Ive lost a bet with my girlfriend and now i have to dress like a girl for halloween. Any suggestions?

Question

first off, im not gay and ive never done this before. Ive been told i need to be convincing. If possible it needs to look like im really a girl. Unfortunately im much taller than my girl friends and none of thier clothes fit me. I am on a budget and ive been told that just buying a costume to blend in with the rest of the female costumes is out. She has told me im on my own for the whole venture and that it needs to be good. How do i make this convincing? (at minimum she says i need to wear something knee length or a dress of some sort.) SHe has also convinced most of my other friends not to help me as most of them are girls. Im lost here where do i begin? she wont let me out of this. somebody help! please, only stuff to help me out here, i know its embarassing.

Answer 1

Yes, don't look more feminine than she does.

Answer 2

Do not feel alone.....this is a very common theme at Haloween.

As others have said, visit a thrift store..Good Will, Salvation Army, or whatever, but let's add something:

ASK THE THRIFT STORE STAFF FOR ADVICE.


There is a very good reason for this, and that is you are not alone in doing this...so many men go through it every year the older the staff are used to getting the queries and they will gladly help you with the choices.

They will have shoes, dresses,skirts and...maybe...wigs, as well as jewellery and any other articles you may wish.

If you must wear a bra and have it stuffed I strongly recommend you stay away from the water balloons ...the risk of them breaking on their own is high enough, but it is probable that someone will be playful and you will regret them.

Instead, use some sort of foam or even better look for the filling used in pillows, as you can get the shape you want and it will stay put. A fabric store would have it, but you could just get a cushion from the thrift store and open it up.

If you will be getting makeup stay away from mascara....women use it and it seems OK but it runs and makes a mess of your face.

Stick with a base/foundation and lipstick or maybe a pencil that does the eyes.

Answer 3

make sure you wear flat shoes for the comfort and since your already tall, now these are just suggestions i don't know how far you want to take it okay.lol
you could shave your legs and get some of that self tanning lotion if you have bright white legs, wear either a dress,skirt,or koolots that looks like a skirt but is actually shorts(for your comfort).she don't have to know that's why you chose those.then they sell water bras or you could use water balloons but don't fill them up all the way.
you could go as an old granny look then your shoes will be comfortable, paint your nails you can even buy cheap fake one at walmart that already has a design on them, don't forget the earings clip ons if your ears ain't pierced.
and for make up you will need at least to wear some eye shadow, mascara, possibly blush, lip stick and gloss, don't forget the gloss! lol
okay well thats all i can think of hope your feminine side comes out since you can't get help from your friends!
good luck hope this has helped you out a little.

Answer 4

OK. First off, don't make a bet that will make you resort to yahoo answers again! If you can't handle the loss, DON'T MAKE THE BET!

Now. Why not get a WNBA jersey? When you wear it, you'll look like a man, but it's a woman's jersey! You can say you're a WNBA player, and you won't look any less manly than you do now. Of course, you could go in the other direction and whore it out. You could be a hooker and totally scare the crap out of everybody. Well, have fun with it, good luck!

Answer 5

Try to get some of your girl friends are involved in the process, think of all the attention you'll be receiving. Definitely try to shave legs and arms, chest if low cut. Dress or skirt will be new for you and therefore more fun, as well as some sort of heels.
Thrift stores and Pay less a lot cheaper for a 1 time buy.

Answer 6

If I was in your shoes (and I was once about 20 years ago)

go to the thrift shop find a dress or skirt that fits.

A pair of socks can be used to fill in the bra.

Don't attempt high heels, stick with flats.

get a cheap blond wig at the department store

that is as far as I would go.

Answer 7

I think you should let your face hair grow out a little, so at least you're not trying to be pretty. Get one of those nasty ratty, blonde wigs and put red lipstick on really messy. You can pretend that you are a undercover cop, hooker or something, have some humor with it. Don't they have movies like this?

By the way, you don't have to do anything you don't want to. It's a little strange that she wants you to look like a "realistic" girl. Does she have any strange fantasies, one would wonder...

Answer 8

sucks to be you man, though im sure it could have gone either way. bad break on your part. but such is life, so heres my suggestions...
Start by shaving your legs as it seems she wants you to show them off with wanting you to wear something knee length. If you decide to go with a dress, make sure to wear heels unless your really tall, itll impress the girls that you can do it. If you go sleeveless as many dresses are shave your pits too.

you could try getting your makeup done by a girlfriend she hasnt gotten to yet, or plead your case as proper application will help you look the part, and a wig is a must, unless you have long hair, then if you have the balls get it cut like a girls, after that day go back and get it done like a guy again.

thrift stores are amazing for cheap dresses and jeans, try to avoid short shorts if at all possible, no one deserves that, even if you are trying to look the part. if you want go without tights, but if you want that layer for comfort go sheer or "nude" for a color. or you could try fishnets.

hope everything goes well, good luck. ps...i wish you were mine, i would love a guy to do this for me.

Answer 9

>> She has also convinced most of my other friends not to help me as most of them are girls ...

Certainly there are some girls you know who would be able to help you. Most girls would jump at the chance to do this to a guy. Have them take you to a second hand store to buy the clothes, and have them do your hair and makeup.

Answer 10

go to goodwill or the salvation army.
you can find lots of things there.
you can always use tape and pins to get things to fit better
i say get a realllly fluffy prom dress- cut it short- wear fishnets and high heels (thicker heels so you don't fall)
have a friend do your make up- over the top
get a wig from a party store.

Answer 11

Boys not at all make a gamble with the all-effective women! anyhow, probaby: pink Lipstick Blonde Wig pink/Black/pink Mini gown pink extreme Heels/ Black extreme Heels/ pink extreme Heels Lol, Have a happy Halloween! ( desire You found out to not Make Bets With a woman! Yea, we are Harsh! ^_^ )
