Tropical Depression Costume Idea

I said I wasn't sure what I am going to be for Halloween, but that I did have some ideas in mind. Well, just yesterday I decided what I am doing after seeing the photo below from this blog:


Witch, Emo Roker, Tommy Lee, Mad Scientist and yours truly dressed as a Tropical Depression (That's a bottle of Prozac I have in my hand).


I Googled "Prozac costume" to see what would result from the search and this was one of the things that came up. The girl on the right is, as the caption says, a tropical depression. I then decided to steal this idea.  

As far as I can see, there are no pre-made costumes with this name. And if there were any, they would  be of the "sexy" variety, since that seems to be mandatory  for women's costumes these days. I can't imagine what this one would look like.  I try my best to avoid this trend. And I have yet to be mocked for dressing modestly. Have this really happened to any of you women out there?

And today at Goodwill I found everything I want to use for my getup. Will tell more on this later.

    Not only womens' costumes but also those for children (of the female variety) seem to need to be sexy. Which gives me a severe case of the irrits.
    Looking forward to learning more about your costume.

      I've noticed that about the girls costumes as well, even though I don't have kids. I can't imagine what I go through with costumes if that were true.

      No children here either, which doesn't stop me noticing and resenting the too early sexualisation of the girls.
