I'm going to a Bleach cosplay party at my friends house soon and I can't decide which character to be! Any help? And where can I buy good Bleach costumes?
Depends on how you look like. If you're flat-chested, options are quite narrowed down to Rukia, Momo, the little girls, or one of the feminine looking boys.

I agree with above, if you dont look like someone, its hard to cosplay as them, also there are sooo many characters now, its hard to keep straight, one of the lesser known ones is probably easier to cosplay because theres gonna be like at least 10 different rukias running around and its better t be origional :D
Really, you don't HAVE to go as a character you look like. I've seen an amazing Jiraiya cosplay from a woman. It's easier to look like a character, sure, but not required.
There are tons of great sites where you can buy costumes. I've never bought one myself, but you can find a few nice ones here: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20081209000615AAyS6oU
Even if you want to dress up as Rukia, you can still add some creativity to the costume. Make it future!Rukia, and add on a lieutenants badge or even a captain's haori. Or do Rukia in her pj's, and say you're Rukia from when she was living in Ichigo's closet.
Or, if you want to go as Matsumoto without padding your bra, you can do Matsumoto from before she went to Soul Society, when she was in Rukongai with Gin. Or you can do Gin himself, which being of the opposite gender automatically gives you bonus points in creativity.
And then there are the characters who tend not to get cosplayed too often. One of the non-Arrancar Hollows (or one of the Arrancar that aren't as popular), one of the Vaizords other than Shinji or Hiyori, Tatsuki or one of the other students back in Karakura (or, for that matter, their teacher), one of the MANY shinigami that didn't get a huge part (or those that did but don't draw drooling fans)... There are a ridiculous number of characters in Bleach, so you should be able to find someone great. Good luck! :D
