HELP!!!!!!
I'm a teenage girl with a cinnamon-ish complexion and longish black hair. I need to get a costume for Halloween--FAST--and easy. I was thinking some sort of queen, but I'm not sure. Anyone have any ideas as to what I can make at home or get really easily for not a lot of money and still look okay when Oct. 31 comes around?
Please add detail or give me a link so I know how do do the costume. Thanks SO much. And thanks!!!!!

an oompa loompa. my teenage sis was one last yr. it was hilarius. all u need is a quick trip to walmart:
a pair of nurse/scrub pants; in a size too large for u
a small amount white fabric
brown construction paper or foam paper
green hair spray dye
orange and white face make up
tall brown socks
brown turtle neck
cheap white gloves
cut the white fabric into two strips and hot glue them to the top of the scrub pants. cut two circles out of the brown paper as glue on as large brown buttons. roll the pants up and wear the long brown knee socks. put ur hair into pony tails on the top of ur head so ur hair is a lot shorter. spray it green and put orange all over ur face. put white on ur eyebrows and lips. wear the turtleneck underneath and put on the gloves. stuff the shirt and pants with watever u want so ur fat.
its rly a great costume and not too expensive. everyone loved it last year
or u could always be a jabberwocky.
Two of my friends are being hobos and my other friends are being toddlers.
Hobo costume:
-overalls
-plaid shirt
-sperry’s or any brown shoes
-a straw hat
-a pillow cover for your candy
-optional beard
Toddler costume:
-adult diaper
-ballerina top
-giant paperclip (if you have one)
-pacifier (if you can get a big one then it’ll look better!)
-white tights
-pink flats
-wear your hair straight up or in pigtails if you have thin hair
I don’t really know your age so it’s kind of hard to suggest something. All different age groups have different opinions…
OMG do you like starbucks? well, be a starbucks cup!!
i was one a couple years ago, and it was easy to make. just go to a local fabric store like JoAnne and buy some white fabric, then form it into a cup shape, paste the logo of starbucks on, and draw all the boxes and stuff. if you want you can also make a humongous cardboard sleeve to go around it! i reccommend using an actual starbucks cup as a model. overall-like straps will hold it on you.
p.s. just to see what they would say, i went to starbucks in my starbucks cup costume, and they gave me a free drink!
p.s. i know its not the queen you were looking for, but its pretty creative!
You could try being a greek goddess. All you would need would be a regular white sheet and a brooch to tie it together. You could pull your hair back in a semi ponytail and make a wreath with twigs and leaves. If you have any golden colored brooches that would go best (a bracelet would make a nice accessory)
I think pocahontas would be a super easy costume for you to recreate at home and…sounds like it would be perfect for you!
