Halloween is one of my all-time favorite occasions. I LOVE to dress up in costume. I’m the kind of girl that wears wigs to a concert and noodles, so you can imagine…Luckily, my new husband shares my affinity for playing dress-up and allows himself to be “convinced” to participate.

At our rehearsal dinner, my mom made an extremely lovely video montage of us and we were dressed up in costume in so many of the pictures.

I began to embrace it as our equity. Here are some costumes from years past.

2008 Marlboro Man & Hula Girl

2009 Cavepeople

2010 Little Red & the Big Bad Wolf

This year we are being Zorro & some version of CZJ from Mask of Zorro. What about you?

BAD

Is it just me or does Fergie keep looking worse? Not a fan of the roots, kinda like the dress but cannot get over how harsh her eyebrow arch is!

I typically think Emma Stone looks great. Here she looks incredibly odd. That’s really all I can say. Like I can’t imagine the same person picking out that gorgeous peach sheath for the golden globes and then choosing this.

Cameron Diaz: Will she ever age? Or fatten?

Various Kardashians: THEY’RE ALL SO FREAKING MADE UP! It seriously bothers me. Khloe looks Amazonian. Kendall’s hair is terrifying. Kim looks like she bought her dress at BeBe. Kourtney looks mehhh. Kylie looks fairly cute. Ugh I’m exhausted….

GOOD

Well done Rachel Bilson & Nina Dobrev. Both look happy, adorable and are adhering to my rule of “Pick One: boobs, back or legs”. I can’t stop drooling over Bilson’s booties.

UGLY

I never want to make people feel bad about their weight. With that said, when you are a celebrity you must dress to be captured on film. Also, if your legs are less than stellar – don’t wear a super short dress.

Looking WAY BIGGER than you are offenders: Demi Lovato and Zooey Deschanel.

I just came across this adorable Etsy shop called Silly Buddy. They make custom bow tie collars, regular collars and leashes. I don’t know if I can make it through the day without purchasing one for these two.

Which one is your fave?

(what i wore: dress – thrifted, peep toe booties – forever21, sunnies that are both round & cateye – ebay)

Oh hello. I was feeling blue yesterday because I’ve given up hope of staying sweat-free on my wedding day. At least everyone will be dripping wet when it’s 105 degrees at 8pm. Prepare for the worst, hope for the best!!!

People might mistake my tears for sweat beads if I get a little emo (….I got a good man, anything could happen when someone tells me I get to keep him forevs). I hit a weight loss goal so the slightly gigantic hair is in honor of that. Or something. And yes. I am wearing sunglasses in the bathroom just because I wanted to show them off. I also couldn’t get anyone to go outside long enough to take a picture of me in a more sunglass-appropriate sitch.

It is THAT HOT.

Or am I alone here? We all knew how good Kate would look in jeans but just the whole visual of them in rodeo gear makes me laugh. Check out the full gallery at the fug girls.

While I was in Hot Springs this weekend, I unearthed a stash of pictures from long ago. Even at three I loved to accessorize. It was wonderful to look through these, it brought back lovely  memories and reminded me that I’ve always enjoyed dressing. Sometimes the past can lead you into your future in unexpected ways.

I’ve had a really tough week at work. I can’t pin down exactly what the problem is. I’m sure it’s a combination of work/life/wedding stress that’s effecting my attitude. Anyway, something made me laugh today and I instantly felt better. It truly is the best medicine.

I try to steer clear of her because she exhausts me so easily. But, with her big engagement (big being the operative word) she is hard to ignore. Here the genie of the bootie goes awry with the color blocking and crop top trends.

Nothing blew me away. Sooo here’s what I felt like sharing. Red carpets have been so uninteresting lately, do you agree?

Chelsea Handler: I hate this dress. Am I being too harsh?

Bynes: Hanus. Too much. The extensions, the tightness, the make-up.

Leighton: I am just not into this. I feel like I’ve seen this dress everywhere.

Reese: Safe

I’m an Emma Watson fan but this dress does nothing for her. Except making her look like a gymnast.

I’m seriously tired of Cam wearing rompers/short shorts. You have amazing legs. We get it.

Jessica Szor: Hobby Lobby meets Brooklyn

Emma Stone seems to be doing a lot of good things style-wise. I’m also impressed by the fact that her hair seems to look good in every color.

Elle Fanning: age-appropriate, adorable

K-Stew: While I’m not loving the safety pins, I do think this is a welcome look from her. She’s slightly smiling. Her hair looks real. Her make-up isn’t toooo smoky.

What can you say? I know she’s not fat because her thighs aren’t touching but this has to be the most ill-fitting dress ever assembled. This goes to show you that celebrity does not guarantee you taste. This is seriously horrifying.
