Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween! I can’t believe it is the end of October and that Halloween is here! I have to confess, for the past few years I have been such a procrastinator when it comes to picking out a costume. I kid you not, in college an hour or less before I would go to a Halloween party I would stand in front of my closet, look at what was in there and think “what can I use to create a costume”. Not to toot my horn, but I actually came up with some pretty great costumes considering I only gave myself an hour or so to pull one together. One of the easiest and simplest last minute costume ideas that is my favorite is just a dress {I love dresses} and a mask. I love how a dress {preferable a sequin or black one since it’s Halloween} and mask look paired together, it creates a very eye-catching outfit for Halloween, plus you can add some fun accessories! Below are some masks I have come across, just incase you are in a pinch and need some last minute inspiration! I hope everyone has a wonderful Halloween!

  10. I love it! This year my roommate had no idea what she was doing and just bought a dress at a consignment shop. Right before a party we ended up cutting/sewing/altering it until it looked like Jane from Tarzan. Totally random, but sometimes spontaneous costumes are the most fun :)

    I LOVE your idea for a mask/dress. I am definitely going to consider that for next year :)...

    Also love the Sinatra song at the end. Nice touch ;)
