But not just for the day.
Already worn in public, and kind of stuck with it for the time being.
So what is this costume?
It is a worn out scruffy overweight aging weirdo, you know, the kind you tell the kids to stay away from, a step up from the homeless bums everyone steers clear of.
Why am I stuck? Ill-health*, no work, no money. ((I do have a roof and food.))
First off, my shaver died, using an old hair trimmer to maintain the old Miami Vice look, well it's better then just letting it grow. I do still have my long hair, but it hasn't had a proper trim in a while. I does not exactly help in combo with the beard. Clothing, worn out old stuff, hand me downs, or passed on mistakes, moslty men's or unisex. Some of the tops are women's, but relatively gender neutral, mostly tees & sweats. Also a few purchased items from family, all very inexpensive male items. I do have a reasonable amount of footwear, all women's, Mostly athletic or healed boots, I do have couple Mary Janes etc. Oh and a lot of colorful women's sock of various lengths. Most everything else I have is shot or doesn't fit.
So:
Unshaven, Improperly self trimmed long hair in a ponytail(or in a hairband or loose), women's footwear, men's pants(jeans mostly), layered(I tend to be cold) tops of either gender or both mixed. Mostly in rather worn condition. And an odd mix of layered hoodies for a coat.
I'm not happy, but I am surviving, for now.

Haircut
I let my hair grow until it's 10+ inches and get a free cut/wash by donating it, I let the salon send it in. Least my hair looks good for a bit.
