I've been good in keeping up with tradition (though not so good at posting)... So, from where we last left off, starting with 2017! (Man, I haven't posted in forever... sorry for the ugly formatting.)
Unfortunately, the Halloweens from these couple of years (with the exception of this year) fell on work days, which meant very little photo records.
I've always tried to get pieces that I can re-wear for my everyday attire, but 2017? 2017, I couldn't resist getting a floor-length dress in my favourite colour. :P

2017: Elizabeth Bennet (at a Japanese restaurant). It doesn't really look like Elizabeth Bennet - I just wanted an excuse to wear a pretty dress... I also haven't gotten into the world of contacts yet, so the glasses stay!

2018: Peggy Carter. Creepy work selfie. My curls fell (my hurr is never very good at staying put). I also really just wanted to get another red lippie (as if I don't have enough) - and the one I was wearing was actually what Hayley Atwall wore in the Captain America movie! I made the SSR pin myself using those shrinky dinks - it was fun to make!

2019: Janet Wick (John Wick's female alter-ego). My friends and I came up with stripper names for each other (lol) and JANET is mine, so how fitting...! This was pretty fun to put together. I was especially proud of the slash I painted on my cheek - it was realistic enough that people asked me if I was okay, lol.

2020: Sigrit from Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga
(I am Ygrek, her Asian cousin). I love this film, lol. Quarantine meant
that shopping is hard so I re-purposed an old cardigan (that I love,
but rarely wear) and just wore similar things to what Sigrit wore in the
movie. I should really learn to do my hair... That was the hardest part
of this "costume" (yeah, surprisingly, sewing was easier). Also
pretended to have multiple ear piercings (I don't have pierced ears). |
