I made out costumes run-able, so we both started with our running circle skirts and tank tops. Then, of course, I had to make everything princess-like.
I have to say I'm really proud of Kris's Snow White top. My first addition was the pouf-y sleeves. I made the red parts of the sleeves and attached them first, then attached the sleeves to the top. I was kinda shocked that it worked on the first try. Then I added a gold strip down the front and, you can't see it too well, but there was a white collar and a red cape. Now, I know Edna Mode has issues with capes, but Kris told me she needed one, and I was happy to ablige.
Add the red headband and she was one cute Snow White.
Then came my Cinderella outfit. This, I have to say was a total winging-it type situation, which if you know me is my nightmare. I somehow managed to make the skirt overlays and then attach the sleeves to the tank too, after 3 tries. Now I have to admit that this didn't look like anything as crazy good as Kris's outfit when I was done, but it was late and the race was almost here, so I figured it would work.
Now this costume really came together with the accessories. I added a headband, a black velvet choker and the crowning touch was a sock bun. I just added some big ball earrings and I really started to feel like Cinderella.
I gotta admit that making the costumes is half the fun of these races. And I just love making the costumes for me and Kris. We have tons more costume ideas, so I guess that means we have to keep doing these RunDisney races. And the other part of the fun is running with my best friend! Can't beat that.
Best costume ever ... best friend ever ... best time ever! Can't wait for the next one!!! :)
