Who wants to party with me?

I'm so excited to announce this year's Halloween party! Last year, I hosted a super fun All Hallow's Eve Blog Party, and this year I decided to change it up a bit. My favorite part about Halloween (besides decorating everything with ghosts and pumpkins) is dressing up! I can't really go trick-or-treating anymore...you know, being 23 and all...so I thought the next best thing would be a costume party. And THEN I thought, wait...how cool would it be if it was a blogger costume party? Thus, this fun idea was born!

I'm inviting all of you to come join the fun at the first annual Miss Indie Halloween Costume Party! It's going to take place all day on October 31st, and here's how you can participate:
On the 31st I will be blogging my Halloween costume, "outfit post"-style, and at the bottom of the post I will put a little link up tool. All you have to do is share your costume on your blog and then "link up" your post to mine. It will be visible at the bottom of my post with a little thumbnail and the name of your blog. This way everyone (myself included!) can check out your blog and what your costume is!

I'm also thinking about having a costume contest, where I'll pick a winner based on how creative/fun/unique their costume is and they'll win a giftcard to someplace awesome. What do y'all think, does a contest sound like a fun idea?

I'm so excited for this blog party! I can't wait to see how everyone dresses up, and I think it will be such a fun way to celebrate the day. I've already started piecing my costume together and just need to get a few final accessories. This is going to be so much fun! xo. Mandy

  14. I haven't worn a Halloween costume in forever and ever, but it would be so fun to see how everyone else dresses up! I think there should definitely be a prize involved!

    Who knows, maybe I'll even figure out a costume to wear and play along ;)

    I am so excited about this link up party! As a costume designer, I take Halloween pretty seriously and I am totally pumped to finish getting my costume in order this week. I'm sure it's going to be a great blogger party :D.
    Anyhow, I've taken a look around your blog and am very excited to be reading along. You get me, man.
