Found It

I was quite thankful to get this picture in an email. This is from last Halloween at my workplace, and I'm the second right in the picture. My costume was Indiana Jones. It turned out great and was quite inexpensive to put together.

Last night I bought my Halloween costume(s). I like to stretch the holiday out over several days, and wear a different costume on each separate day. I might dust off the ol' Indiana Jones-ette costume this year, but three more have been added to the line up including:

penguin!



















Leia


















and a lion!















The Calvin and Hobbes costume is still a possibility, but due to the lack of a suitable Calvin, the costume idea has been shelved until a solution presents itself.

Haaaalloweeeeen!!!!

I think the days right before Halloween are my favorite part of the holiday because I love imagining a costume and then piecing it together. The holiday itself is always fun, but the parties are never what I build them up to be in my creative, costume crazed mind. Last year I was Indiana Jones but for this Halloween I've been plotting my costume for months. I'm going as Hobbes from Calvin and Hobbes. Know any Calvin lookalikes? I'm accepting applications.

In addition to being in the early stages of planning my own costume, I'd like to help you with yours! In the coming weeks you can look forward to a veritable jholiday blog Halloween fashion show, with pictures of some jocose, inventive (and easy!) costumes that surely no one else will have.
