First of all, I love Halloween. Actually, after Christmas, I'm pretty sure that it's my favorite holiday. Who doesn't love fall leaves, the smell, FREE candy, to be able to dress up and make a fool of yourself, pumpkins, fall colors, scary movies, and pumpkin flavored - well - everything? Personally I can't get enough of it.
So this year me and the roommies
decided that we should all dress up as different decades in time. It took us a while to finally decide on what to do cause we all wanted to have some sort of theme, but I think we ended up with a pretty good idea. I'm going to be the 60s. I found this awesome dress at the DI (my favorite Halloween costume store) and I'll do my hair in some sort of 60s style. I've been trying to find some pictures on google of what women from the 60s actually looked like, but I don't know how much I can trust the pictures I found. They look like random weirdos that dressed up and decided to call themselves 60s girls. So I'm kind of basing my costume off of the movie Hairspray instead. I figure that's about as close to the style they wore back then as I can get cause somebody else researched the clothing back then... not me :) bonus! This is a picture of a dress similar to mine. Though mine is yellow with pink flowers on it and my body is definitely not shaped like that mannequin. But overall that's the general shape of it.
I don't know if I'll be able to do it but I really want to do my hair like this. My hair is just about this length, maybe a little bit longer. But I think that if I can play with it a bit I can get it to do the little swooshy thing that this girl has going on.
Ever since 7th grade it's been my tradition to have a friend Halloween party. Last year since I came up here to Utah State and pretty much all of the friends that usually come to the parties were still at home I almost didn't have it. Luckily I did and surprisingly a lot of my home friends came up to Logan to come to it. So this year I'm having another one (I think I'll pretty much have a Halloween party till I'm old and lazy... which may be pretty soon). I'm super excited but now I have to get everything ready and it's kinda stressing me out. Top all that off with school and I'm kinda going crazy inside right now. Well, wish me luck! I'll post some pictures of the party and all of our costumes soon!
Well if I don't blog before then, HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
totally stoked to see your costume girl!
