I have a Halloween costume question, I know, I know, it’s not October yet
?
Okay I know it seems early for talking about Halloween, but I like to plan ahead
Everyone always calls me a porcelain doll because I have platinum blonde hair, big blue eyes, and really smooth white skin. So I have decided that I want to be a porcelain doll for Halloween and not a scary one, a pretty one.
What are some makeup and costume ideas for this? And remember I don’t wanna look scary and I don’t wanna look like a slut, just a classic pretty doll.
Thanks for the help
yay! good choice! i think the doll costumes are the cutest by FAR and they stand out. plus, you can get as elaborate as you want! (:
here are some pics to start with, then i’ll break it down for you!

those are all from america’s next top model cycle 6.
a good way to pick how to dress is look at the “sexy” costumes. they’ve got that “little girl” look to them, and you don’t have to wear it and be sexy, but just get ideas.

another way to make the costume is be a character doll. like, for example, be an alice in wonderland doll, or a dorthy doll.
the basics of a doll outfit is a fluffy dress or skirt and top with a petticoat underneath and a big bow in the hair. lots of frills, bows, lace, and ruffles. maybe ballet slippers and a teddy bear. and maybe some knee-high socks or white tights.
then, look at pictures of real porcelain dolls for makeup. most of them have red lips, rosy cheeks and LONGGG eyelashes. fake ones should do it for you.
now, the hair. ah, the hair. haha. put in a big bow and SPIRAL curls. like this: http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.customcostumes.ca/Catalogue/Images/24525.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.customcostumes.ca/Catalogue/ProdDetail.asp%3FID%3D413%26GroupID%3D7%26CatID%3D23%26SubID%3D&usg=__ry2EWSFyyBg8EwD0MWMYDRYzwoU=&h=600&w=455&sz=52&hl=en&start=14&um=1&tbnid=GGDra9pIf_lXuM:&tbnh=135&tbnw=102&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dspiral%2Bcurls%26hl%3Den%26rlz%3D1C1CHMQ_enUS308US308%26sa%3DX%26um%3D1
but, of course, it won’t be a wig. haha. and maybe a bow to match the color of your dress: http://s2.thisnext.com/media/230×230/Big-Hair-Bows-Jersey-Bow_A57FFB50.jpg
good luck, happy halloween, from a fellow plan-aheader(:
