Little Red Riding Hood

Little Red Riding Hood! ♥
YAAAY! This is my second Halloween look and I freaking love this season!! I absolutely love creating costumes out of clothes in my closet because its not only fun but CHEAP! So if this year you're on a budget, I hope that this gives you a little inspiration to dig through your clothes to see what you can find!

And of course we can't forget about the Makeup! I had tons of fun creating this look and I think it turned out awesome. Super simple but can also be super dramatic.  I didn't want the makeup to be too crazy because I wanted the super RED lips to pop out against her pale white skin. I hope you guys have as much fun with this look as I did!

Now for the products used!
  • 26 BH Neutral Palette w/Blush (Any colors you have will work too!)
    • Taupe Color (All over wash)
    • Deep Dark Red (Crease; make sure to feather for a smokey look)
    • Dark Chocolate Brown (Define crease)
  • White Face Paint (I got mine at Target for $1!)
  • ELF Bronzer/Blush Duo
  • Red Lipliner
  • NYX Lipstick in Topaz
I wish I could tell you where I got my clothes but I don't remember! But what I did do was go to cheap stores like ROSS, Marshalls, TJ Maxx, anything like that where they have discounted clothes. Thrift Stores will work too!
  • Ruffled white shirt
  • Ruffled black skirt (Pencil skirt will work too!)
  • HUGE Black belt to pinch the waistline 
  • Black tights/leggings/stockings
  • Cute black flats
  • The red sweater conveniently had a hood so I used that instead! If your on the hunt for her real cape it shouldn't be hard to find at a Halloween store or Target.
