Since we haven't really done anything for Halloween this year and fancy dress is one of my all time favourite kind of parties, I thought I would post some of my past outfits and decorating efforts on here to make up for not getting dressed up or having a party this year.
These ones are from when I was a student with my friend Ashleigh...
|
Unfortunately my fangs didn't stay in but I love my bargain Vampire coat which I got for £2 in Saudi Arabia!
(Admittedly it was quite heavy pleather and think it ended up costing more after excess baggage!
It was a good shopping holiday that year!) |
The next time I went as a vampire I had a lab tech friend adjust the fangs for me so they were super comfy and stayed in all night! :)
You can tell I liked that coat a lot as I wore it again and again as it is just so perfect for Halloween! Plus that's the only time I wear it as it not exactly my usual style!
|
Doesn't Nik make a fab Captain Jack Sparrow! He really suited the eyeliner! |
|
My decorating efforts at my flat in Edinburgh |
|
Halloween spread including jelly brains and severed finger sausages. |
|
More Edinburgh decorations |
When we moved to Glasgow, the stuff was spread out a bit more so I bought a giant spider! I also discovered a love for OTT eyelashes! Here are the next few year's costumes and decorations... (I was a Witch, a Vampire again and a Halloween Fairy!)
|
Nik as a crazy doctor |
|
Already lost my hat by this point, it's a bit annoying and my coat is a bit hot! |
|
|
My spider earrings which I was going to wear today but couldn't find them :( |
|
My boss at work helped me make the bat necklace out of an old plastic container! |
|
Nik as a Ringmaster
|
|
2 very different fairies (I have a spider necklace on) |
|
My amazing wings off ebay! |
|
My puking pumpkin |
|
We let the rope go so the scary guy would land right in front of everyone when they were coming up the stairs. |
|
My Skeleton beer cooler and green Halloween Punch |
|
We set this noise activated spider up behind the bathroom door so it fell down and moved its legs whenever anyone opened the door, mwah ha haa!
(Luckily no-one had any heart problems and everyone survived the night!) |
After looking through all those old photos I so wish we had been organised enough for another party this year! I had big plans for a stencilled Pumpkin this year ala
Florence Finds too but ran out of time with all our DIY projects at the weekend! :( Maybe next year!!! :)
