Sugar Skulls

I've only worn this skull-print dress once before.  I chose it for my birthday when I turned 30 last year.  Today it took its proper place in my pre-Halloween wardrobe.

 

Dress, Target; tights, Target; shoes, swapped, earrings, Claire's; tights, Target.

 

This is my first attempt at sort of studio lighting.  I picked up a set of cheap umbrella lights on an Amazon Lightning Deal.  The lights certainly help in this normally dark room.

The Great Pumpkin

Hey.  Long time no see.  Ok, I still don't see you, but you see me!  Creepy.  Like Halloween.  Which inspired this great pumpkin outfit.

 

Peplum top, ebay; pleather skirt, Target; tights, Target; shoes, Younkers; earrings, Claire's; glasses, Costco.

 

There have been a number of changes in my life in the past weeks, including the addition of a new puppy, Widget.  My buddy and frequent photo-bomber, Gadget, passed away unexpectedly.  I'll memorialize him here sometime soon because that's what I do.  In the meantime, welcome Widget.  He is already filling Gadget's role as photo-bomber.

 

I have another Halloween-inspired outfit for tomorrow, and I'm still figuring out my costume for Friday.  I'll be back before you can say "boo."
