AnnieP Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Hey folks! I have decided to hold a party at the end of March to celebrate my 40th and told people that it is going to be "come dressed as a song title" themed, after reading about it here some months ago and thinking to myself "what a great idea!". Now however, I am beginning to get a few tremors. I still think its a FAB idea, but am totally stumped as to what to do for myself. I want to look fairly glamorous, not silly (itsy teeny weeny yellow polka dot bikini is OUT). and I would really like to be dressed in a way that is maybe slightly cryptic, rahter than obvious (Lady in Red: groan). Can you put your minds to it for me and inspire?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hillfamily Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Hey folks! I want to look fairly glamorous, not silly so 'Little red rooster' by the Rolling Stones is not an option how about 'Devil with the blue dress' by Mitch Ryder or 'She's a rebel' by Green Day or even 'Walk like an Egyptian' by the Bangles :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A chickychickychick-ENN!! Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Mysterious Girl by Peter Andre (veiled outfit) Maneater by Hall and Oates (something very daring and a pair of fangs? Although not sophisticated is it?!) Don't Rain on My Parade by Barbra Streisand - a very glam, kick-ass outfit with an umbrella? Girlfriend In A Coma by The Smiths (at the very end of the night! ) It's so hard to think of something both sophisticated and guessable...

Snowy Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Hmm,I've got the Stones 'She's Like a Rainbow' going round in my head. Could have potential! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jillus Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I like the Rainbow song and great for a costume. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhapsody Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 'She's like the Wind' - just carry around a can of beans.. 'Killer Queen'- Tiara and a sword/gun in holster. 'Creep'- wear all black and sneak around. 'Buffalo Gals'- horns! 'Back in Black'- wear an outfit dyed black at the back 'Mustang Sally'- pantomime horse ' ' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couperwife Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I was going to suggest Killer Queen - then you could go as glam as you wanted to Ill have a look see if I can see anything else cathy x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redhotchick Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 '99 Red Balloons' ( and nothing else!) Best hope no one has a pin handy for that one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Killer queen sounds very good - lovely robes, crown & lots of blood & a dummys head to carry round. Oooo gruesome! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Why not look up what was in the charts on the day of your birth and choose from there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted January 30, 2009 Author Share Posted January 30, 2009 You guys are fab. I love killer queen. Easy and as glam as you like. Now... to find a tiara.... oh, and gun! But perhaps Fat bottomed girsl would be easier. I will investigate the charts from the day of my birth: I think "Where do you go to My Lovely" was no 1. Perhaps I should just disappear half way through the evening? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ana's flock Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Material girl - just wrap yourself in yards and yards of beautiful fabric materials, silks, chiffons, lace, velvets... a bit cryptic though, but can be glamorous... just an idea.
