Shoes: Gogo-300, by Pleaser USA


sugg. retail $45

1960s go-go girl? This boot is perfect in white and stunning in every other color. 1970s glam rocker or B-movie space hero? Try the metallics. Batgirl? Shiny black. Daphne from Scooby-Doo? Baby Pink. Sexy firefighter? What else but fire engine red?

The color versatility of this costume boot means it can go just about everywhere.

Pleaser's gogo-300 has a 3' stack heel and a side zipper. It comes in shiny stretch patent and matte stretch PU, and women's whole sizes from 6-15 (gentlemen, add 2 to your men's shoe size for a rough approximation). It also comes in a wide calf option for those in need of it, but the color palette is limited to basic black and white.

Wig: Gina, by Lacey Wigs


sugg. retail $30


Lacey's Gina is one of the most versatile wigs I've seen yet. I love her so much I've attempted to have my own hair cut and styled like this a couple of times with varying degrees of success. Her chin-length bob flatters a wide range of different face shapes, and the zig-zag part sets her apart from similar styles.

Gina's best feature, though, is her color versatility. She comes in 25 different shades, from traditional startling shades of neon. In blonde, brunette or redhead, she's the perfect 1920s flapper or 1960s mod girl. In bright colors, she's a B-movie space babe. Snow white makes her a great Christmas elf or Snow Queen, and in right emerald green, she's ready to help you look fabulous for a St. Patrick's Day party.

Lacey Costume Wigs are made of Kanekalon or Toyokalon fibers, are both washable and stylable and are of rental quality.
