So, as promised, I had my Lucy help draw for the dress I'd promised to giveaway in the midst of the storm:

Congrats Justsewsew! I'll dig up your contact info through your Wordpress blog. The post office may not open for a few more days though. So be patient. Things are slowly getting back to normal here in NYC.
As you can see, it's quite beautiful out now:
Which is good news for Lucy, who will get to wear her Twilight Sparkle costume out trick-or-treating tonight after all:
I actually threw together a costume for myself the other day. And the great thing about being so last-minute is I got to be totally topical:
Get it? I'm a tourist who didn't get the memo about the hurricane. I made the camera from cardboard, hot glue and electrical tape, and the strap from a wire coat hanger and nylon strapping. The shirt was stencilled using freezer paper. And the Playbill was from the show I just saw on Broadway. It's hard to see my hair, but I used a half-can of hairspray to get it up pretty high.
So happy Halloween, everybody!
Oh my gosh, your costume is so awesome!!
ReplyDeleteThanks!!
DeleteFantastic costume! Hilarious!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I've always opted for funny over scary (and sexy).
DeleteHappy halloween! love the costume! i think it's a bout time i try my hand on making my son a last minute costume, hmmm... he's in the stage of not wanting to wear anything but diapers tho. :)

ReplyDeleteAlso, your costume is/was awesome!
Thank you! That's so sweet. I will get on writing my post about it as soon as I get a break from my family — this hurricane has meant no school all week, and my husband working from home (no power at his office still!), so it's been a little crazy around here!
DeleteYour costume is clever. I really love the pumpkin! What a cute face:)
ReplyDeleteYAY! This is the first time I've won anything, EVER!!!! The dress is actually going to be for my friend who is renting out the in-laws apartment in our house and she is going to be super PSYCHED! Take all the time you need - Now there's one less Christmas present that I have to make/buy.
