Heya,

Soon I am going to a fancy dress day-thing in December (all drunk day at college basically haha) and I think I am going to go as a scarecrow.

Basically, I need help with the outfit.
- Dungerees - Does anyone know where I can buy a smallish pair from? I need them really bad! If not, how can I make them easily?
- Straw Hat - They have none in the stores now, so does anyone know where I can get one from?
- Stuff in general - any tips on how to look extra scarecrowish?

Stuff straw in random places (:whistle:).

Its not a halloween party, fancy dress can be a good thing. You're just assuming I mean it in a bad way :tongue:

Mess up your hair so that you look ... erm... wind beaten? lol

Make a fake black bird (crow) and sit it on your shoulder! And then as the day carries on.. just throw it at people.

Checked shirt is always good too :thumbs:

Checked Shirt (Possibly Red?)
Jeans
Braces
Straw Hat
Like stuff some straw in places around your body that are on show. :P

Should I wear skinny jeans rather than baggy jeans?

Adults Unisex Ruff Edge Cowboy with Elastic.

The "ruff" edge looks very scarecrow-y.

Edit: Also, baggy jeans will suit the look more.
