Get Halloween Ready with a Wig

This post was sponsored by Divatress. Thank you for supporting the brands that support me. 

Wigs are a great way to change up your entire look. It’s an easy way to try out a daring style without the commitment. Or get those long tresses without having to wait years for your hair to grow out. I also love being able to try different hair colors by wearing a wig.

Halloween is coming up soon and it's one of my favorite times of year to pick up a new wig to go with my costume. There is something that pulls a costume together about having a coordinating wig. Plus, they are just really fun.

What are you going to be for Halloween this year? Are you just starting to think about the holiday where you can dress up as whatever you want? I guess you could really do this any day, but there is something about Halloween, that just gives you the perfect excuse! I haven’t exactly decided myself yet. BUT I do have some ideas for some Halloween makeup looks that a wig would look fabulous with. I can’t believe how quickly Oct. 31 is coming up.

I’ve pulled together some different wigs with ideas for Halloween costumes below. Feel free to browse for inspiration and let me know what Halloween costumes you are considering in the comments. 

This Motown wig is perfect to hit the stage in a sparkly dress

Universal Standard Pop Up Event in Portland, OR

Universal Standard had a pop-up event in Portland, OR on September 16. I stopped by to check out the designs that are all created to flatter the curvy figure. I was excited about this brand when I heard about it earlier this year on the Today show. Honestly, I was absolutely stunned when I tried on some of the pieces. These are all investment type pieces - they are not cheap. But almost every single piece of clothing I tried on was ULTRA comfortable. The green sweater dress? It feels like you are wearing PJs, but you look pulled together and ready for a professional event or night on the town. The black dress is on my wish list. It's $160, but literally the perfect little black dress. Small details like slightly curved seams are all designed to flatter your figure and you feel completely comfortable while looking stylish too. I only tried on the jeans because I needed something to wear with some tops that I picked out and I was absolutely blown away by the fit. They are the MOST FLATTERING jeans I have ever worn. They hit just right at your waist pulling in your stomach and actually lengthen your legs. The indigo is super dark blue. I ordered the indigo jeans and the distressed black, which looks like a grey. The jeans were $90 each and high quality. I also love the cutaway tee (cream). I was going to order it in black, but it's currently backordered. They are also doing a model contest at their pop-up events, which I, of course, entered. It's been a long time since I've been this excited about a new clothing line! I definitely plan to add some other pieces from Universal Standard to my wardrobe.

Sizing information: The sizing is different than other clothing. I wear a size 18 normally. I wore a size 16 Long for the jeans as they run big. For all the other items, I wore a Medium in Universal Standard sizing.

Victoria Beckham for Target - Black and White Sweater

I love this classic sweater from Victoria Beckham for Target. The texture makes this sweater unique while the colors make it versatile. It's supremely comfortable.

For this look, I paired the sweater with a pair of Quacker Factory Dream Jeannes in a dark denim. The crops are out of control comfortable. They would be perfect for a warm summer day and they even have pockets!

For makeup, I used Too Faced's Sweet Peach palette -- it really does smell like peaches to create a more natural look. We had a local bloggers event and I got new head shots taken so I wanted a more timeless makeup look. I'm wearing KiKi from the Kim Kardashian West collab with Kylie Cosmetics. It's my favorite color from the set of four lipsticks and the most pink one. I'll have a makeup tutorial on this look on my YouTube channel soon.

My purse is an adorable Kate Spade (similar) with a big bow,  but you can't see it any of the photos so you'll just have to take my word for it. I've been using this purse because it's a little smaller and lighter - perfect for spring!

I love my pedicure - black with silver sparkles so I had to include a photo. Also, the wedges are Earthies. I guess this outfit is just all about being comfy. :)

I hope you enjoyed this fashion OOTD post. I haven't been doing as many style posts, but I'm happy to be getting a few back on the blog. I'm definitely focusing on my beauty content and getting a video posted at least once a week. It's also helpful because my mom is back in town and was able to take photos for me. We're clearly amateur photographers here, but I liked these photos. By the way, if you like the Victoria Beckham for Target sweater it's on sale now and quite the deal. I wish I would have gotten it for the current price.
