Halloween is Near!
Halloween is right around the corner, and I know that I’m excited. In fact, I’ve been going crazy with thinking of what I’m going to be for Halloween. Especially since this year my budget is rather tight.
I’ve been looking around my house seeing what I could use as a cheapo costume. I found a black and white striped shirt, a pair of black pants, along side my black beret. I brainstormed, and came up with a mime costume. Not too shabby, especially since the face paint used was only 97 cents at Walmart. The rest of the makeup I already had. I just used eyeliner, baby powder to set the face paint, and red lipstick. I put all of that together, and voila, it actually came out pretty cute. If I wanted to spend a little more money to finish off the look though, I could go to Hot Topic (the only place I could think of right off the bat) and buy a pair of $8 black suspenders. So basically my costume cost a little over $9.
A costume that cost me absolutely no money, was my ninja outfit. Thanks to Michelle Phan’s inside out ninja shirt trick, I turned my black shirt into a ninja mask.
(the photo above is not me, but a screenshot of Michelle Phan’s video)I also browsed the internet, and found two costumes that I thought were funny and cute.
