Halloween Haunt


          Happy Halloween everyone! Halloween is one of my favourite time's of the year. If you're like me and hate spending money on a new costume every year, which can be expensive, then here's a chance to get creative!

          I feel like girls feel obligated to dress really scandalous (like in Mean Girls), and let me just say there's a way of making your costume look cute and girly without looking like a total You-Know-What. This past weekend I saw a girl wearing a bra and underwear with a police hat. Like, what?... Personally, I love getting crafty and showing off my creativity instead; This year my roommates and I decided to be road signs (don't ask me why, we thought it was funny).

          To make the sign all I needed was poster board, string, paint in red and black; It only took me about 40 minutes to make my costume. The sign on my back said "speed bumps ahead", unfortunately I don't have a picture of it, I can guarantee you that it was pretty funny though. I wore my signs over a black v-neck, and leggings and wore my cute new black wedges. I also wore this mint polka-dotted headband J bought me, just for kicks. I thought it looked cute, and everyone loved our costumes. My friend Fiona (on the left) also made her costume, she was a toddler in a tiara (if you can't already tell :p). She bought the dress, which came with the pearl necklace attacked to it, for $5 and the tiara and pacifier were bought at the dollar store. So both of our costumes totalled under $10. Happy Halloween.

P.S.  J and I would love to see what you guys are dressed up as for Halloween. Tweet us a pic @FashionTMH. xx
