Halloween Costume Trouble

Hey Guys and Girls,

I got back into the Jack The Ripper case again and since I've already been Lizzie Borden I decided
I'm going to be either Jill The Ripper or a whore this year for Halloween but I need some costume ideas.

You are so funny! Either one would be great. If you go as a whore, I'd suggest a necktie with bruising & bloody makeup. I'm a big fan of keeping Halloween scary. Let us know what you decide.

Oh, a Whitechapel strumpet would have a feather boa maybe, a velvet waistcoat, a tarted -up hat, scuffed shoes, torn hose, petticoat lace hanging out below her hem, a blousy-frowsy look, smeared red lip color, rouged cheeks, tousled hair with wispies hanging down, a string of cheap dimestore pearls, reeking of cheap perfume to cover the smell of an unbathed body. Many had terrible teeth, sometimes missing the front two, from being in scuffles or knocked about by "customers". Ooooh , Liz, how I wish I could be there to get you "tarted up"! There are picture's of Jack's victims- poor things.

Well, The Jill The Ripper costume is hard to really create, so if it comes up short then I'll go with the working girl. That I've made alittle costume for, the make up I got. Not really sure what to do with my hair or how much of me to show(campuses are not real safe)but i'll figure it out when mid-terms are over.

I think I found my costume, I have a black dress that I couldn't wear b/c It has a heart-shaped neckline extending to the beginning of my ribs. It showes 2inches of well me on each side and the dress goes down to 5 inches above the knee. I have tied the right side up to 3inches below my hip. As you can tell, it shows alittle of my chest and alot of leg. I think its whorish withought killing my modestity. I hope my mom doesn't see it.I don't think she will.I just need a hairstyle and to pick out the makeup/jewerly.
