Sucker Punch

I know this is so asian of me to like, but I just saw the movie Sucker Punch and totally have a girl crush on the main character Baby Doll (played by Emily Browning).  She's oh-so-blonde but dressed up in a slightly skimpy Japanese schoolgirl uniform pretty much throughout the entire movie (except when she's wearing the occasional dress/pajama set).  I like the contradiction of a caucasian girl dressed in a sort of trendy Japanese strict high school outfit made sexy by the lowered hems and cropped tops.  She's also put in several video game themed real-life action sequences, adorned with a samurai sword and a gun, complete with several dangly-charm thingies that girls like to attach to their phones and bags.  She's unbearably cute and sympathetically innocent throughout the movie, while seen as a deadly warrior against her enemies.  I loved the outfits but wasn't able to find my favorite outfit, the finale schoolgirl outfit, embellished with sparkling jewels and silky fabric.  I think I've found this year's Halloween costume!
