I Am Ginger

White gown, thrifted.

I was invited to the Tri-County Player’s annual winter party. We were directed to dress as our favorite “character.” I wasn’t sure whether the character should be from a book, movie, television, or theater, but I figured I covered at least the last three by dressing as Ginger from Gilligan’s Island (because the series not only spawned a movie, but also a musical!) This costume was really easy. All I needed was a gown ($4) and fake eyelashes ($3). Amazingly, despite drinking red wine and eating chocolate cheesecake, I didn’t spill a single thing on my white dress.
