Playing Dress Up

It’s not exactly dressing up but knowing that it’s a costume certainly made me feel that I’m playing dress up like what we did when we were little girls. Fun, fun, fun!

So, yea. I esp put makeup on for this mini-shoot. Hoping for the morning light to cooperate and give me some decent light. But it turned out to be a bit difficult so I settled on this shot.

The costume is just the angel wing. I’m testing it out. It’s my official costume for Halloween this year. Yes. I’m seriously going to wear it on the 31st. Costume party. What’s great about choosing to wear the angel wing is quite simple. I can wear any outfit and just add it on, seemingly like an accessory. Brilliant, eh?

I’m also experimenting on my makeup. The one I had on is my first try.

What about you? How are you celebrating your Halloween this year? Planning on attending any costume party?

    Hi Sasha, the make up looks good on you and it was also perfect for your angel costume. It’s soft and feminine.. I know halloween is already over but can I please know where you bought your angel’s wings.. they are so nice.. have you seen the Victoria’s Secret fashion show… i don’t know when was it but the models were wearing lingerie and diffrent kinds of angel wings.. it was beautiful.

    Cute white hairclips would’ve done a good job in making you look more angelic (e.g. Keira Knightley’s flower pins and bun ‘do).

    If you’re in the Divisoria and Quiapo area, there are affordable and durable angel wings you can get and even re-use for other occasions.Mine, has been reused by my daughter for school play

    ive always wanted to dress up with wings on my back (either black or white) but never got to… :( just a thought, how come girl’s halloween costume are limited relatively to guy’s… i mean with guys there is a wide variety but with girls it’s usually the sexy nurse or the playboy bunny or fairy. i’d like to see more horror in girl’s costumes :D
