Well, this Saturday I'm going to be a Zombie for the Zombie Walk.  I have a party on the 29th, but I'm not sure what I want to be then.  I have several options.  I never buy a costume, but instead prefer to hit my closet or the thrift store for inspiration.

I have actually been pondering if I might dress up this year.  It is one of the first year's that I feel that I could dress up.   I know they make plus sized costumes but that would have just drawn more attention to the fat chick so I never wanted to dress up before. 

I don't think I can pull off "sexy" yet, however.  I actually found myself checking out Fiona costumes because I love her, but then I thought really?, the first year you can dress up and you want to be a chunky green ogre?   

So now I am thinking perhaps something like this:

Or just embracing my inner goddess with something like this...notice how it looks like it will had the bat wings (which you would think would be handy during this time of year but not so much)

You wear either of those and you ARE pulling off sexy! Very pretty!

Sad thing is if I really did this and went out in public I am sure someone would get pissed that I was making fun of fat people.

Huh? Halloween? You mean Halloween is this month????

Kidding. I've been so busy with the Holiday Food Tasting events and my babygirl's b-day (Oct. 23) that I haven't had time to contemplate what I will be. The kids have their costumes already though.

La Petite Diva is being a vampire Clown

(don't say it...I'm already thinking it...)

Your baby girl's bday is a scant two days after mine and on my wedding anniversary! As long as the kiddos are done, you are golden.

I think you should go as a blogger turned fabulously wealthy entrepreneur (who happens to like to shower her friends with absurdly expensive gifts!)
