Dressing To Disturb

Hey there guys!

Are you ready for Halloween? I know I am. I've been drenching old tshirts, hoodies and jeans in dirt and fake blood to get that thoroughly zombified look. Though, in the process of doing it I got more mud on me than on the actual costume, which I previously thought would have been impossible...

Anyway, today I've taken three 'traditional' outfits and bumped up the style factor. Tell me what you think in the comments, what's your favourite?

Enjoy!

ring: Topshop
coat: Topshop
leggings: New Look
scrunchie: New Look 
tshirt: Asos
bag: Asos
shoes: New Look

For a skeleton, I could only imagine wearing metallic pieces and gold and silver accessories. Thats why I love the shoes and the coat for this outfit. The sandles almost look like ribs in their shape, plus they're so shiny and space-age while the coat has a gorgeous geometric print that is subtle but combines well the leathered leggings and the shirt. 

choker: Asos
skirt: New Look 
gloves: Asos
ring: Asos
top: Beyond Retro
purse: Asos (similar)
boots: Topshop
earings: Asos  
lipstick: Topshop

It had to be dark lace and deep reds for a vampiric outfit, so I took inspiration from the lovely lady herself, Morticia Addams, who always wears inky velvets, long skirts and large rings which just scream vampire vibes.  The lipstick is also perfect - you cant have a vampire costume without dark red lips! I'd also recommended a very strong cheek bone if you were doing this look, so think Angelina Jolie's Maleficent (although maybe not that sharp!)

bomber: Topshop
choker: Etsy
shoes: Asos
nail paint: Barry M
dress: New Look
rucksack: Asos
socks; Topshop
devil kit: Beyond Retro

This on had to be cuter, which is why I've incorporated this gorgeous monster devil bag from Asos which caught me eye in one of the Asos stylists posts. I also noticed that in a lot of devil costumes there are red roses, so the skull and rose choker necklace hits the nail on the head. And the most brilliant thing out of all of this, is that Beyond retro have a full devil kit why is so awesome!

See ya soon guys
