Coffee House Friday
It’s November 1st – All Saint’s Day
(where has the year gone – no really? Where?)
As we prep for Fall, Thanksgiving, Black Friday and into the Christmas season…
Let’s look back at Halloween…
What’s your favorite Costume? Did you see a cool on this year?
Do you dress up?
My grandson (just 1) in a pumpkin outfit!!!
Sounds cute. My grandson [7 months] as R2D2 complete with lightsaber
I saw a little girl dressed as a devil princess
My one great-niece dressed as batgirl.
I dressed as Lumiere from the Anime Kiddy Grade for Trivia on Wednesday. And Halloween I spent from 4am til 8am tailoring my mother’s prom dress from the 1970’s. So I could wear it for a costume. It is rather more in the style of a medieval dress being sky blue with an empress waistline and all trimmed in gold at the collar, waist, and at the seam on the bottom that is then followed by a ruffle. It is also accompanied by a dark velvet cloak trimmed in the same gold as the dress. I’m still not happy with the tailoring but it was wearable, I just couldn’t walk in it. My mother has probably a foot of height on me, so although I got the dress tight enough I wasn’t able to take the hem line up enough for movement. Hence after a few hours I ended up in an oversized black Halloween sweatshirt with white leggings, purple fuzzy socks, and black heels. I’m hopeful that I can take the dress up for a costume party tomorrow. But I might just end up going as a porcelain doll instead.
I remember one year in the 1980’s I dressed up as a witch. My face was painted green and I had fake green nails, black hat and dress. It was fun that year.
