Calling All Halloweenies!

As I’ve shared here many, many times, I am a Halloween junkie. Or a Halloweenie, as I like to refer to myself. And, as I pack for my trip to Dallas and put the finishing touches on my conference paper, I'm reflecting on Halloweens past.

















This year I will be celebrating late due to a scheduling conflict but I am eagerly awaiting my late-Halloween/Guy Fawke’s Day party on November and turning my mind to thoughts of decorative items. Like these gems from etsy.


Love this raven pillow





What are your big Halloween plans this year?

wow, you defintiely commit to the makeup -- i feel like that is often the most important part of a costume, and the part i never seem to get quite right.

hope you have another fun Halloween!

Your Halloween make up looks so amazing every year! I am looking forward to see what you're doing this year....

Because of a scheduling conflict (will be in Ft. Worth until Sunday) I won't be running the Halloween 5K that I normally would on Saturday. I don't think I'll have time for a costume this year, but I'll wear an orange skirt on the 31st to be a bit festive.

Thank you for making me laugh at "Halloweenie" before being subjected to loads of scary photos. ;)

You really get into it don't you?! That first pic is frightening! I wish I put as much effort into my Halloween costume as you do!

Jennifer Fabulous said...

Ummm I want to spend Halloween with YOU this year! Lol. You do it the right way. :)

I'm not dressing up this year. I have no parties to attend. It's so sad. My bf and I are going to have a scary movie night and then another night go haunted housing. So that should be fun!

I hope you are having a great Monday. xoxo

You rule. Seriously.

Last year I went all out and had 3 costumes - Lucy from Charlie Brown, Nancy Drew, and then Pamela Des Barres. I wanted to be Old Gregg but it was a bit TOO complicated. One year..

I love Halloween people!! Your costumes are awesome, amazing make-up, I'd party with you anyday. Just keep that freakin' clown away from me. *shudder*
Tomorrow night is Rocky Horror, then on Saturday I rekindle the magic of my childhood and step out as Jem. I can't wait!
Happy Halloween!
