Happy Halloween 2011!!

I think I am/we are done this year's Halloween!! We went up to California of Science Museum last Sat. with friends and had an awesome Halloween evening there. Here are some highlights from the evening.  I am suppose to be a tulip goddess but then I turned out to look like Russian Babushka doll with pieces I put together from my wardrobe. {I guess it is a good thing that I didn't spend a dime for my costume.} The lashes are long and curly which I bought at Rite aid and they are meant to be the look for Vampire's mistress.  I attach Shu Uemura colored lashes at bottom eyeliner.  Me and my Ilona, Princess Cinderella.  Little Justin Bieber  Wizard of the Oz family! complimentary drinks.  My Russian  Babushka  doll look.  Aqua by Aqua (link here)  coral orange bodysuit, pink tulip shaped bubbly skirt, mustard yellow tights, Alaia gold wrap heels, Anthropologie bib necklace as embellished apron,  mirrored head band.  A pair of
