  2. owh borrowed clothing sounds cute…I’ll borrow his but he will look oh so cute in mine.
    You know I have to say Tokyo a go go…

  3. Secret alter-egos sounds awesome! Borrowed clothes might be hard for someone who lives alone/doesn’t know many people…

  4. Your astrological sign, or the month you were born could be fun.

    <3 Audrey Louise · May 14, 01:54 PM · #
  5. oh oh…i second the astrological sign/birth month option!

    <3 amber · May 14, 01:57 PM · #
  6. How about dressing up like your favorite piece of art, or a specific emotion?

    <3 Kristen · May 14, 01:58 PM · #
  7. A decade? Like, 1920s or 1950s or 1970s?

    <3 Helen · May 14, 02:07 PM · #
  8. The cheapest thrift shop outfit you can buy!

    <3 zoe · May 14, 02:11 PM · #
  9. Why not dress up as a salior girl , super cute !

    <3 Frenchie · May 14, 02:16 PM · #
  10. ooohhh i like the zodiac one…and secret alter-egos. that would be way fun.

    im so excited about my first dress up day!

    <3 rachel · May 14, 02:25 PM · #
  11. I think either secret alter-egos or maybe as your favourite person (actor, history, whatever).

    <3 Katrina · May 14, 02:34 PM · #
  12. i was going to suggest favourite culture past or present, but i really like the birth month idea too!

    <3 Carol · May 14, 02:43 PM · #
  13. I like alter-egos. I can’t do zodiac because i am a virgo/leo cusp. D= Or perhaps a “Dress as the Opposite Gender” type thing ? I’d like that.

    <3 Lesly · May 14, 03:52 PM · #
  14. The zodiac idea is cool but it also means some people are stuck with dressing like bulls, crabs or fish. :\

    <3 Gala · May 14, 03:56 PM · #
  15. i like the zodiac idea; i don’t think you’d have to be toooo literal with it if you didn’t want to :] maybe you could pick one or two traits of your starsign & express that through your outfit? i’m a leo, so i’d do lots of gold & hugely teased hair & channel the kittenish parts of my personality :]

    <3 annaloren · May 14, 04:03 PM · #
  16. how about prom-themed?
    big dresses and corsages!
    sounds like fun!

    <3 gina d · May 14, 04:04 PM · #
  17. In the spirit of the Eurovision Song Contest combined with Zoe’s idea, how about Eurovision for under 10 bucks?!

    I am still giggling about Ukraine’s entry. Very shiny. I love!

    <3 dee dee · May 14, 04:57 PM · #
  18. Well, you wouldn’t have to dress up specifically as your zodiac sign animal, exactly. For instance, I’m a Virgo, and while I could try to look “virginal”, I could alternatively look organized or ambitious (Virgo traits) or use a September theme in a picture. Thats more what I meant by my suggestion.
    Whatever the theme is, though, I’m definitely participating this time around!

    <3 Audrey Louise · May 14, 05:58 PM · #
  19. i looove the zodiac idea!

    <3 Emily · May 14, 06:10 PM · #
  20. zodiac sounds interesting… what about a tea party? any way you want. (im in an alice in wonderland phase)

    <3 Jessica · May 14, 10:00 PM · #
  21. I’m vibing a 1940s theme… Also, I’ve always been fascinated with the idea of a “dandy.” Part Oscar Wilde, part gangster and all style….

    <3 Nadia · May 14, 10:01 PM · #
  22. What about 7 deadly Sins theme? that way its basically anybodys interpretation of a deadly sin…and theres 7 of them to choose from?

    <3 haels · May 15, 12:36 AM · #
  23. This will be my first i.d.u.d., and I’m rather excited about it. My daughter (5) dressed up for April’s – I just wore a tiara for our PB&J lunch.
    The zodiac theme would be easy for me, since I’m a gemini, and could just dress as my own twin. But I love the 1940-50’s theme. Another great excuse to wear my vintage aprons.

    <3 Joy · May 15, 12:42 AM · #
  24. I like the 1940’s theme…but then I am rather partial to film noir. Sometime this year we should do an i.d.u.d. for femme fatales. :)

    <3 NoirMuse · May 15, 02:26 AM · #
  25. How about dress up as your favourite alcoholic drink?

    haha i know it’s so crazy and random, but i’m so tired right now (i just got back from NIN yay!!) and i could really go a vodka sunrise right now :)

    xox

    <3 simone · May 15, 03:14 AM · #
  26. i like the “dress up as the opposite sex” thing as well – though it may have something to do with my obsessive listening to ciara’s “like a boy”!

    <3 natasha · May 15, 05:43 AM · #
  27. the dandy idea is marvelous. or the gender-bender one…
    i also heartly second the alcoholic drink suggestion. or maybe just dress up as your favorite food?

    <3 voltaire · May 15, 07:20 AM · #
  28. What is a dandy? I tried to look it up…

    <3 NoirMuse · May 15, 08:14 AM · #
  29. Oscar Wilde, as mentioned above, is the perfect example of a dandy. Another is Beau Brummel. It used to be a mild insult a bit like ‘pretty boy’ to mean ‘one who takes care of his appearance’.
    There is a specific style associated with it, but I’m not going to be able to describe it. Google ahoy…

  30. CANDY!Favourite food is good.I like candy.I think food could work for lots of people.Would also have to note our fragrances.Or gender bender.Maybe even a dream job idea.I could be anything I ever wanted.

    <3 deanna · May 15, 01:31 PM · #
  31. i like deanna’s idea of dream job. i also think that dressing up like one of your fashion inspirations would be good.

    <3 zara rose · May 15, 06:55 PM · #
  32. wow!! my first idud! pretty excited!! although i’m here in boring singapore, but i brought along all my cook tokyo outfits and stuff i had designed myself. so i should be ready. heh heh.

    themes are really hard to suggest eh? i’m not too hard-up on the zodiac though. no WAY i’m gonna be able to come up with something to do with the aries err, bull, cow, whatever. :)

    but wow it’s only in a few days!! i’m gonna get thinkin’ and hopefully come up with a suggestion.
