So, once again, I'm starting with apologies, but I'm still neck deep into my studies. I'm currently studying for an entrance exam to the school I want to go to, so that's my main focus right now. So, I haven't abandoned my blog. Just a short hiatus of sorts while I focus on my schooling.
On to happier and much more fun topics!
Like, every year, Halloween is my favorite holiday and one I throw myself into with a gusto!
This year, my friends and I were too busy, collectively, to focus on a cohesive group costume. So, we all did our own thing. For myself, I chose to do my own version of Wendy Darling, from Peter Pan.
My idea, was very simple~ I really wanted a Wendy inspired outfit in a similar styling as Secret Honey's Disney fashion items. With that in mind, I sketched out a rough idea of how I wanted my costume/coord to look.
From the above sketch, I knew I would need to reach out to alternate sources for items, so I went to etsy to look for small business owners that had or could create what I envisioned.
My dress was created by BbeautyDesigns
I purchased their Wendy Darling dress and requested for a shorter hemline to modernize the look, and to create a cuter silhouette like I envisioned.
They owner was extremely efficient and my dress came out perfect! It was surprisingly comfortable too.
My cape was created by Capeandcrown13
I ordered a custom cape, which is just gorgeous! I'll have a separate blog post on my cape because I ended up wearing it a few times and have some pretty photos I want to share.
My ears were made by CaleighsCrowns
I ordered the perfectly fitting Wendy Darling inspired Mouse Ears Flower Crown
The ears are extremely sturdy, and withstood 3 coaster rides and a long day of wear and tear. It's full of adorable details which adds to it's charm.
I topped off my outfit with pearl and star accessories that I bought for cheap off eBay~
Of course no Peter Pan related outfit would be complete without Pixie dust, and seriously, I was slathered in my MAC Reflects Pearl!
Relatively, my outfit was pretty simple and easy and I could have fun with it, which I was definitely glad for.
This was the first year all of us could just go with the flow, ride whatever ride we wanted, and not feel pressured to take a perfect group photo and worry over costume details, wigs or props. So, it was a nice break!
It was also a nice break from studying, and a good excuse to see my girls and forget about life for a few hours!
So, if this ends up being the last Halloween post for me this year~
I want to wish you all a happy and safe Halloween!!
