Shiny Leggings

I have shiny latex looking leggings (black) that I found at Target for $12.99. I was PSYCHED to find these, because the ones at Expressess were around 30-40 dollars.

Tonight is halloween. the party I'm going to is a halloween party, but nobody is dressing up (what the hell is up with that??) AND it's BYOP...bring your own pumpkin to carve. huh? why are we carving pumpkins on halloween??? In my humble opinion, the BYOP party should have been last weekend and the halloween party WITH COSTUMES should have been tonight. (although I am super excited about tonight anyways!)

so I am insisting on wearing something that's different, but not a costume. I think I'm going ot wear my shiny leggings, my skull & crossbone "diamond" studs, and possibly a black wig (only if I can get my makeup to look good...dark dark eyes, possibly with fake eyelashes).

The problem is the shirt. What to wear with leggings? One classmate wears leggings all the time with cute shorter tops (tops that end at her hip bone/above her butt). she looks adorable in them. I feel if I wear a shorter top, people will be looking at me.

Although let's face it...that's kind of what I'm going for (isn't that why we get dressed and wear what we do? we can wear jeans and t-shirt and blend in, or have fun with sylish and edgy outfits and express ourselves (cue Madonna). I'm always much more energetic when I'm wearing something fun that I love)...back to problem:

I don't want to people to think I look slutty (When I first showed the husband the leggings (the express pair), he said that if I wore those people would think I worked on the corner). I'm going to run to Kohls now to see if I can find some sort of knit long shirt that ends below my butt. My dresss are all dark and I want something lighter color to offset the leggings. tell me what you think...I love it and would wear it in a heartbeat, but the whole working on a corner comment....please please please give an honest opinion....
