After much debate and an exhausting and fruitless shopping spree earlier this week for a store-bought outfit, I decided to go as Tippi Hedren from The Birds. It's a Hitchcock movie, and I figure that will satisfy the "B" requirement of one of the parties that I plan to attend tomorrow night.I have to run tomorrow and since I figured I had a lot to work on tonight, I was just going to rest my legs and workout at home with my resistance bands. Best investment ever from the Target dollar aisle!
Here's how the costume started. I bought a pink suit for $10 at Goodwill and some green dye at Hobby Lobby for $5. I went home tonight and tried to dye the suit, but the dye did not take to the fabric of the suit. Well, shit. So I got dressed again and went out to Ross. God, I love that store. I bought several suits, but I decided on one when I got home. It's not green, like the one Tippi wears in the movie (which I streamed on Netflix tonight to catch up on details), but no one is going to care because I'm going to rock it out with black birds glued to it. I bought several white feathery birds and some black spray paint and a glue gun, so I'm good to go.
