Happy Sexy Halloween!

Hey everyone Halloween is coming up sooner rather than later, I worked with AdoreMe.com to come up with easy costume ideas. Adore Me is a New York based lingerie retailer that makes beautiful, affordable lingerie for every body. They sell everything from bras & panties, sleepwear, corsets and anything in-between. Get your first set for only $24.95 with free shipping both ways!



The White Swan is made with the Kira corset and a white tutu (learn how to make one here). Pull your hair in a bun and make a simple clip with feathers and some little glitter for a great look.

Light Pink Nail Polish




For the Mermaid costume let your imagine run wild! Start with a Gwen Contour and hot glue different pearls and shells along the seam or anywhere on the bra. Even have it hang off the underwire or the straps. Add a sparkly skirt, some fun makeup and hair and you're ready to go. 

Pearls Loose and String
Assortment of Shells


The Tiffany box is the easiest costume to make with this Kady corset, the bow is already on it! Throw on a pearl necklace and a tiffany blue skirt to complete the outfit. 




The Cat Women costume is for that girl that is searching for that seductive look. Start with the Lorelai lingerie and add cat ears/mask, leather pants/boots and a bold red lip and you're ready for the night!

DIY: Mike Wazowski Halloween Costume

I was Mike Wazowski from Monsters University for Halloween. I love that movie and I thought it would be a cute costume. All together this costume costed about $24 and I was very easy to make.


The materials you are going to need are:
A green shirt 
Green tights
Green tulle
Elastic
White, Blue, and Black felt 
A blue hat
And a glue gun


First draw a big circle on the white felt 


Cut it out


Than draw a little smaller circle on the blue felt




Make an even smaller circle on the black felt



Make a very small circle on the white felt 





Draw the shape of his ears on the white felt and cut it out


Draw out his mouth on the black felt




Then cut it out


Make the size thing on the white felt


Then make teeth bumps on the white mouth 


Cut it out and glue everything on the shirt


For the hat I made a stencil for the MU


Then just cut it out on the blue, white and black felt


Glue it together


Then glue it or tape it onto the hat if you want to use the hat again without the MU on it 


For the tutu you want to measure the elastic around your waist 


Then just sew the two ends together


Lay out the tutu and cut out strips



Then cut the strip in half 


Then take those two strips and fold in half


What I did was put the elastic on and knotted each strip on it was easier
So put the strip under the elastic


The put the tulle through the loop


And it should look like this 

Just keep doing that until you cover all over the elastic
And it should looks like this when your done



Put on your tights, put white shorts under the tutu because it is see through, throw on the shirt you made and the hat and your Mike Wazowski!



Hope you had a great Halloween!
And have an idea for next year!

DIY: Minnie Mouse Halloween Costume!

Halloween is coming up very fast and I wanted to show you guys what I was being. I think it came out really good.


What you will need to be Minnie Mouse is:

1) A red and white polka dot dress
This one is from Forever 21

2) Ears with a bow
I just brought these at a Halloween store
and then I hot glued a bow on it.

To make the bow I cut one red ribbon nine and half inches long than the other one two inches long.


Then glue both sides of the long ribbon to the middle of it


Just glue the short piece around the middle to make a bow


And glue it to your ears!

3) Next you will need black tights for her black legs


 4) Finally you need yellow shoes with red bows, which I made myself


So I found these flats at Marshell's for $11 and than I just pulled off the bows



First tape the whole bottom and put newpaper in the shoes so none of the paint gets inside or on the bottom


 Spray paint them yellow, I use spary paint for wood and metal but didn't realize you can't use it on leather because all the paint will just cracked off so, use leather spary paint or just regular paint.

I did 3 coats and a thick coat of clear spary paint and it still cracked off. But I still wore them because it made the outfit.


To the make the bows for the shoes its the same as how I made it for the ears but the cutting measurements are smaller. Cut one red ribbon six inches and the other one two inches.


Then just hot glue them on the shoes when the paint is dry




5) Add some fake eyelashes and a black round nose



Put it all together and your Minnie Mouse!
