Some girlies around here are super excited about the big holiday that is right around the corner....of course, Halloween! Every year I try to "encourage" various costume choices and then I need to realize it really isn't what I want them to be. I remember the years I went trick or treating and am certain that my Mom's first choice for me wasn't the plastic Snoopy costume that ripped half way through the party. It's all about what they want to be, within reason...is it me or do so many of the little girl Halloween costumes look....mature and inappropriate? I'm being generous here! I recently saw a Strawberry Shortcake costume that looked very appropriate for Las Vegas but not Strawberryland.
Etsy has some excellent options this year, here are a few of my favorites!
I absolutely love the creative shop, Lover Dovers! I love the girly details of this Alice dress...
and this Little Red Riding Hood costume
Something very strange and indisputably creative going on here....you don't see too many adult pterodactyl costumes around! Check 'em out at Missnessamonster
Perfect for your super boy from Flingamo Designs
How cute is this little football costume? Custom made at Ventichai's shop
Whatever they decide, I want to make sure that they choose because someday they may have no interest in dressing up on Halloween (sob). For now, it's up to them.
What are your kids going as this year?
