HALLOWEEN COSTUME// INSPIRATION

TWIGGY: HALLOWEEN ICON

TWIGGY: HALLOWEEN ICON by natalieoffduty 

TWIGGY:

-Miu Miu collar dress (see similar)
-Toga coat
-American Eagle knee socks
-Miu Miu mary-jane shoes
-BENEFIT BadGal mascara
Philosophy Candy Corn Shampoo

I gotta love my classic Twiggy ensemble! A little leather collared dress, fitted to perfection, a collar-less cacoon coat, some white knee highs, and a beautiful pair of magical mary-janes. I’d layer on that mascara like crazy before stepping out the door. The wider the eyes, the better. The cleaner the BOB, the BETTER. Oh, and what better than having your hair smell like candy corn before a night of trick or treating?! 



HALLOWEEN// WILLY WONKA

HALLOWEEN// WILLY WONKA by natalieoffduty

WILLY WONKA:

Marni blouse
-Valentino trousers
-Emporio Armani velvet coat
-CHA CHA’S House of Ill Repute custom top hat
-Karen Walker sunglasses
-Gucci men’s bowtie (similar)

Okay, is it weird that I’ve had Willy Wonka on my mind lately? Probably because I’m always seen around the city in my velvet duster of a coat, and button-down. He’s one person I maayyy just be for Halloween. For me, it’s super easy to re-create…and still roll out of bed to work in the next day. A gorgeous Marni printed blouse, high waisted beige trouser, and the raddest of all top hats! I’m obsessed with this burgundy hat…so scrunched and distressed in all the right places. The bowtie can be anything…I opted for this Gucci men’s bowite. Talk about CHIC.

BECAUSE THE NIGHT// PATTI SMITH

BECAUSE THE NIGHT// PATTI SMITH by natalieoffduty 

PATTI SMITH:

-The Row turtleneck
-Stella McCartney blouse
-Gitman Brothers skinny tie (similar tie by YSL)
-Barbour olive jacket
-Marni wool pants
-Vanessa Mooney cross necklace
-Givenchy black liner
-MAKE UP FOR EVER black cream eyeshadow

And now, my rock n’ roll lover, Patti Smith. Now, I don’t think I should be her for Halloween only because I’d look far too much like myself. A shaggy blunt bang, that perfectly loose, slightly unbuttoned blouse and skinny tie. She’s all about the men’s tailored pieces and that’s what I love about her. The classic turtleneck, wool trouser, and nothing else…just some black smudged around her eyes, and a little cross necklace for everyday wear. BECAUSE THE NIGHT.

This week, there are too many Halloween parties to handle. I think I’ll be needing about 4 costumes. This morning, I’ll be scouring Williamsburg for some sick pieces! This year, I want to go all out.
