When you grow up in Church (as I have), you already know it’s not Halloween. It’s Harvest Night / Hallelujah Night or whatever, but I did take my youth group out to see the Madea Boo 2 movie.
Also, Chipotle always runs that $3 Burrito deal if you come in costume. This is always my incentive to dress up. My strategy is always to utilize as much of my wardrobe as possible, and purchase a few accessories to pull it all together. We already know that I have wigs on deck to aid my transformations (I chose to wear the “Inna” Sensationnel Instant Fashion Couture Wig).
This year I decided to go as SZA, specifically in her music video for Love Galore (I got this idea from Sophiology on YouTube). This was the easiest costume ever. To keep it appropriate for a teen trip, I did a simple black outfit (black off the shoulder top and a black leather skirt) and then wrapped butterflies from the craft store around bobby pins and placed them in my hair.
Also, can we talk real quick about the beauty of photographing pics during the golden hour (the hour after sunrise, or before sunset. The sun is higher in the sky, and the lighting is bombbbb)? I need to do that more often. It’s got my highlight POPPIN (I’m wearing “Everglow” from the Nikkie Tutorials X Ofra Cosmetics collab. It was given to me at GenBeauty this year), and my skin glowing (also in part due to the Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’R Foundation. I wear it in the shade 420, check out my review and demo video here)
S/O to my sister @sades_shots on IG for capturing this pics on her iPhone.
