Halloween (belated)

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know it’s the middle of November, but I love Halloween.

There’s something about dressing up as someone else for the night that makes me feel free. By far, my favorite costume in recent years was the hand-made Wonder Woman costume I made in 2003. I wore it again in 2005. Here it is, with a little photoshopped NYC love (thank @techguerilla!)

In 2008, I brought back the black wig and superglued a syringe to my chest as I played the part of Mia Wallace from “Pulp Fiction”.

This year I stayed away from movie and cartoon characters and black wigs, opting instead for the traditional happy witch:

I hope your Halloween was as fun this year as mine was, and that you aren’t afraid to try on a new character or reinvent yourself once in awhile. Happy belated Halloween!

  • Eeewww….I had forgotten about the Pulp Fiction year! I adored your Wonder Woman costume, and was always amazed that you literally built it yourself! You were truly “too cute to spook” this year! Fun post today – thanks for sharing!

  • Gee

    I’m so bummed I had to work on Halloween and didn’t get to dress up this year. Looks like you guess had a great time though.
