Happy Holly-ween!

I can't believe Halloween week is already here! We have already had fun dressed as Carrie Brad-paw (which is our plan for festivities on the day itself, weather permitting) at the Halloween Howl a couple weekends ago, but for this past weekend's festivities at Petco, we decided to mix things up. After all, a girl doesn't want to go to two parties in the same costume, right?

One of the comments we got at our first Holly-ween event was how the tutus lent themselves perfectly to another screen icon besides Sarah Jessica Parker's Carrie. Little did they know, this very character is not only Holly's namesake, but someone we have experience emulating already:

That's right...no fewer than five people asked: "hey, have you ever considered dressing up as Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's?"

So, in the interest of giving the public what they want (and since we already had the costume), we decided to spend another Barkfest at Sniffany's for Petco's Halloween costume contest on Saturday. We placed fourth at the event (after a pair of costumed chickens!!), and had a great afternoon hanging with local pup pals and celebrating the season.
On me: skirt: Space46Boutique, shirt: Threads For Thought, earrings: Chanel (similar), tiara: Vintage, Pearls: Nordstrom
On Holly: skirt: EllieGraceCrafts, Sweater: Smoochie Pooch (old), collar: J&B Custom Leather
I've really found a lot of ways to wear my tutu from Space46Boutique this season! I can see it becoming a favorite piece in my wardrobe, especially with Holly's tutu from EllieGraceCrafts matching so perfectly!

Until Next Time, Darlings! Happy Holly-ween!

    1. Aw why thank you! I have to say, though, the chickens in outfits really did steal the show (one was dyed pink!).
