Halloween: "May the Odds Be Ever In Your Favor"

Well even though my Halloween was much less than exciting, I still had a blast dressing up! Even though I had school all day, I still managed to make the most of the day! It also happened to be the SF Giants Parade and it was crazy madness in the city! I've never seen BART more crowded in my life! I got to catch the beginning of the parade before class. While I was in class, we could hear the roar of the crowd for hours!



For Halloween, I was Catniss Everdeen from The Hunger Games! I just threw together some things I already had laying around the house! I had seen MANY different "Catniss Everdeen" inspired looks like below with different greens and browns mixed into the look. I decided to wear all black. I wore my black skinny jeans, black long sleeve shirt, black Forever21 Velvet blazer, black lace up combat boots from Target with a black Jansport backpack. I got lucky and my Dad had a random life-size bow & arrow for my prop! It definitely completed my look!!! Also, I couldn't pull off the look without the well-known "Catniss Braid". I actually added my clip-in extensions for more volume and length within the braid. I used neutrals and warm tones for my makeup. My costume came out pretty great for how last minute it was! This is a great idea for someone who wants to dress up but doesn't want to spend the money on a store-bought costume! Use your resources!!!

      
 



As for my puppy Pebbles, she wasn't very found of her Halloween costume! She definitely prefers her festive themed dresses!!! Her DINO costume was very fitting of her personality though! She can be quite the devil!
