5 Halloween Costume Ideas for 2014

Hey guys! Today, I am going to talk about 5 different costume ideas that will most certainly be a hit this trick or treat season.

1. Elsa
I really do not need to explain much here.  This costume can be perfect for all ages. Since the movie has come out, everything has been Frozen Frozen Frozen. So why not be Frozen for Halloween. This costume is most certainly purchasable  in any Halloween shop or local store with a Halloween section. If you do not want to spend any money on it, you could also just wear a blue skirt/top or dress and pair it with a side braid and everyone will still know who you are.

2. Mean Girls
Here is a classic. Here is also a more adult costume and I would not recommend going with this one if you are not at least in Middle School yet. If you are looking for inspiration for this look, take a watch at my video with a few different Halloween costume ideas: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVceUNMGPsg&list=UU6xDZQKKKcwU8avgdNid0dg

3. Little Red
Speaking of classics, you can not go wrong with little red riding hood. This costume is, again perfect for all ages, and a great one for DIY. The first thing you are going to need is a checkered dress. If you can not find one, I would recommend going with blue or black. Next, take a trip to the fabric store and pick up any red fabric. I would recommend purchasing three years so that you can measure out how much you need for the train and how much you need for the hood. Once you have determined how much you need for the train, take the remaining fabric and cut a semi circle out and sew it to the back for the hood. Then just grab a basket which is perfect for trick or treat candy!

4. Pretty Little Liars
Honestly, if you watch PLL, you are prob old enough do dress like a PLL character. PLL dresses its actors pretty appropriately (unless its a love scene) so if your a bit younger, I would just advise not taking inspiration from the love scenes but you can totally still dress as someone from PLL. This costume idea is really like multiple costume ideas in one. I actually did this one last year paring black leggings and black gloves with a red rain jacket and creating "Red Coat". Obviously, you could be any of the five PLL girls this Halloween season. Each of them has their own distinct style, so you can basically just choose the girl/style that you like best  and create the costume right out of your closet.You could also decide to do "Red Coat" like I did, or more relevant, you could be RIP Mona by messing up your hair, adding a touch of red stage makeup for blood on your face, and putting on a dark green shall over a cute pastel outfit (blood stained of course).

5. Katniss Everdine
This look is a bit well done, however, it is still one of my favorites and is pretty relevant this Halloween season as Mockingjay part 1 comes out a little under a month after Halloween. Katniss can be well portrayed by wearing dark cargo pants, a black top, an army style jacket, combat boots and a side braid. Simple and easy, supper cute, and everyone will know who you are.

Okay, that is it for my 5 Halloween Costume ideas.

Project Runway 10-15-15 Recap Review

Previously on Project Runway: The designers gave members of the Project Runway crew a makeover. Hey guys! Welcome to this week's Project Runway Recap Review! We are getting closer and closer to fashion week each episode and the competition is getting tight. At this point, any of the designers could go home. Last week was packed with drama...but...its a new week, and a fresh slate, so lets get started. Challenge: The five remaining designers will make an outfit inspired by the New York City bridges (Queensborough, Brooklyn, Manhattan). The designers were assigned a bridge from the black bag of doom. Each designer created a textile with a 3-D printer that they had to incorporate into their garment. This is an Avant Garde challenge. Thoughts In The Workroom:  I'm not so sure what I think about 3-D printers...comment down below and let me know what you think about them (in general, not just in fashion). Candice made a good choice not using black again this week. Designers wh...

Is The Rhode Peptide Lip Treatment Worth the Hype?

 Hey Fashionista's! Today we are going to talk all about Hailey Bieber's Rhode Skincare line. This is not sponsored, I just really wanted to talk about these products. This semester in my public speaking class, I taught a unit all about persuasive speaking. My goal was to make the topic of persuasive speaking more relatable by showing how prevalent it is in our modern world. What was the product I brought in to show the power of persuasive speaking in the "influencer era"? You bet it was the Rhode Peptide Lip Treatment. If you are a longtime reader, you know I rarely talk about skin care. Actually, I have probably never talked about skin care. That's because I don't really know what to say. I don't ever buy the trendy products because I am allergic to so many of them and if not, they make me break out. BUT Hailey Bieber got me- talk about effective persuasive speaking. I watched a few videos on YouTube of her using the products and talking about their ing...

Best Sustainable Brands of 2023

 Hey Fashionistas! Recently, I have been trying to make better fashion/beauty choices for the environment so I thought I would share some of my favorites with you. None of this is sponsored (although, if you're one of the brands I mentioned- hi and please feel free to reach out). Garnier: I wanted to start out with Garnier because they are not only an environmentally friendly brand but they are also my favorite beauty brand of all time. Garnier is a holy grail for me. I discovered this brand when they were featured on Project Runway many years ago and they completely changed my confidence. I use so many of their products on my hair: Mouse, Curl Cream, Hair Spray, Hair Gel, Shampoo, Conditioner, Conditioning Masks, etc.  Recently, I have switched from the traditional shampoo bottle to the shampoo bar and I am so glad that I did. I still get that Garnier glow to my hair while using less unnecessary plastics. Other Garner Fructis shampoo and conditioner bottles are made partly fr...
