      Yeah, I just did a quick Google search and saw some of her costumes. I LOVE some them, but others, not su much. I don't like the one where she made herself look like an old lady. But, overall, they ARE GREAT!

  8. My fav costume I ever wore was when one year I was so busy making by hand my husband and son's costumes I had no time to make one for me. We were throwing a costume party that year. So at the last minute I wrapped myself up in toilet paper and dressed as a mummy.

  10. Oh... You see, we don't celebrate Halloween in my country - I know, it's ridiculous! So answering this question is really hard for me, because I could pick every single costume!!! ♥ I love this time of the year, even though I can't do all the things I'd love to do, but well... A costume I've always loved is the bloody bride ahaha Or a witch - kind of like the Hocus Pocus' witches :D Have a lovely and spooky Halloween, Maria!! And thank you for this giveaway!!

    1. Hi, Antonela!

      Yeah, very country has different customs. Halloween is not celebrated in every country. I'm not sure, but I think that the only Hispanic country that celebrates something similar is Mexico, with "El Dia de los Muertos".

      The bloody bride is your favorite costume? Ooooooh, CREEPY! I'm sure that costume has he desired effect of really scaring people!

      I'm not familiar with the Hocus Pocus witches. I'll have to look them up.

      I hope you have a lovely and spooky time on Halloween night, even though it's not celebrated in your country!

      You're very welcome for the giveaway! And thank YOU for entering and leaving such a lovely comment!! :)

    2. Yes, I think you're right! Here in Argentina, every single shop remembers Halloween, but only because people love buying masks and all that stuff, and they need to sell ahaha But we don't celebrate it the way it's celebrated, say, in the US - no trick or treat, no costumes, no pumpkins... We have NOTHING :( But well.
      Check the Hocus Pocus witches, I'm sure you've seen that movie. It's a classic! :D Sarah Jessica Parker is one of the witches!!

      :)

      PS: for Halloween, I'm planning on watching some horror movies and stuffing my mouth with tons of candies. Sounds spooky enough to me! xD What do you think?

      Delete
    3. OMG, you're SO funny!! I hope you enjoyed the movies and all that candy!! Lol.

      To be honest, I don't like the horror genre at all. But I think the Hocus Pocus witches might be well worth watching. Hopefully, there will be some comedy in this movie. I'll be sure to check it out!

      Thanks again for entering the giveaway, and for your WONDERFUL comments!! <3 :)

  22. I had a few very memorable ones when I was younger. My mom would sew for me. One year I was a genie with a blue vest and veil and gold lame pants. Another year I was the Queen of Hearts, but not from Wonderland. And one year I made my own and it was probably the last time I went trick or treating: a bag of jelly belly jelly beans.

  28. When I was 11 I had no idea what to do for Halloween and no funds available. A friend just r3eturned from Korea. He brought back a Geisha dress and hair ornament. He insisted on me wearing it that night. His sister fixed my hair and did my makeup. I felt like a true Geisha "Princess"! I will never forget that generosity. I hated the night to end.

    1. Hi, Irena!

      I know of one religion in which the people kind of dress up in February -- Judaism. The holiday is called "Purim". But Jewish people don't dress up completely on that holiday. They only wear masks.
