Costumes

Today I went shopping for my Halloween costume. I had finally decided to just buy a mask and wear some ankle booties and a black dress. Think Katherine from The Vampire Diaries on the Masquerade episode. After picking my costume, I started thinking what the big fasination with Halloween was. I suppose getting the chance to be something you're too scared to be or something you wish you could be gives people a thrill. Sometimes I feel like Halloween is the one night of the year we don't wear a mask. The person we wish we could be or the person we really are comes out. Whether it's someone beautiful or strong or sexy it's our alter ego that we all wish could take over forever. It's a funny thing what clothes do for us. Some people call us fashionistas superficial or high-matinance, but we're not just making an outfit we're building confidence for women to not be  afraid to be themselves.
