I'm Roaming

Hat, suspenders, collar, and felt flowers: Via Target toddler costume
Shirt: thrifted
Belt: Thrifted
Shorts: hemmed thrifted pants
Socks: target
Boots: vintage via eBay

"Sexy" is not really my halloween style. I prefer to take my last minute costume inspiration from the kids' section. See: tiny toddler garden gnome costume
I was often referred to as a little German girl, and my counterpart/boyfriend/gnome was often called a lumberjack. A few people got it though. Bonus points to the strangers that yelled Travelocity at us all night.


It's you may call me tipsy the falling over drunk gnome Sunday,
XO Robyn

  2. You look amazeballs! Love your costume, it's way sexier to look cute than overtly slutty. ;-)

  3. Your costume is so cute! I too like utilizing children's costumes, last year i made my costume from a thrifted baby unicorn jumper. (They are also usually way more affordable too!)

    I love gnomes. I have one special green one in my yarden.
    I also used to maneuver all the gnomes in the neighborhood around my cabin, at night. And keep move them down the street and arrange them, as if they met to converse.
