We had a lot of fun rocking this look because Jon and Kate are the embodiment of everything we're against: greed...adultery...child exploitation...bad taste...
For Kate's costume I used:
--the stripey, spiky, blond wig with cartoonishly long bangs (we later found out that this wig can be worn backwards as a true mullet. Next year: Joe Dirt!)
--hot pink flouncy sleeved top from Old Navy
--long, dangly hoop earrings
--heavy makeup...including frequent reapplications of lip gloss
--white framed plastic sunglasses from Walmart
--rhinestone-studded jeans
I had a lot more fun with Q's outfit. To recreate Jon's look, I douched him up but good!
Jon's costume consisted of:
--T-shirt with skulls, flames, and other garish crap on it (I found this in a clearance rack at TJ Maxx...Ed Hardy was just too expensive for a shirt he would only wear once).
--Black ballcap worn backwards
--Dark glasses
--3/8" rhinestones glued to his ears
--Jeans with strategically-placed rips and bleach spots
--Three days of stubble growth
--Thick stack of fake $20 bills hanging out of his back pockets
--Padding under his shirt to recreate Jon's big belly.

LOL! LOVE IT! :)
I love that he would only wear the Ed Hardy shirt once...that's the mark of a man with taste.
Thank you! I had fun putting these outfits together. All the store-bought costumes looked too chintzy.
Christopher, I couldn't believe how expensive those Ed Hardy shirts are. I saw them in TJ Maxx for $30 and thought that was high. Then the other day, I was in Macy's and saw them for $70. Yikes! That's a lot of money for a whole lot of ugly!
Good job! I haven't dressed up in forever!
