Halloween is one of my favorite times of year! I love the weather cooling off and the leaves changing colors. This year Jack and I decided to go to Halloween Disney to celebrate this favorite time of year. Halloween Disney is the only time they allow adults to be in costume at Disneyland and of course it's me so we needed costumes or it wouldn't be as much fun. I had a hard time trying to decide on what I wanted us to be, I needed to consider that we would be walking around for hours and riding rides. The costumes needed to be comfortable or both of us would of been miserable. In the end we went as Mary Poppins and Bert. We tweaked the costumes to be a little more modern and therefore a little more comfortable. See below the description on what we wore and how I made my perfectly perfect Mary Poppins hat!
Bert:
Long Sleeve Blue Shirt
Grey Pants
Beret (newspaper boy hat), found on eBay
Red Scarf, I made from a piece of red fabric
Black comfortable shoes
Mary Poppins:
White Polo Shirt
Long Navy Skirt
Red bow tie, I made from red ribbon and a safety pin
Black comfortable flat Mary Jane's
Black straw hat with cherries and daisies
To make Mary's hat, I bought a small black straw hat on eBay, some small white daisies and fake cherries from the craft store. I found a close up picture of her hat and matched the placement of the daisies and fake cherries.
