Next Track on the Beatles Halloween Costume Playlist...

'Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds':


























This one's a given. Not much thought put into it really... but definitely fun to make. (Just so we're clear, those raindrops and 'Lucy' letters are both diamonds.)

It was so easy: I basically just glued everything on. I WAS going to stitch it all, but didn't.

I also got a new haircut. It hasn't been THIS short since high school. So now every time I look at myself in the mirror, I think about Gap overalls, learning how to drive in an Astro Van, and "Oops I Did It Again".

Man, I wish I was cooler in high school.

  1. Oh man the overalls...I have a picture where we went bowling with your family and you and I have matching haircuts, matching red shirts, and matching overalls.

    We. Look. Awesome.

    And speaking of awesome, I MUST know where that dress is from! I love what you did with it for your costume (seriously, is there no limit to how clever and creative you are?! IS THERE NO LIMIT?!!!!) but I want to marry that dress. For reals.

  2. HOLLY - I've only had about 5 of 6 a m a z i n g thrift stores buys in my lifetime, and this dress was one of them. I had some serious doubts about glueing cheesy jewels and clouds on it. I did it anyway (can't find a new blue dress in this fall season of ours.) BUT the dress is made by SHADE clothing. I looked on their website and they actually have some decent clothing.
    P.S. I have plenty of inspiration with my creativity, including...uh...um... oh YYYYOOOOOUUUUU!!!!!!! I'm waiting on the edge of my seat for your Star Wars getup.
