I was a coloring book for Halloween.
I got the idea for this costume from a girl I went to grad school with. Being a coloring book on Halloween is easy and fun. It is also an interactive costume. and who doesn’t love interaction??
To transform yourself into a coloring book you must:
- Leave your dwelling (house, apt, etc.).
- Go to the store.
- Purchase a white top and white leggings (yes, white leggings…).
- Purchase Crayola washable magic markers.
- Go home.
- Draw Halloween themed shapes on your white top and bottoms.
- Put costume on.
- Force your friends to color in the hollow shapes (by any means necessary).
- Tadaa! You are now a coloring book!
Here’s a full few of the coloring book ensemble
Me coloring myself.
Okay your turn… tell me what you were for Halloween!!

Stumble It!

Only skinny minnies like you can pull off the white leggings look and not resemble an unfortunate “who dun it and why” situation haha…your idea was super creative! I love it!!

I was a pig with wings… aka Swine Flew

That idea is genius, I love it so much.
Cute idea
I was a football player and Robert Palmer back up dancer!
That looks fantastic. Great idea. I love it. I actually went to a party where nobody dressed up so I didn’t wear any sort of costume. Just a pair of jeans and a David Bowie t-shirt.
Omg, that is so cute! What a great idea
HAHAHA! You are so funny! I love the idea. It is very creative and you look awesome in white! I didn´t get dressed up for Halloween. ;( I went to a concert though.
I left a couple of awards for you in my blog. You don´t have any obligation to pass it but I wanted to recognize how much I love your blog.

What an epic idea Clare! You’re so cute.
OMG Clare, you are too cute for words! This idea is totally unique and super fun! It also reminds me of the fraternity graffiti parties in college where you all wore white t-shirts and wrote on each other in Sharpies or highlighters for the black light! Was thinking of getting a white t-shirt and recreating that. (My Halloween photos will be posted later tonight- was a ‘sexy’ soldier as a last resort.) Hope you have a great week ahead!
