What I wore for Halloween 2011

When you want to eliminate the possibility of wearing the same outfit  as someone else - you make the costume yourself. I found my inspiration: a top in my closet that I had never worn - it was a man shirt with a scary pirate on it from Jay Jay's (When the new Pirates of the Caribbean Movie was out). 
I also had a spare blue and white striped shirt that I didnt' like anymore - I ripped it up and mutated the man shirt to create a messy dress for a Pirate!
I looked for a red bandanna, handkerchief, fabric place mat - nothing. I did find a red tie in my cleaning adventures and thought that would be alright to wear instead! I finished my outfit off by wearing one arm warmer with mismatched bling; gold earring one one ear and feathers on the other
My eye make up was fun cuz I just splashed color on my eyes. I threw on lots of blue eye shadow - and added stripes a bit of blue and silver on my cheek.I then smeared on thick eyeliner to make my eyes stand out. I learnt from vids on youtube that you put on the eye shadow before the eyeliner - and it makes life so much easier!
