Halloween Costume from your Closet: SO 80’s

Today I am sharing a fun collaboration with the beauty bloggers over at Elements of Fakery. We are sharing 3 Halloween looks that you can easily pull together from your closet. With the right hair and makeup the clothes we have just lying around can totally work for Halloween.

I actually forgot my leather jacket and had to borrow Camille’s Vero Moda faux leather jacket to complete the look. My inspiration for this 80’s costume was the Glam Metal bands (like Bon Jovi, Poison and Def Leppard). Big hair, high waisted jeans is so there. The lace top is a bit more Madonna and the make up is very Boy George but you get the idea.

To get a better look at that exaggerated blue eye shadow and angular blush click on over to Elements of Fakery. This is likely the heaviest and craziest makeup you will see on me! But I think it helps sell the whole look. That and the teased hair, which looked way bigger in real life.
