Outfit Post: Family Halloween

So this isn't really an outfit post, but a costume post...our neighborhood has an amazing parade and party every year for Halloween, so Q and I take the opportunity to dress up with Aurora.  I wasn't feeling super creative this year, but everything in our costumes was secondhand or stuff we ready owned except for my glasses! So that's pretty awesome.  It was a gorgeous day--didn't seem like a Frankenstorm was on the way (but it gave Q the day off work today, so I am not complaining!).

Here is our little throwback family of bobbysoxers/bad boy:


If I'm totally honest, I'd love Q to look like this every day (but it may be a bit much for a Physical Therapist)!  He patiently let his hair grow so we could style it, but he's desperate for a cut this week. He does, however, love the jacket and plans on wearing it regularly (score!).  I felt only like a slight (quirky) departure from myself. I got my skirt on eBay, and it was more costume-y than I had hoped, only because I wanted to find one with records to match Aurora's (which I thrifted this summer and almost forgot about!).

Hope you are all safe and sound and warm and dry (and with electricity, able to read this!) on the East coast...stay tuned for a second post today for Meatless Monday!

xo,
Amanda

    1. Thank you, love! I do wear these shoes, but wasn't sure if the glasses are too much since they're bright white...I LOVE the shape, though, and may have to get a pair of vintage real ones! These are just fakeys.
