Throwbacks of Costumes Past

Thursday, October 30, 2014

In keeping with last week's nostalgia and in honor of Halloween being tomorrow, I thought I'd share some of my favorite costumes from my past! Not pictured is the very epic costume I came up with in 5th grade: a cat-witch-princess. I couldn't pick just one, so I decided to be all three at once! I'm sure it looked amazing. (Not!)

Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's: This was my costume my senior year of high school, and after Halloween my science teacher continued to call me Audrey. So I guess that means I played the role well?

Mrs. Peacock from Clue: My first Halloween at SCAD, this is what I wore. My dad even made me a noose and mailed it to me. Bad parenting? Nah, he just was happy to play with making knots.

Queen Midas: Another look from SCAD. Let me just tell you, everyone went all out for Halloween, although I guess that shouldn't come as a surprise considering it's an art college. The gold body paint I used stained my shower floor for a couple weeks after Halloween! Such a fun costume though.

1920's Flapper: This was for a sorority date function, and I already had a dress that worked as a flapper dress, so I was pretty happy about that!

Katy Perry: Rockin' that blue wig! My friend had a Katy Perry themed party, and I was at a loss on what to wear until I realized I had the perfect sequin & nude dress hanging in my closet, and all I was missing was a blue wig!

So what did I decide to dress up as this year for Halloween? Stay tuned!
