In case you’ve ever contemplated what costume could really spook people enough to not get you a drink at a Halloween party, look no further! What could be scarier than Amy Winehouse?

Surprisingly (or not so surprisingly, depending on how often you catch tabloid headlines) Winehouse wigs are selling like crazy on eBay, which is why you may have to use a little ingenuity in getting that perfect look this Halloween. Put down that tequila and stop smoking for a second, you wannabe, because I’m going to show you how to create the perfect Winehouse costume:

1. A black wig with a very tall beehive. Decorate with a colored bandanna or scarf or a wig with a big red flower.

2. Naturally you’re going to need some extraordinarily tacky jewelry, such as some chains around the neck or gigantic hoop earrings.

3. Don’t forget cut off jeans or a tight mini dress with a wide belt. Are you getting cold feet yet?

4. Have a friend draw some tattoos on you. One of ‘em should say ‘Blake’ and be a pocket tattoo smack dab on the chest.

5. And last, but certainly not least: eyeliner! But you knew that.

Oh, and keep drinking at those Halloween parties. You want to be believable, after all!
