I'm wearing an orange dress with black tights and a black sweater. I work in academia, so dressing up would make me look and feel like an undergrad, lol.
When I was in 6th grade I dressed up as a bag of potatoes. that was my favorite costume. my mom got a giant potato sack from the grocery store - the sack that the individual bags come in. It was cue. I tried to re-create it when I was in high school for a last minute costume for a party but I had to cut the sides since I wasn't as slender as I was when I was 12, lol.
I am not dressed up in the least today. I'm boring, LOL.
My favorite costume? Well, when I was about 8 and really into American Girl dolls and history stuff, my grandmother sewed me a 1700s-style dress and I went as a colonial girl. That was pretty awesome. More recently, I was Cyndi Lauper 3-4 years ago and that costume was an absolute blast, both to make and to wear!

I'm not dressed up today either, but I might put something together tonight when we take the kids trick or treating.
I have two favorite costumes. The first was from when I was younger. My mom made me a Maleficent costume that came out awesome! The second was from a few years back. I made a peacock costume with a corset that I sewed individual peacock feathers onto and I wore it with this really fluffy tutu skirt. It was really cute (not slutty) and was a huge hit at our Halloween Party.
Not dressed up today. I have a pair of bat earrings I had hoped to wear, but I think they got left behind at my parents' house when I moved.
Favorite costume is a three way tie: 1. Sailor Mercury from the Japanese anime Sailor Moon 2. Bee Girl from the music video for Blind Melon's song "No Rain" 3. Ever since I was little, I had always wanted to go as Princess Leia from Star Wars. And I just kept forgetting about it when Halloween would hit. I finally got to dress as her four years ago--which wound up being the night I got proposed to.
I wear butterfly wings for my school's Halloween parade every year. H and I are going to his sisters' Halloween party on Saturday but I don't feel like dressing up. I have a bunch of costumes, I'll have to throw one on or I'll be the only one not dressed up.
My favorite costume was my Elivs costume from a few years ago.
That's the shirt I wore/am still wearing today! No costume, but it's Halloween-y!! I don't know what my favorite costume would have been..I know when I was around 4 or 5 my mom made me a bride costume. I really liked it! I also dressed as a hooker my freshman year of college and that was the first night H and I hung out after we met....so hey. lol.
I went as a "butterfly" and DD was a caterpillar during the day and at night DS was a minion, daddy was GRU (kinda Lol) and DD was a cupcake! I love Halloween!!

My favorite was a german barmaid in college.

My whole department is dressed up like Despicable Me characters. I'm a "girl" minion.
My favorite when I was younger was pippy long stockings. Grown up probably a referee throwing yellow flags out at the bars!
