DIY costume: Danny and sandy from grease

So this Sunday was our big Halloween outing at our local nashville zoo called the ghouls at grassmere. My sweet boy was Olaf. But me and my husband wanted to dress up as well. Well it's no secret I have a sweet love for grease so I thought why spend money when I have everything we need at home to pull off the epic look at the end of grease! 

  

I already had leather pants from last year. And I took an old black top and cut the neck of it off so I could hang it off my shoulders. And I had some red shoes I got from target that are still available. My husband wore a pair of dress pants he had (you can also find then at goodwill)

And a black tee he had hanging around.

I think we did a pretty good job of nailing it. We had such a blast. And he was such a good sport about it. 

I got chills, they're multiplying
And I'm losing control
'Cause the power, you're supplying
It's electrifying!

You better shape up, 'cause I need a man
And my heart is set on you
You better shape up, you better understand
To my heart I must be true
Nothing left, nothing left for me to do

You're the one that I want
You are the one I want
Oo,Oo,Oo honey

And last but not least some photos of my little Olaf 

We had so much fun and can't wait for more fun to be had on Friday. 

Until we meet again-ASH

Elf matte lip color in the color rich red bought at target: 

This stuff gives me life. The color payoff is so good to! 

Sephora:

Glam glow thirsty mud hydrating treatment: I've been wanting to try this but haven't wanted to spend the money on it unless I know it's going to work! So I got a sample and literally with just two uses can tell a huge diffrence in my skin. It's freaking amazing!

Elizabeth james nirvana perfume oil: so I haven't hid my love for this stuff ha! It's amazing. And this last all day!
