Happy Halloween, everyone! This year Halloween has been more of a month-long state of mind than a single holiday. I haven't worn normal clothes after dark since our show last Tuesday, and though the glitter is getting a little sloppier and the circles under the eyes a little darker, I don't want it to end!
Of all the parties Allyson and I have been to this week, by far the most beautiful was last night's Vintage Vivant Witches' Ball. We judged the costume contest- no easy feat with so many incredibly attired individuals in attendance. Huge thank you's to Amelia and Angel for throwing this amazing event, and for asking us to participate. If you've never been, there's always next month.

Uh-melia looking uh-mazing.
This is part of the bird in a gilded cage costume she made for our Dreaming in Color show.

Beautiful Miss Natalie Ribbons
Adam as Ziggy Stardust (Drea loaned him this leotard, and if that's not customer service,
I don't know what is) with Colin who apparently was the Invisible Man, but I don't see him anywhere.
Marley, even as a witch, sweet as can be
Cute little Cathy in vintage Charm School Vintage
I really like this shot for some reason.
Drea, you ARE Carmen Miranda.
Allyson whipped up this Sweeney Todd wig in a snap
This woman is much happier than I would be if I had a huge bat on my head.
Kate, be still my heart.
Billy Beasty, the original Viking
YOU ARE SO CUTE!
Cheer up, buddy, it's not so bad!
Sorry Tina Sparkles, even those eyes and teeth can't take you from cute to scary.
Love this one, too.
He was covered in a million Post Its.

Time for the costume contest!
After much deliberation, the first place winner and recipient of a custom devil wig is...
Shark eating mermaid and sea witch!
No contest, right?
Second place went to this amazing creature...
And third place to this incredible black and white couple!
Don't be mad you didn't win, honey, there's always next year...
Have a great night tonight, everyone, and be safe!
LOVE! Thank you so much for judging the costume contest, Shari! That was so much fun! Thank you also for documenting this magical evening - I love these shots! You are magic.
ReplyDeleteThank you Shari! I really love your pictures, especially the more candid ones...that shot of the woman in the red dress on the stage is lovely!
