Yikes! Halloween is just around the corner and I am not sure what I am going to dress up as this year. We really wanted to do a group costume at work but it proved to be pretty expensive and not everyone really wanted to invest, which is totally fine and makes sense. Yesterday I was helping a friend find a formal outfit for an event out of my closet and I ran across a black dress with pearls and thought I just might try to pull together a Audrey Hepburn, Breakfast at Tiffany's Costume idea. Stay tuned and watch my IG for whatever I come up with. Below is my inspiration by The Literary Lifestyle.
I love dressing up and although we don't ever end up going to any Halloween parties or anything, I am thankful that each year that I am expected to dress up for school. The bad news is I don't often take pictures but below are some of Haloweens past. My very favorite costume of all time is 2017 when Anya and I went as a duo of Maleficent and Mal from the Descendants movies. In hindsight I really wish we had done more family themed costumes when the girls were young but at the same time, we always let them choose what they wanted to be. Another favorite costume that I've had is dressing up as Bell last year, all the PreK kids absolutely loved it and it was fun to add to the magic of the day. I lent it out to my sister for this Halloween. Anyway, you will find me having a full on Halloween day at my school with my littles, and then handing out candy and maybe hosting some of the kids friends as they come and go from trick or treating.

Do you dress up? If so, what are you planning to dress up as this year? What does Halloween look like for you?
I love your costumes, especially the Maleficent. I can't wait to see your look this year.

You are adorable!! What fun you guys have at Halloween. I am not used to seeing you without your warm, friendly smile so I had to do a double take at your first costume photos. You certainly got into character as Maleficent. Ha!! The cat woman is precious and so easy to put together. Love costumes that you create yourself. I know whatever you come up with this year, you will be super cute.
ReplyDeleteHahahaha. True story. It was a really fun personality to try out for a day.
DeleteI haven't dressed up in years, but I would if I had somewhere to wear it to! Ohh, I love these flashback photos. I used to love dressing up my kids in coordinating costumes! If you do an Audrey Hepburn, Breakfast at Tiffany's costume, you have to share it on here or IG Stories! So fun!

Thank you.
DeleteWhat a fun look back! I never dressed up for Halloween with my kids and we too let them pick whatever they wanted; themed costumes would not have gone over well.
ReplyDeleteIt's good to know your kids and what they are willing to do and not. LOL!
DeleteThese are great costumes and it’s always nice to look back through the years. I am lucky that my little guy wants to dress up with me. It really makes for priceless memories. I’ll cry on the inside once he doesn’t want to anymore.

I love all the costumes you and your little man have done! They truly will be gems to look back on.
DeleteThese are such fun costumes and cute photos with your kids! We don't really celebrate or dress up for Halloween here but it's always fun seeing the costumes people come up with when they do celebrate Halloween :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining the Weekday Wear Link up. Hope you are having a lovely weekend. It's a very rainy day here!

Interesting. I am wondering is it a thing in Australia or not really? When we came to Canada in '92, it was a brand new holiday for us to learn about.
