Dress rehearsal for Halloween tonight.
I like this one because you can see the important accoutrements - Sting, leaf pin, Ring, pointy ear (eeee, I *heart* my prosthetic pointy ears)...
But this one has better lighting, and you can see the hobbit trousers. (Brown velvet capri pants; just what everyone needs!) And how 'bout them flipflops? How's that for authenticity?
I do plan to stick hair (wig cuttings) to my feet with spirit gum, but didn't bother doing so tonight. I figured I looked sexeh enough as it was.
Yeah, okay, some women would have been Eowyn or Galadriel or something. But you knew I was a geek long ago. Besides, I just wanted to carry the Ring. Don't we all? Preccccioussss?

Too bad you live nowhere near me. I'd give you some good candy for that costume ;)
Heheh! Your icon is too funny. Love those cute dorks.
But as for YOU, my lovely, you look amazing. Will we get to see a picture of you with your feet all furred? ^_^
Had to borrow Sting and the Ring from my nephew, though. :) I'm very tempted to buy a Ring for my own jewelry collection - and Sting with a scabbard sounds quite droolworthy!
Hehe...I doubt my hair-covered feet will be all that attractive, but I'll try to get a picture.
What will you be doing for Halloween? Or is this just for wearing about the house...? ;)
Then the rest of the year, I'll just wear it around the house. ;)
Yeah, it's probably more like obsession than narcissism. :)
Despite my LotR fanaticism I'm actually dressing as a slutty Xena (or Callisto, technically, as the outfit's black and silver). I have to admit that I chose it mostly because I already have a leather corset and huge boots - I just had to make the kirtle (skirt) and accesories, which I only made this afternoon. Geek that I am I'm using a frisbie as a chakram. Oh, and I might strap on one of my real swords, just to defend myself against evil children bearing tricks.
In case I hadn't mentioned, hobbit suits you :)
You make an excellent Frodo, dear! Very cute!

The photo - indeed; who is that? Pretty good-looking either way.

There may be 1 decent picture of me in my own costume. If so I will post it.
He definitely has me beat on the gazing. You need those big freaky blue eyes to pull it off. I tried for a minute or two, in the mirror, to replicate the troubled/tortured/haunted look on the posters, holding up the Ring and so forth, but just couldn't capture it.
Do post! I want to see how the Elvis Costello costume turned out. :)
When I was flying Air New Zealand they had a magazine on the plane with tons of LOTR memorabilia. They had a lot of swords and an exact replica of THE RING! If I had the money I would have snatched it up.
I still want a Ring replica of my own...
