Past & Present Halloween Costumes with Special Meanings

Image
  This years marks the 30th anniversary of my favorite teen movie, Clueless , and the 100th anniversary of a wonderful novel, The Great Gatsby . So, I'm sharing a past photo of my Cher Horowitz costume and a recent photo of my Daisy Buchanan costume. The recent photo was taken at Hearst Castle. Perhaps you can consider one of these costumes for the upcoming Halloween? Happy Halloween!

Clueless-Inspired Yellow Plaid

  Can you believe it was 30 years ago when Clueless became a hit? Those of us who were kids then may still be kids at heart. So, why not put on a yellow plaid skirt for the sake of nostalgia? A yellow plaid set like Cher Horowitz's may be an overdose, too flashy for a grown-up when it's still two weeks away from Halloween. So, I chose to pair the yellow plaid skirt with this year's butter yellow crop jacket as an update. A light jacket is warm enough in the mild October weather of California. Honestly speaking, I'm now a little skinnier than I was in middle school. It takes a lot of discipline to constantly maintain a slim body figure after losing excessive puberty weight, but it's doable. I'm living proof. Willing to share my weight management tips with anyone interested. Happy autumn!
