Meme from Sarahbellem

(wow, two postings from me in one day, I'm shocked.)

A lovely costume meme from sarahbellem.

Costumers all tend to have a specific era or genre that appeals to us aesthetically, which is fine, but sometimes we get too focused and fail to appreciate other eras or genres that might suit our body type, our facial features, or even just challenge us to think outside the box a little bit. So, I'm opening the floor for suggestions: Give me one costume you'd want me to wear, and why. Picture links appreciated. :)

And then spread this meme like SARS and I'll try to do the same for you!

I don't know why but I'm thinking 19teens. Something with a hobble skirt and a humongous hat.

Something like this:

Nice! I do love the huge hats. I've had 19-teens on my idea list for so long, too, and haven't gotten around to it.

I'll the 19teens idea, and raise you a great big Tudor.

Oh my.

I'm not sure if I could stand to have such debilitating sleeves! Very pretty, though.
