Happy Halloween!

We saw this on our drive home from work tonight! 

Here are a few pictures of me dressed up from last weekend's Halloween Costume Party: 

As you can see, I was of course, a bedazzling GYPSY woman! I spent a long, bitter hour and a half on my hair, which was wonderful. 

Also, please observe the intricate  authentic gypsy gemstone studded waist design on my authentic turquoise gypsy skirt: 

While I didn't end up pulling off a Maleficent costume, I spent absolutely no money on the Gypsy Woman costume! It came together last minute and worked out perfectly. 

Halloween Costume

I want to be: Maleficent!

I think the costume would be releatively easy to make. It is described here: Maleficent appears in the form of a tall, green skinned woman with yellow eyes and massive horns, symbolic of her evilness. She is clad in a black and purple robe with bat wing-like edges, and wears a gold ring with a large circular black stone in it. She has a pet raven called Diablo, and a legion of goblins and troll-like entities at her command. In addition to this she carries a staff with a glowing green orb at the tip, through which she casts her spells, which include an ability to teleport herself from place to place or send bolts of lightning at enemies. She is also capable of shape shifting at will into numerous forms, including a will-o-the-wisp and a massive black and purple dragon. Despite this, she is in fact a fairy rather than a sorceress like the other three fairy godmothers in the movie. She is also renowned as being somewhat beautiful in a macabre fashion.

I can't wait!!! What are you going to be for halloween?
