Haute Halloween

Happy Halloween witches and ghosts!

If you are unlike myself and haven't already made your outfits weeks in advance, here are a couple quick last minute options for you to create using things you already have in your closest or can grab from local stores. Below is a picture of my version of Holly Golightly that I wore on the weekend! 

For the Fashionistas 

Holly Golightly from Breakfast at Tiffanys

• Black dress, simple flats, pearl necklace, diamond earrings, tiara-like hair comb, simple make-up with a dramatic wing tip eye and a sock bun.

Daisy Buchanan from The Great Gatsby

• Flapper style silk dress, fishnet stockings, pearl necklace, pearl earrings, faux fur wrap, black Mary Jane heels, bejewelled headband worn horizontally across your forehead, hair tucked into a faux bob or curled and dramatic eye make-up.

Rachel Zoe

• Blonde wing with voluminous curls, large sunglasses, statement jewellery, faux fur coat or leopard print jacket, suit pants, blouse, tallest high heels you own, and don't forget to use phrases such as, "BANANAS," and "mah-jor!" 

Group Costumes
