“My dog participated as well. Character is Strawberry Shortcake (or Slutcake, in my case) – this is one of several versions of this costume – my others are better, however I wanted to do something different since I have LOADS of strawberry stuff. I’m a bit obsessed. YAY – thank you for getting me to have fun on a night I would have otherwise done nothing for!”

Oh, a typo! I’m guessing it’s mine and was cut and pasted – it says “My dog participated at well” – should say “as” ;)
She had fun, too. She has pink hair but you can’t really tell.
both of these are so cute! im definetely dressing up so good next i.d.u.d. i also need some inspiration for a party this friday. i have no idea what to go as! suggestions anyone?
oh yeah, and were you in myer today by any chance gala? cause i think me and my sister saw you.
Ebbonnie — Yes! I walked through, quickly. I was wearing a long black sweater & black leggings, platform New Rock boots, a black headscarf & huge mirrored shades, haha. You should have said hello!
& what’s the theme for the party?
& Opium — I just fixed the typo, thanks for pointing it out!
umm theres no theme its just dress up as anything really. and i dunno i guess i would get a bit freaked out if people in shops were just like “hey! i go on your website everyday!” but maybe thats just me.
i guess for my costume i want soemthing amazingly cute and original that people will be like omfg how feckin awesome. i was thinking of dressing up as a nursery rhyme character, seeing as how i didnt dress up on i.d.u.d.
omg i also have convinced my friends to dress up with me next idud! it will be awesome to the max yo.
