So it's not really accepted for women to dress up in my community. I kinda toe the line, last year we did sushi and the adults were sushi chefs and the kids with related items like avocado, srircha etc.

One year I dressed up as a frum lady from a different type of frum community. I really enjoyed dressing up but I am trying to think of ideas that are dressing up but aren't super eye catching - like as clothing generally worn by some kind of a human somewhere in the world I guess.

But also would love to do a family theme.....

Ideas please!

Whenever DH and I travel, we bring back native costumes from that country. Maybe do something like that?

We do family themes and I usually join along in a subtle way.
The year we were astronauts, I got a beanie with the NASA logo on it, when we did a circus theme I wore a black ringleaders jacket.
My kids love that I go along with it, and I don’t feel so out of place in my community.
