From secondhand shopping city guides to sustainable maximalist style inspiration, on my journal you can find tips to becoming more mindful with fashion.

The autumn setup really is the coziest. And honest The autumn setup really is the coziest. And honestly, pretty proud of this Yoda sweater I got from my baby sister's closet.
This year's Halloween outfit was so satisfying to This year's Halloween outfit was so satisfying to my mind's hunger for colours and creativity. The idea was to have absolutely every detail bright red to get this dramatic demon look. But do it sustainably!

🔴The red strappy dress is from my wardrobe, I actually made it myself about 7 years ago. 
🔴Luckily I also already owned red tights that I've worn for a few years around autumn and Christmas.
🔴 I used Smiffys Aqua Face and Body Paint to paint my face red. Also some red eyeshadow to touch it up a bit more.
🔴Heels were borrowed from my little sis!

🔴The lace head scarf was simply a piece of leftover fabric I found from my fabric box. Just added a velvet ribbon to tie it as a headscarf. I can see this ribbon becoming my Christmas accessory staple in so many ways!
🔴The red gloves came from a secondhand platform @shopyaga 🔴the red turtleneck long sleeve top I found from a local charity shop @humanaestonia 

The horns really started with a blue broken headpiece I found from a charity shop for 0.25€. I also had this golden crown headpiece at home and at first considered using it as the base to attach the horns to.
I just had to figure out how to make the headpiece red.

I considered spray painting the horns but that seemed messy. So I opted for a thick stretch fabric that I used to cover the horns. First, I used paper tape on the bright blue horns to make sure the colour won't shine through.

There was a little fail before arriving at this outfit though >>>

The long story is - about 2 weeks before Halloween I ordered a red dress from Vinted that matched my initial vision. But it arrived damaged with a stain. So I sent it back and was a little disappointed and ready to ditch the whole idea. That's when I remembered my own rule of mindful fashion choices - go check your wardrobe first! The strappy dress I had made myself years before saved the day.

Who should I become next time?

And as per my tradition - no new clothes were bought to create this devil's look (though, the morning of the event I was almost about to go and buy a readymade horns headpiece when the diy wasn't working out). Next post about how this outfit came about.
