I really loved that costume. It's tempting to just be that again. But I'm attempting to broaden my horizons. So... What do YOU think I should be for Halloween?? :) Leave your suggestions in the comments. If I get enough decent suggestions then we'll have a poll later and as long as it's not too complicated- the winner is what I'll be for Halloween! I can't decide on my own anyways. :)
***
I've already watched my two favorite Halloween shows, and plan on watching them many more times before the spooky season's over. Ok, so I don't watch true Halloween movies, I like to stay on the "cute" side of Halloween... One of those movies would be Hocus Pocus! During the movie my sister and I were commenting back and forth on my status with our favorite quotes. Yes we're ridiculous, and we love it.
It went on a lot longer than that. But i's all I could fit before the image became to small and hard to read.
And for your viewing pleasure...
So leave your costume suggestions in the comments! And remember that I'm still taking questions for my Q&A post coming soon. :)

I HAVE to watch hocus pocus every year
Seriously! Too too funny! My favorite Sarah Jessica Parker role by far! Why don't you dress up (or you and two other girls) as the witches from Hocus Pocus? A red head, blonde, and brunette? That could be fun...and you can go around singing I Put A Spell On You! :p
Dressing up for Halloween is sooo fun! You and your Sis are cute as hobos. Halloween movies rule too! There's a place around here called Saunders Farm that is basically a huge halloween fest! From crazy mazes, to haunted walks (with hired actors to jump out and scare you) to pumpkin patches and a bunch of other things it's a good time! Can't wait to go!
As for costumes. What about the opposite of last year? Frills and sparkles and wings?
Hocus Pocus! Loved that movie!! I used to have an inappropriate crush on the cat....
What about a pirate?? Like, a pirate wench, that's always fun. You get to wear awesome boots!
The hobo costumes are genius! You look awesome. Mmh, and a costume for this year...I'm going to be lame and say vampire. Haha.
what a pretty spider hahaha
i might put that movie on in the background when i stop reading blogs and get to work today :)
hmmmmm halloweeeennnn costume. i'm going to be luna lovegood this year i think. hmmm. wow it is hard to think of costumes isn't it. it took like a month to think of luna.
a football player!
Dude, hobos=awesome! And Hocus Pocus is one of my favorite movies, I totally remember watching it with my sister every year!
Oh my gosh! I LOOOOOVE Hocus Pocus! Its my ALL TIME FAVORITE halloween movie! Lets watch it together. Me and my cousins used to pretend we were the three witches and went as them for many halloween celebrations. :) I think you should go as cruella devil for halloween this year, she is always real fun to dress up as. I especially like the two different colors of hair. :)
hahah I LOVE hocus pocus. too much. Right now I'm on this Harry Potter craze so I'm just going to say be hermoine. All you need is a navy v-neck sweater [from f21] a red and gold tie [easy to find on ebay for cheap] a skirt and curly hair! easy! I'm being Luna Lovegood hah so I think I might make a robe cause it is also supes totes easy :)
p.s . you're right about the fishtail briad- smaller sections would make it more fishy taily :) thanks!
Lovely Little Rants
LOVE the hobo costumes.
Also LOVE hocus pocus!! One of my favorites ever. :)
I think you should be.... a pumpkin or rainbow brite. :)
We are going to be the Leg Lamp, Fragile box, and the "Pink Nightmare" bunny from A Christmas Story hahaha. I'm putting us in a costume contest too. I'm SO excited!
The hobo outfit looked really awesome. You could do something hilarious like be Kim Kardashian or something. Put a pillow in your pants to make it look like you have her butt and then get the fattest fake ring you can find. Maybe wear a wedding dress since she just got married? Big fake eye lashes. Totally go all out lol. That might be a bit much though.

I saw the best Halloween costume last year! It was Barbie and Ken. She got a super blonde wig and they both kept their arms stiff the whole night! It was awesome!
Any of the witches from Hocus Pocus would be awesome too! :)

I, like everyone else, love that movie as well!
There are so many things you can be!!! You need to tell us if you want to be scary, funny, or girly!
Being Kim kardashian would be funny. Twilight movie is coming out soon, you could be one of the cullens for fun.
Scary, zombie bride
Girly, Velma from scooby doo!! Or something like a flapper!
Sorry I have too many ideas!
LOVE that movie! Let's watch it :) & I don't really have any ideas! i'm lacking in that department as well... i'll let you know if i think of anything :]
HAHA! Your hobo outfit is sooooooo cute! you are darling!

