Fabulous frocks: Follow the yellow brick road!



In honor of the most magical month ever we decided to dress up in Halloween themed looks every week! What month? Why its OCTOBER, ofcourse! It is full of wonderful things, Kirsten's birthday, Paola and Anna's birthdays, Minnie's birthday, and even halloween! We are huge fans of halloween so much in tact that we have decided to dress up EVERYDAY of the week including weekends,to keep the halloween cheer going all month long.This may prove a daunting task to some,but we want to assure you that not only is it possible its also  every bit of enjoyable as it sounds. We are taking classic halloween themes and turning them into pinup versions for our challenge.Thats what we do best after all,putting a little bit of us into classics.So we decided to kickstart the month with a childhood favorite. We will admit that we watched this movie more times than we can count & we loved it.(Except for the flying monkeys, did anyone even like those ?They were just creepy).If you haven't guessed already by the telltale title we are doing outfits inspired by characters from "The Wizard of Oz. From the Wicked witch of the West to the cowardly lion,we're covering all the bases and are excited to share them with you. So follow the yellow brick road to this weeks outfit recap!

We even included our favorite lady Minnie in a few shots since its her special month too.We are so excited to show you what else we have in store,as well as celebrate all month long with y'all.Who says Halloween has to be limited to one day of the year? Not us thats for sure!As you know being long time followers and all,we love themes and never limit ourselves to how long they can go so neither should you. Life is too short, to not do what makes you happy whether that is dressing up like its halloween all month long or just a few days. So go ahead and pull out your best themed outfits,lets get spooky together everybody!
