Costume Help

[dusty-oreo.livejournal.com]

There's a costume party in a few weeks and I'm at a bit of a loss for a costume. I haven't actually dressed up in years and now I need to, but I have no idea what to dress up as. I'm looking to partially make it/put together, so any suggestions would help.

I'm not looking for anything like a butterfly or a princess (or anything too gross, on the other side of things). I've considered being a pirate, but I'm not sure how many will do that. Since everyone here is crazy-talented, I thought maybe some of you have experience with this kind of thing...

Also, thanks for the suggestions for stuff to make for my friend (even if that was awhile ago). I got really sick and still haven't gotten around to it, even though she's already been here and left.
