Erin Gilmore, the new Kat Von D

With Halloween behind us and Thanksgiving over the horizon it seems as if candy overload and fall feasts will never escape us. I for one ate more candy than I thought imaginable, not saying I didn't love it, and now I am preparing myself with turkey eating pants. Halloween was a success I cant say I got the style award, my outfit consisted of a yellow construction paper symbol of batman and a trash-bag as a cape. My room mates however definitely took the creative and stylish awards for the weekend dressing up as a box of Franzia, Kat-Von-D from Miami Ink, a Nuva Ring girl, Barbie, and Alex from A Clockwork Orange. Throw in batman and you've got a unique looking group of gals, pictures will be posted later. 

This past weekend got me thinking how creative the concept of Halloween is and how good people look when they are stepping out of the norm. My room mate Erin for example, dressed up at Kat-Von-D, if you don't know who is she, she's the former Miami-Ink then turned LA-Ink tattoo artist. she has tattoos all over herself including hands, neck, and face, and can rarely be seen without crimson red lipstick on. It's  a hard look to pass off but my room mate nailed it, making it seem as if she too should have stars above her left eye. I will post a picture later, but my room mate was as close to identical as you could get, and she looked as if she should normally have tattoos everywhere and vixen style makeup. Halloween in general just makes me think that people should step out of the norm and experiment every now and then, they might find something they like.
