Western was the perfect theme for October because you could take it as costume-y (think cowgirl) or as casual as you liked! I think with the right makeup my outfit is giving scarecrow vibes. Remember when cutesy scarecrows were all the rage for Halloween a few years back? Continue reading “Western-Inspired”
