Halloween

I came up with my Halloween costume on Tuesday night, just a few days from Halloween. I've gone through about 10 different costume ideas but since I had no concrete party plans I never followed them through. I still didn't have any plans, but I got so excited about it didn't matter. I've been watching Gilmore Girls this month since it came out on Netflix. I realized dressing up as Rory in her Chilton uniform would be perfect.

Step one was finding the skirt. I looked at nearly every clothing website I could think of. I finally found the perfect one at Lands End and quickly ordered it with rush shipping. I got the supplies to make saddle shoes based off of this tutorial and also made the necktie out of navy ribbon and a button. I had the shirt and blazer so with some knee high socks from Target and straightened hair, I channeled my inner Rory.







Happy Halloween! (It was 72 degrees on Friday and now it's 32 and I'm wearing a coat indoors and I'm not ready for this. )
Welcome November!
