Happy Friday! It feels like October has spirited away and Halloween is already upon us. To celebrate, I bought a jack-o-lantern print shirt for Baby Bird at Target and she's been sporting that for the past week. I'm hoping to do some more late Halloween / early Thanksgiving decoration shopping this weekend to spruce up the apartment. In the meantime, I've been enjoying my LUSH Halloween goodies (see here), especially Pumpkin Soap. With the turn of the season and impending holiday, one will find a plethora of new products and creative ideas to look forward to in the blogosphere. Here are five such blog posts I enjoyed this week:
1. Makeup Magpie has a spectacular Halloween nail post.
2. A zombie and brains are on display at Makeup Withdrawal.
3. Making up 4 my age has pretty Halloween nails and gruesome fake wound.
4. Vampy Varnish has swatches of OPI Skyfall. I'm loving Die Another Day and Skyfall.
5. I love the sheep sweater (look at their legs) and red pairing in Atlantic Pacific.
Thanks for reading! What are your weekend plans? How are you preparing for Halloween this year?
Love, Dovey.

Your pooch is too cute! Not doing anything this Halloween weekend because I'll be flying from the US to Japan and I would lose a day. It's not a huge event at all in Japan but shops do sell Halloween products and costumes for those who are going to/throwing a party. I must say I'm blow away by how big Halloween is in North America - it's insane! But I love it!
ReplyDeleteHi Beauty Box, I hope you had a good flight! It seems like Halloween is mostly big stateside. I don't go out in costume myself, but I enjoy seeing the cute kids and decorations!
DeleteBaby Bird is adorable :-) I bought a Halloween shirt for my son's dog and he thought I was nuts until he put it on her. She loves it! She actually brings it to him to put on her before they go for her evening walk. Money well spent! This weekend we're hosting our annual Halloween party so the house is all decorated inside and out. Today will just be spent making sure I have everything ready.
ReplyDeleteHi Eileen, Thank you! It's so cute that she loves putting on the shirt; I haven't gotten Baby Bird to actively ask for clothes of any sort yet, but she loves the attention she gets due to it! I hope you had a fantastic Halloween party, it certainly sounds like it would be fun :)
DeleteHappy Friday, Dovey! I love your puppy!!! Not dressing up this year at all. I'm just too lazy (plus I have a new site/posts to work on)!
ReplyDeleteHi Sunny, Thank you! I'm looking forward to seeing your new site + posts :)
DeleteAw, that's a great picture! Baby Bird looks so cute in her new Halloween shirt :) Thanks so much for the mention, and I hope you have an awesome Halloween!
ReplyDeleteHi Makeup Magpie, She's loving it (mostly for the attention it brings). I'm already looking forward to next year's post :)
DeleteNo Halloween plans but hopefully I'll remember to stock up on candies. :)

ReplyDeleteI am not much of a Halloween girl so I only enjoy myself to see the cute pumpkin decoration. Your dog looks super cute btw :) I hope you enjoy your Halloween weekend :)
Hi memoiselle, Thank you and you too! I love decorated pumpkins, especially when they've got candles inside :)
DeleteMy pooch just freezes up when I dress him up . >•<
ReplyDeleteYou are so lucky ...she even makes pretty face for you .*-*
Hi Kate, Baby Bird does that too! Fortunately it's only temporary before she goes about he business.
DeleteThe guinea pigs (the girls at least) are jealous of Baby Bird's T-shirt.
ReplyDeleteHi Mopsy, haha! I'm sure they would look smashing in tshirts :)
