Hannahcopacabana Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 (edited) It's the work Christmas party on Wednesday night and I'm supposed to dress up as a pirate. Any ideas / tips on what to wear and where to look for it? So grateful for any ideas at all!

zaza Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Check the customs shop in front of Ladprao MRT station, on the intersection of laprao-Ratchada . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eek Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Haha fun! Dont let the side down, do sexy female pirate, not dowdy. An easy thing to do is to buy a few accessories and modify things you already have. ie: for your head you could wear a scarf and some jewels/broaches etc if you want (and buy a patch if you really want to go a step further). Get a waistcoat. Wear with a white dress or loose white blouse and tight trousers/leggings. Again, can stick some broaches/jewels etc on if you want. Or sew on some cheap necklaces etc. Big belt and buckle might look quite good too. If you dont have boots/dont want to buy boots. Just wear some heels and tie a scarf(s) around one leg, under the knee. Lots of black eyeliner! Some ideas below for inspiration, or just go to google images with keywords like "pirate lady" for ideas. Sounds like a lot of fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyHeather Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 loose, lacy white blouse with a big belt around the waist, a skirt or leggings, or even those wrap around trousers sold on khao san road, the kind where you have to get undressed to go the bathroom? I wouldn't wear an eyepatch, makes things difficult, but the heavy black eyeliner is a good idea, and a scarf tied around your head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hannahcopacabana Posted December 15, 2008 Author Share Posted December 15, 2008 Dont let the side down, do sexy female pirate, As if there was a question of anything else! That's exactly the kind of advice I was looking for. Thank you for the fantastic ideas. Just wish I could convince myself that thigh-high leather boots were a sound investment... (*wonders if she'd get away with wearing them at the office*) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
