October Coordinates

October means Halloween, and Halloween means themed coordinates, right? I had a couple of opportunities to dress up this month, and definitely had fun taking advantage of the ability to do themes and get a little more costume-y than usual.

Read on for three outfits and their breakdowns~
I did a casual Classic outfit to run errands and meet up with one of my friends for lunch--we were scouting out potential meetup places, and found a great brick toast restaurant!

October is also when the Disney Lolita Day occurs! Much like Dapper Days, we all dress up and hang out at the park together. This year I put together a Disneybound Jack Skellington coordinate with my new JSK. (Photo courtesy Eclectic Cutie.)
