Tonight is my last training run that isn't an easy pace prior to my race. Does that mean after tonight I'm officially in the taper zone? Or am I already tapering?
Either way, let's distract myself from the fact that there are tempo paced miles in my near future with some Halloween costume chatter!
I posted in the W&D thread but I finally decided to get a "real" costume for the
MNSSHP on Halloween night. I had kiddo approval that Blue Town Belle was a good idea. I've wanted to dress up as her for some time now, but I hate hot, itchy, store costumes and didn't feel like buying a $200 one from Etsy. So I'm kinda disneybounding with an almost costume.
Bought this off Hot Topic. It looks like it'll be comfy. I plan to wear it with some black leggings or capri leggings or normal shorts depending on the temp that day. I'm tall so I don't pretend to think this will be appropriate sans pants underneath.
Two models...I'll probably look somewhere in between these gals. I appreciate websites that show stuff in multiple body types btw.
Let's hope it fits.
And because I had a $15 coupon and shipping was only $2....yeah I had to get the bow.
It may not match exactly but close enough. We'll see how it looks in person. (plus it has a chip charm!)
roxykiddo approved my outfit. Hubby is now on the hunt for a Gaston inspired look. Because kiddo seems to like Gaston more than the Beast and demanded it. Eventually she'll wise up to who the better "catch" is but I think she just has a crush on gaston.
So far we've got this one (which may need to modified with tan cargo shorts...because Florida)
and this shirt from Spencers which I find hysterical
And although we tried talking kiddo into being Chip...she's had her heart set on Elena of Avalor. So I went full
disneystore and got her all the accesories, etc. I have a FP+ at 5:20pm pre-party to meet Cindy and Elena so she's gonna be pretty pumped about that.
And yes, I got her the sceptor wand. And also this crown.
and maybe also this mini jaguar, Skylar
so she can put it in this minnie treat bucket that was $8 with purchase
So yeah....I spoil my kid and I like to shop and I'm giddy about our trip. At least I waited until mostly everything was on sale and I had free shipping codes. All that was less than the deluxe dress by itself at full price...JUSTIFICATION!
Also my Belle dress was only $30 something after coupon. JUSTIFICATION!
Now is it October yet?
