I love link up days. They just make me really excited. Maybe I need a life.
Whatever. Today is the day to link up anything Halloween related! Just grab a button (copy the HTML) and link up your Halloween posts below!
When I started this post I had of an idea of where I was going to go with it. But that got completely derailed when I started searching for Halloween costumes. For some reason, this year I'm really struggling. If you want to give me your bright idea, that would be great
But as I was looking at old costumes I thought I would reminisce on how Halloween changes as you get older. The good and the bad, the funny and the skanky, it's all part of being a girl on Halloween.
Halloween Through the Years:
Baby:
You don't have a choice, you're going as some form of an animal. Your parents dressed you and they are super excited for their little lion's first Halloween. Even more excited than you. You'll be the cutest thing ever. Everyone will say so.
Toddler:
You are dressing yourself and you want to wear every color of the rainbow while at the same time being every Disney princess. You get more candy this year than ever before. And ever again.
Pre Teen
Me: “Mom Can I wear makeup”
Mom: No
Teenager:
I want to look really cute. But also kinda slutty. But not too slutty. I wonder if my mom will let me wear this out of the house?
College:
But can I drink in this?
Adult Phase 1
I don't care, I'm wearing this. Also, I need to be comfortable.
Adult Phase 2:
I'll look so good in this at the Halloween party.
That rule about girls not talking bad about you when you're dressed slutty it totally made up.
Adult Phase 3: Couples Costume
I doesn't matter what he says, we are dressing as a couple. And he will like it.
