Ok folks, in the spirit of avoiding work for as long as possible, and with Halloween coming up...

I am sure we will all have a couple of parties to go to so lets save some time with a thread about the best costume shops or best designers for costumes in sl.

Now in sl the word 'costume' is a little strange... from where I stand, someone's costume is another’s everyday wear - So feel free to include designers that do fashion that could be used as part of a costume as well :).

Our very own Oryx has some awesome stuff, and if you are looking for masks Siyu Suen is the one to see.

I myself have this great 1700ths naval hat that I need to build a costume around so any suggestions would be great.

AND.. if we are going to have a forum Halloween party, hint, hint, we should probably schedule it now so our celebrity members can pencil it into their busy schedules.

But... but... we're always wearing costumes... a great idea Derbor. I'd say we need a particular costume theme for the party like.... animals... or pirates... or something...

Thanks Bree, looking at the level of excitement over this I am starting to think we should have a Pony Play theme or a VAT Refund party... hehe

I suggest a Come as your favorite Linden Party.

I got a great Pirate costume for Talk Like A Pirate Day, and was going to recycle it for Halloween. But then I realized that I was guilty of RL thinking. In SL, the possibilities for "costumes" are far, far more extensive than a new set of clothes.

So i went to Grendel's Children.


And no, I'm not telling you what I'll be coming to the party as. :D

I read that as the alternative definition of 'come.' I don't think I'd want to attend that party... :o

I am bumping you to an 8.5 on the Official Trout Measuring Instrument of Sluttiness. You are an enigma - on the one hand a sweet, gentle, intelligent woman who we would like to wrap up in our arms and protect, and on the other, a temptress to whom we would like to do all sorts of unmentionable things.

Congratulations and shame on you! You are a bit of a slut.

I think the spelling is different, but I didn't major in English...

There was a great shop with zombie stuff on the forum open house tour. Anyone remember whose that was? I'm not able to check my landmarks right now.

So who's planning this thing? Brenda? Derbor? I think we established that Bradley's going to be the Halloween Princess. Or is this just going to be a random occurrence?

If you need a suitable venue, you are welcome to use my large graveyard. It's done out so can be a place to hang out as well as being a shop.

I'm looking at Friday the 26th at the hangout. I'm taking a cue from Cherry's ideas and not planning an event that'll last for only a couple of hours, which will exclude people from one time zone or another, but more of a day long celebration. Starting maybe at 11AM SL time, and just carrying through the day. Maybe some of our members who DJ will do a set, I am looking into maybe getting a few live acts as well, just make it a day in costume, people can come and go through out the day, bring friends etc. Any suggestions can be sent to me in PM or inworld.

LOL! It'd be pretty obvious though because we all know that Daniel Linden is Brenda's alt.
