Now that I am finally out of college, I actually have some time to enjoy the holidays! Needless to say I am extremely excited for this year’s Halloween. Our church is having an event called Light the Night for all the children to come and play carnival games and win lots of candy. Afterwards a few of our friends are getting together for a house party that should be ghoulishly fun. What I love most about Halloween is of course the amazing and creative costumes that people come up with. My friends are known for their willingness to go to great lengths for hysterical and outlandish get-ups. This weeks posts are devoted to my personal favorite and fashion forward costumes, and will end with the reveal of my own handmade outfit.
The first featured costume is inspired by the upcoming theater release of Amelia:

- Kieran Bomber Jacket $80
- Preen Trousers $450
- Aminaka Wilmont pleated Wool Pants $670
- Bandolino Castalina Riding Boots $149
- AILSA Work Boots $115
- Browns Fashion Leather Hat $1,302
- Ugg Company Shearling Hat $188
- Tom Ford Aviator Sunglasses $210
Amelia’s outfits of choice were radical for her time, but she will always remain a fashion icon for women in menswear.
