Nevermore

Outfit (Costume) Details: Nordstrom fringe boots, DIY costume, unknown stockings.

"But the raven still beguiling all my sad soul into smiling,

Straight I wheeled a cushioned seat in front of bird and bust and door;

Then, upon the velvet sinking, I betook myself to linking

Fancy unto fancy, thinking what this ominous bird of yore -

What this grim, ungainly, ghastly, gaunt, and ominous bird of yore

Meant in croaking `Nevermore.'" -Edgar Allan Poe

I am aware that Halloween was Saturday, and this post is long overdue. I didn't even get to take decent pictures of myself wearing this most fabulous DIY Raven costume-I'm quite proud of myself! Especially since I made it when I was very young. But anyways, I hope you all had fun on Halloween! My night was rather dreary, actually. I didn't even get to wear my costume due to the rain. Luckily I was able to wear it the night before at my school's Halloween themed dance :) And I won best individual costume! I was very excited.

I leave you with a few photos of moi in my younger years wearing the same costume with a different (much smaller) dress.. I made this costume many years ago with a little help from my mother, ofcourse...

I hope you're all having a most wonderful week, d a r l i n g s ;)
