| This is Halloween |

Nu är det höööst!

Halloween närmar sig, och trots att jag inte har planerat in någon speciell halloween-fest, så är det dags att börja fundera på vad man ska ha på sig. Halloween är lätt min favvo-högtid på året! Nu när jag är svarthårig så funderar jag på att använda mig av det i min outfit. Jag tänker typ Edward Scissorhands, Sweeney Todd, L, eller Cheshire cat från Alice i Underlandet (som för övrigt är det bästa konceptet någonsin). Vad tycker ni? Bilder ifrån archaical.tumblr.com, bland annat!

Translation: Halloween is getting closer, and as it is my favourite holiday of the year, I already started to plan out my halloween outfit. So, because my hair is black nowadays, I'm thinking I could use that somehow! What do you guys think?

SO yeah, it looks really good in my opinion, but it has a STUFFED BEER MUG on it!! I can't wear that in public! Or can I?