Hocus Pocus is definitely one of the greatest movies of all time! I love your hobo costume. Awesome!
<3LJ
"tis FIRM!" ..love hocus pocus! and, casper. October means time for these movies ASAP.
And, i think you should dress up as a tree. Brown bottom half, green top half, green makeup, stick real leaves in your hair, wire some leaves all over your arms....cha ching!
K I LOVE Hocus Pocus! "Helllllooooooo, Saleeeeeem" (with a yodel added in :) HA HA! Okay I think you should be a one of those witches and sing like them the entire night. For some reason your hobo picture isn't pulling up for me. I bet it was an adorable costume! I know, Halloween is hard huh?
beautiful blog!!! i'm following you!!!
oh my gosh i HAVE to watch hocus pocus every year without fail. it's the best and it's even better during the month of October. I think you would make a cute pippy long stocking! haha with the braids and freckles. that is my suggestion!
Well jeez, it sounds like you had a lot of fun watching hocus pocus. I laughed so hard reading your facebook comments with your friend. That is a super good movie. My roommate used to say "yabos" all the time and I never knew where she got it from. hahaha. we should have a blogger bonfire!
you should be one of the witches with your sister!! it would be PERFECT!! :)
hocus pocus! i neeeeeed to watch this asap! it's been forever!
AH I love hocus pocus! I need to watch it! was it on TV? I doubt they'd be in red box!
Best Halloween movie! Love Bette! Although not gonna lie, that & Witches freaked me out till I was like 12... :)
I haven't seen that movie forever! I must watch it soon.
I wish I had a good idea for you to be for halloween. I never know. I'm being Ariel (from the scene kiss the girl...the thrift Store helped me)
Can't wait to see what you're going to be!
I love that movie! Also, Halloween, although technically we don't do halloween in Australia. I'm making it my business to change that though, this year I'm going as Pee-Wee Herman.
I LITERALLY just watched Hocus Pocus last night at my friends house! We had "hocus pocus" night and I couldn't help but quote during the whole movie! Love it.
I had such a crush on Max Dennison (sp?) .. I think most liked Zachary Binx. His little sister was so precious!
A couple of years ago my friends and I dressed up as Disney Princesses! You should to :) I was Mulan! haha
hahahahaha I love the hobo idea! So simples but sounds really fun! Im in the process of making myself a crayola crayon costume!
what an awesome costume!!! even better that you can keep warm with it hahah!!
Gentri. Just when I thought we couldn't become better blogging buddies {BBB'S?!} you go ahead and say Hocus Pocus is one of your Favorite halloween movies you watch every year?! That's like my go-to halloween movie! Then it's Casper. ahh I just love halloween. If I could afford it I'd deck out our whole apartment to be an amazing haunted house.
oh and you could be this! http://www.google.com/imgres?q=toilet+paper+roll+costume+on+Let%27s+Make+A+Deal&um=1&hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&biw=1024&bih=408&tbm=isch&tbnid=IUX22SxCrNdWCM:&imgrefurl=http://www.dogsandjeans.com/2009_10_01_archive.html&docid=aL39LPr304C95M&w=304&h=320&ei=JhGVTtW5LKmMigKB8ayVBQ&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=68&vpy=64&dur=2297&hovh=230&hovw=219&tx=127&ty=131&page=12&tbnh=80&tbnw=75&start=168&ndsp=16&ved=1t:429,r:0,s:168
Oh, I am such a big fan of Hocus Pocus! I remember watching it as a little girl and thinking Sarah Jessica was so beautiful!
Good luck figuring out a costume! I'm not good at that.

you guys were the cutest hobos I've EVER seen :)
I haven't seen Hocus Pocus in years!! :) And i love that you and your sister swapped all those stellar quotes!
and halloween costumes...I'm a sucker for dressing up. this year i had the idea to have my hubs and little boy be Mario and Luigi, then I'd be Princess Peach. But my baby belly looks a bit too silly in the pink dress I found at the DI ;) You'd totally rock Princess Peach! (Pink dress, gold and turquoise jewelry, while long gloves, and crown)
But if you're not the princess type, you could go the superhero route :) what is it about wearing a cape that is SO fun and brings you back to childhood? :)

Cute costume! You look like Mary Poppins after she's been hanging out with the chimney sweepers!
Hmmm...as for costume suggestions, if we celebrated Halloween, I'd go for something cute like Alice in Wonderland or 1920's flapper.
My mind is completely blank about costumes :) I'm having a party today, where we have to dress up as TV-characters. I'm going to be Buck, from "The United States of Tara" :D
xx indie by heart
ps. Your little prize is on its way now - the package isn't exactly pretty because of all the labels and tapes I had to put there, but I hope you like what's inside! ^^ and that it gets to you without any damage. ♥

Hocus Pocus is such a classic!
I always have such a hard time coming up with what I should dress up like, so I don't really have a suggestion for you, haha, sorry :)
i LOVE the hobo costume idea. classic! i'm plum out of original suggestions. growing up, mama dressed me like a gypsy every year. she just put my hair in a side ponytail and i wore this cape with stars on it. it was attractive, let me tell ya:)
and yes for halloween movies! i love charlie brown's "it's the great pumpkin" :)
I have no good costume ideas! but I love how into Hocus Pocus you are ;)
hmmm you should be...a crayon : ) a pink one.
hahahaha! I LOVE hocus pocus! and you were pretty much the prettiest hobo ever! Sorry I missed the meet up last week. I left my computer cord in wyoming and have been really disconnected without it. I ended up taking out my best friend for her birthday that night. She just moved to SL, so she doesn't know anyone, and needed a little celebration ya know? Sorry for being so lame!
