It'd probably be easier just to buy the armwarmer. The first place you should check is Hot Topic. It has a bunch of striped armwarmers in a bunch of different colors, so you should be able to find them. If Hot Topic doesn't have them, try your luck on-line or in random accessory places in an Asian community.

As for the top hat, you can go to Michael's or AC Moore and buy a small black top hat. (In the stores near me, they're usually found in the aisles where the dolls, bears, and flock bears are.) Glue some red ribbon around it, and you're set ^^

Hope this was some help. Good luck ^^
