brilliant, so long as you add a tail and/or hooves to make it very clear you're a unicorn, and not, say, one of the Pet Shop Boys gone more disco.

ZZZenagain · 29/09/2013 17:39

it is not really a Halloween outfit in terms of dark and spooky but I like it.

IfYouLoveSomebodyLetThemSleep · 29/09/2013 17:41

Anyone good at crafty stuff, how would you make the horn?

Don't worry charles, I plan on being the sparkliest thing in all of sparkle history. I saw someone go as a sleeping bag to halloween last year, how is that scary? At least a unicorn looks nice :)

macthecatsmum · 29/09/2013 17:42

That is fantabulous. My DD is now re considering her zombie Alice. Def beats "sexy witch" cak. and when he is hot, sweaty and wondering how to drink with admantium claws and a mask-you will still look cool.

ZZZenagain · 29/09/2013 17:43

maybe the sleeping bag was a germ? Friend of mine went as a pimple once and oozed custard out of a bag through a hole in the sheet she was covered with.

Mind you we were at school back then

rockybalboa · 29/09/2013 17:43

Ha, that's fab!

IfYouLoveSomebodyLetThemSleep · 29/09/2013 17:46

I know it's not spooky but I don't know what other occasion I would get chance to wear it, and I reeeeaally want to wear it.

Looking at sequinned dresses now :)
