Halloween is my favorite holiday of the year! I love making my own costumes and experimenting with makeup. It's really the only time of year that you can load on everything you've been fantasizing to wear and no one can say anything! Can Halloween be everyday? Or at least bi-yearly? I just don't think one weekend is enough time to put all of my dreamy costume urges into fruition.
This year for Halloween, I was a swirly lollipop and a tribal totem pole. Oh, and for my birthday at the end of the summer, I organized a costume dinner party-- Texas BBQ style! That See by Chloe skirt is my best vintage find to date! I think I decided on a Cowboy-inspired birthday just for another excuse to wear the skirt ;)
