Tights for $40!? I have them from the mall for $10-20. I love me the tights but they're easily scored for half that.
The boots...I bought my genuine combat boots for $10 online, $5 more for shipping. I can't justify that much money for something I wear infrequently.
Plus, there is a cutoff point on costuming for me, which is why I cut my hair. I have the money to do it sure, but ANYONE can do it. ANYONE who likes me for the hair, the gear, the costume, or being a dj in the club just likes the outfit - since ANYONE can slab it on, it's never me the actually like.
Or that's what it feels like. However, being secretly wonderful inside, even physically fit, doesn't seem to do much either. Though I have this crazy hot girl that seems to like me for some reason. She must be bonkers.
But...thank you, those are good links - but I'm just not about to spend that much. Imagine how long I could pick up pieces of metal in an abandoned factory for that kind of money - and I'd not have a gut to hide with a floppy shirt to boot!
