Halloween costume fun...

One of my favorite holidays is approaching. & I'm beyond excited...

My son's birthday is coming up and Halloween time means dress up time.
By the way, my sons due date was originally October 31st!!! How awesome is that! (Maybe that's why he's into monster shows and ugly characters.) October is also the birth month for a few friends and family members, which means party time!

Here are a few pictures from our costumes from Halloween 2016. My darling & I were lumber jacks. 😁😁 I was a male lumber Jack, not a lumber Jane. (Or whatever the female version of a lumber Jack is) It was so much fun wearing the costume. & very easy to recreate!!

I purchased the beard from The Spirit store. Can be found here. My flannel shirt is from Target. Regular jeans, boots, & beanie from my closet. Suspenders are from Walmart. All I had to do was make my eyebrows thicker. Apply my beard, (which is basically a sticker for your face) & change. Extremely easy!!!
How amazing are the other costumes!!! Cruella Deville, Sadness from Inside Out & Frida!!!

These are some of the costume ideas that I am currently considering, but haven't made an official decision.

This one for an adult would be so funny! The crazy cat lady! Seems easy to recreate as well. The hardest thing would probably be finding all the cat plushies.

The classic nerd costume. I tend to look for costumes that allow me to wear glasses. Since I'm blind...  This one is perfect! Simple and can be diy. No need to purchase anything, except the funny teeth. They crack me up.

I also want to step away from the "funny" Halloween costume look. This one is so girly and fun. & can be a couples costume or individual.

These are some of the ideas I am considering. Who knows, I might choose one of these or a different one altogether.

My son wants to be one of the Five nights at Freddy's character. He's obsessed with them.
What will your Halloween costume be this year? Do you prefer to go trick or treating or give out the treats?

Thank you for reading my thoughts & feel free to share your thoughts with me as well. I hope your first day of October was full of pumpkin fun!
Xoxo,
Carla

Getting comfortable in my own skin...

This year I will be turning 30!!! Where and how that happened? I have no idea,,, What I do know, is that it has taken me a very long time to accept myself.  As a matter of fact, I'm currently still working on it.  Through the years I have struggled with learning to love myself.  Never completely content with my appearance.  Whether it was my teeth, face, features, body.  You name it!  In the past I have even contemplated getting surgery. What stopped me? The money of course! As well as the scary stories told by friends.  Which often times they hear from others.  Postpartum, I suffered from weight gain.  It took me years to loose the weight.  Even then, my body is not perfect.  Does that define me? Do my looks define me? Of course NOT! I know that; However that doesn't change the fact that I obsess over my weight, and constantly weigh myself. My point with all this rambling is, that it's never too late to learn to LOVE ...

Play! By Sephora September box...

This is a really late post/review for my Play! By Sephora box. I apologize but I have been swamped. School & life have been getting in the way. Adulting... amirite?(insert side eye) My first box arrived September 16. The second box arrived October 17. (I will be uploading the October box in a separate post) September box review: I was excited to open it, even though it's not an actual mystery box. (I also saw many posts spoiling the box contents) My favorite product is the perfume sample (of course, since I'm currently obsessed with perfume samples) check my searching for the perfect scent post here . The Benefit Cosmetics Gimme Brow Volumnizing Fiber Gel is also something fun for me to try. Since my eyebrows are light & thin. This is definitely a product I could be interested on in the future. All in all, I was content with the box. Although I'm starting to think that I may only keep the subscription for 2 more months. I'm not entirely sure yet. We shal...

Florals for spring, groundbreaking!

Spring break means spring has arrived. (& that my son got a week off from school) <help!> T o celebrate and to get some much needed adult time, I went out for dinner with friends.  I also wanted to secretly take my new purse "out to town".  I mean, what better way to complete an outfit, than with a "spring-y" bag.   I paired this beautiful  top with jeans and nude ankle strap low block heels. (Also, I previously wore this top for my son's 5th birthday party ). The top can be worn off the shoulders or as a loser relaxed shoulder style. (As previously worn) It features bell sleeves and is a perfect transitional top. These shoes are slowly becoming one of my fave pair. I'm a big fan of the ankle strap heel look, and the fact that these have a low block heel make me very happy!  I also love that the heel features a cork look. Yellow is such a fun color for spring.  It will brighten up your look and day.  My top is a ...
