Kimono-ova

Get it?  You can thank Der for that knee slapper.  So…to go along with my all.things.Asian.obsession, I’ve always wanted and loved Kimonos. In fact, I wore one for a particular Halloween (about 4 years ago)  and I believe that just may have been the happiest day of my life, well next to various other moments (childbirth, meeting my love–you know, the usual ladies).

I guess as an attempt to relive that moment on Halloween, I been loving on the Kimono styled shirts.  My picks:

  1. Alloy Paisley Kimono
  2. Francesca’s Sparkle & Sprinkle Kimono
  3. Target Xhilaration V-Neck Kimono Top
  4. Walmart’s Norma Kamali Stripe Jersey Kimono
  5. J. Jill Floral Kimono

My son was M.J. for Halloween…

What was yours?

All items for costume we either hand made or non-Halloween-Costume-Store finds (silver glove with sequins glued on, black wind pants, white tank, used white button down, borrowed black curly wig, black dress shoes).

Happy Halloween!!

Happy Halloween Everyone!

What’s That? What’s That? It’s the Great Pumpkin!

Are you dressing up your wee one this Halloween?  You know, the one that probably hasn’t even had candy yet, but so you can take him around your neighborhood and get yourself candy?  Or are you going to spend the money on a costume for one Halloween picture?  Either way, I have found some TURBO cute costumes that are sure to drive the little one INSANE what with all the stuff around his face and making it difficult to walk and all.  But GOOD LORD they are cute, aren’t they?  I think it’s a tie for me between the Masked Owl and the Roast Turkey…mmmmhmmm baby toes!!
