This week I grabbed my buddy Amber (My Closet feature several weeks ago) and went searching for a good Halloween costume. Her lovely boyfriend Nick tagged along as well. As we all know, I love dresses. I was also interested in what dresses were out there in regards to Halloween costumes. Amber is the queen of all things costume, so I knew she’d be down for an adventure. We ended up at Party City and had a little photoshoot.
3. What I’m NOT being for Halloween
Our first stop when we entered the store was the sale bin. It did not disappoint. I found a Snooki costume. For those who may be living under a rock, Snooki is a character in Jersey Shore, an MTV reality show about some … less than classy individuals who live in Jersey Shore for the summer for the sole purpose of partying. Snooki somewhat recently, at some point, had a baby. I’m not sure when because I couldn’t care less about the show. So I thought I’d try to look pregnant in this photo. This whole ensemble is just … classy. Also, she apparently had some small dog? The great thing about a photo shoot at a party store is props! We had so many fun props to work with!
2. Your basic witch
I think I’m going to be a basic witch for Halloween this year. You know … kale spells, talking about what magic I get
excited about in the fall when the leaves change, complaining about how I my yoga instructor makes me leave my broom at the door and the struggles of which black dress goes best with my Ugg boots. Oh and lots of Instagram selfies. Luckily, if you too want to be a basic witch for Halloween, Party City has you covered at an affordable price! I almost bought this, but then remembered that I have a great dress at home for such a costume. The dress on the right was only $15 or less, I believe. Not bad. The dress on the left was a bit more, but one I was a big fan of. The hat was just a bit more, but well worth it.
1. What I went Gaga over
The other treasure I found in the sale bin was my lovely Lady Gaga costume. This was only $10! I am just so very excited about this. I will probably find a blonde wig to go with this. Lady Gaga will for sure be a fun costume to wear. It’s nothing too crazy and will be pretty easy to wear.
So this Halloween, it looks like I’ll be Lady Gaga!
