Playing Dress Up

Once a month at work, we have a "Teen Night" where we're open from 1-6pm only and we try to make it fun with decorations and cupcakes, drinks, etc. Also, we dress up. A few months ago we had 70's Day, before that was 80's Day, and there was a Pirate Day somewhere in there. Although I am very proud of the outfits I came up with......I can't believe I'm about to show everyone.

Yes, that's a bell-bottomed denim jumpsuit.
Leg warmers made out of t-shirt sleeves.
Aaarrrrgggg! Did I scare you with my foam Lego brand sword?

Thursday at work, we had a Hollywood Day, I guess you could call it. We were supposed to dress up as a movie star. They were originally calling it "Red Carpet Day", but when we opted NOT to roll out the fake red carpet we had for fear of people slipping on it all day, it was changed to Hollywood Day. Dr. McLaughlin was Rambo, there was a J-Lo, Ellen DeGeneres (spell?), Dr. Izzy Stevens (Grey's Anatomy), Catwoman, and Elle Woods (Legally Blonde).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This will be a game for those who don't know what I dressed up as on this particular day. Whoever guesses my character correctly first...... ummmmmm........... I'll send you some candy in the mail. I'm talking like a few sweet-tart packets or something, nothing big. But you'll have the title of "WINNER" for this contest. So here you go:

What movie star did I attempt to imitate here?

I am guessing Lindsey Lohan. All your costumes are great by the way. Where do you come up with those outfits...

Nope, sorry Jenny. Lindsey Lohan is not correct. My very expensive looking costumes come..... half from my closet, half from Savers. Sometimes ALL from Savers.

kemptons said...

Okay, second guess... Hillary Duff or Hillary Duffs sister. Eventually I will guess it. Any Clues...

The Gardner Gang said...

Wow Jenny, you really want the candy, don't you? Just kidding. Okay, one clue is....... her hair is usually blonde. Don't feel like a failure. Once you find out who it is, you'll say, "Oh yeah." But a lot of cool, stylin' people dress this way, I guess.

Hey Carolyn! I was excited to discover you! Now we can pretend we're neighbors again!

Plus, that is too general an outfit for me to guess... But I'll go with Britney.... Unless it's Nichole Richie....or someone else...

kemptons said...

Jessica Simpson??? I guess we are figuring out that you are really stylish...

The Gardner Gang said...

Nope, not Jessica Simpson, and not Britney Spears either.

Hello Caroline by the way. Your blog opened me up to a lot of people I've been wondering about. Like the Reynolds -- I've had a book of theirs for about 2 1/2 years. Now I can find out where they're living and send it back.

Jen said...

Hello Carolyn! I love the blogging world! Keep the book no worries! besides we are done w/ kids so I would just have to give it to somebody else anyway! I love all your costumes, I always suck at those games but for your celebrity I am gonna go w/ jennifer aniston.

The Gardner Gang said...

Oooooo! Good guess. I could be her as well. That's actually the only celebrity I've ever been told I look like, but some of the girls at work convinced me to go as this other person...... which, I guess, isn't very obvious.

Danielle said...

Reese Witherspoon? Kate Hudson? Defintely Kate Hudson. Or maybe Madonna. But I think Kate Hudson.

Your costumes rock, by the way!

Caroline C. Bingham said...

so, are you going to tell us already? Because I'm guessing we're all guessed out.

Jen said...

kate hudson is a good guess, danielle! i don't know why i didn't think of her, I so think that you are being her! okay so this is a really good way to get people to revisit your blog frequently! way to up your traffic!!
tell us!

The Gardner Gang said...

Well, I guess I don't have to send anyone candy then. You all lose!!! Just kidding. I was supposed to be Cameron Diaz. The reason I did the 'booty shot' was because of her little underwear booty dance she did in Charlie's Angels. So there you go, you can all sleep at night now.

Jen said...

i should sleep SO well tonight! I didn't see charlie's angels so that can be my excuse.
