Since the Halloween holiday is rapidly approaching, I thought I might donate a few potential costumes ideas to all my loyal readers out there.
Britney Spears – The Ringleader

My spiritual goddess offers up many Halloween costume ideas, including the “…Baby One More Time” look to the “I’m a Slave for You” ensemble. While I know the pop princess has many, many more potential costumes, for this post I am focusing on the ringleader outfit she embodied on the Circus Tour.
Ahh…remember the Circus era…I loved seeing B. Spears dance with lions, tigers and elephants…oh my! She certainty did the job better than any ringleader I saw as a younger lady.
Britney took her inspiration from her own lyrics: “I’m a like the ringleader, I call the shots/I’m like a firecracker I make it hot/When I put on a show.”
On the “difficulty to create all by your lonesome” scale, I rate this costume a 6. The black boots, fishnets and whip should already be hanging out in your closet.
As for the sequined mini shorts, they are probably hidden in the racks at Marshall’s or your crazy aunt has a pair that she’s been wearing since the 80s. In regards to that sweet ringleader jacket…that’s gonna take a lot of fabric and a sewing needle. Good luck!
I will say this, the hardest part will be getting that lion to follow you around all evening. Make sure you have some cat treats in your purse.
Of course I have more costume advice for you…check back later and often!
