Ringlets




Yay curls!  After teaching religious school today, I went to Wal-Mart with my dad and Ellie.  I hoped to find a Dorothy costume, in case I changed my mind about doing calculus instead of trick-or-treating...
But anyway.  In the costume aisle (yes, there was only one aisle left), I found a $20 Dorothy dress with pigtail bows.  Then I noticed the eight or so shopping carts chalk full of costume pieces--$2 each!  In one of the carts I found the very same Dorothy dress, minus the bows.  I hadn't been planning on wearing the bows anyway (I thought these curls would work quite well on their own).
So!  I got the Dorothy dress, along with four other pieces.  One of the pieces was just and odd white underskirt sort of thing, which I have on under the dress in the picture above.  Awesome shopping!

white bow headband : eBay costume
cargo jacket : Valley Thrift
black tank : hand-me-down from Ima
white floral skirt : eBay
black leggings : hand-me-down from Ima
1920s-esque mary janes : hand-me-down from Ima


Dorothy dress : Wal-Mart
ruby slippers : eBay (a few years ago)

The last picture is Ellie in her Dorothy dress, which is exactly the same as mine.  She got hers a week or so beforehand.
