*too soon?...
(top) my friend as edward scissorhands this past halloween.  and yes, she has a jello shot in her hands/scissors.  badassmotherfucker, je sais.  (bottom) my accidentally lame (but potentially awesome given the vintage dress) halloween costume.  my point in posting these pics: is it ridiculous that i'm already thinking about halloween costumes for october 2010?  don't lie...you've thought about it, too.  
last year with limited funds and limited excitement (halloween in paris is not so cray cray), i decided to be a flapper.  it was easy...wear my grandmother's flapper dress and stick a feather in my hair!  of course, no one informed me that a recent 'gossip girl' episode had gone with a flapper/20's theme, which many viewers picked up on.  These viewers were 'subconsciously' my ass swayed to the idea of a flapper costume for halloween.  therefore, everyone assumed i was copying a television show.  fuck.
next year i REFUSE to do a copy cat costume.  i will attempt to be as creative as my scissor-handed friend...although she will be difficult to top.
