{halloweeny inspo + a bday wish + blog love}

it's settled...
i'm having a halloween party, or more of a dinner party. we have a few party pooper friends {that i adore of course} that seriously won't come to a party if they have to dress up. so this usually works out for everyone. i let everyone know they don't have to dress "up" but can dress "festive"... this also means i get to wear a crazy fun outfit {if it weren't for the looks i'd get, it would be something i'd want to wear on a normal day}, glue on some fun fake lashes, and put something big and beautiful on my head, like a hat... or something with feathers and rhinestones:)
i already have a fall theme going on in the house, and would really hate to have to take it all down and replace it with halloweeny stuff... i found this image though which pretty much solves my problem! kinda half fall half halloween, right? i love it. i almost have all the goods to create this look which is a plus.
pumpkins+gourds+black+glass+labeled jugs and bottles with mysterious liquids {aka booze}=fabulous dinner party!
