Part of Your World

Look at this stuff. Isn't it neat?

 Fun fact: forks are surprisingly good at brushing wigs. I think Ariel was onto something there. 

The picture above is the only proper picture I have of me in my Ariel costume because I didn't put the wig on my hair until I got to my friend's apartment last night. I thought about wearing the wig at work today as well, but in bright lights it looks hot pink which doesn't have quite the same effect.

Wig aside, I quite enjoyed my costume. It's obviously not a very literal translation but it was still quite a bit of fun.

It's always so fun seeing everyone's costumes! There were some good Disney ones last night, which made me happy. My friend made a glorious magic carpet. And we always have some good costumes at work as well (both human and canine). Luckily for my pup, I wasn't feeling any of the costumes I saw at Target so she just rewore her pumpkin shirt. 

I'm not huge on candy, so my favorite part of Halloween is by far seeing everyone's costumes. That, and rewatching Hocus Pocus. That was definitely on my schedule for tonight.

It was so fun walking home from the bus after work and seeing someone with full-on facepaint casually reading in a coffee shop. I felt like I was in Halloweentown and it made me so happy. 

Did you know that the town they filmed the movies in transforms back into every October so you can visit the real Halloweentown? It's in Oregon, a little outside of Portland. I haven't been yet, but I would love to visit one year. It would be so fun!

Wig: Amazon. Bralette: Amazon (looks like purple is no longer available). Skirt: Amazon. T-Shirt: Target. Shoes: Payless (old). Leggings (not pictured): Amazon.

I wore the outfit in this last picture for most of the day at work, since a bralette is not typically a work-appropriate shirt. And I would freeze. To help with that last part, I also ended up changing into leggings made of the same material a little after lunch. I originally bought them to wear for my main costume, but decided I would feel more comfortable in a skirt. I never returned them, so I kept ahold of them and they came in handy today. Plus it's fun having mermaid leggings.

Hope you all had a fun Halloween!
