Happy Halloween: My Costume & New Dress

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!! I promised to show you guys my costume, so here it is!! Sorry the pictures stink, I have just been so tired lately so I took them fast :/ (and my hair had un-waved by the time I took these (stupid pin-straight hair ;) )
AND, on Friday we carved our pumpkins!! Everyone was done in a half hour...except me...it took me TWO HOURS to carve my awesome Draco pumpkin. My hands were killing me... What do you think, cool huh? (click to make larger)
I was also a bad girl and bought a Marc Jacobs dress on eBay on Friday night...BUT it was only $27.60 (20.50 plus shipping), as opposed to over $200 normally.  After some research I found out it is called the Quintana. I have also realized that I am WAY too obsessed with this color, haha...oh well.  And now I am over budget again...good thing I returned some stuff last week or I would have been way over :p (the

AND the shoes I ordered from DSW a few weeks ago finally came!!! :D YAY for $15 flats :)

    Your pumpkin is incredible, I'm really impressed! And you and your designer dresses for no dollars. Does your monthly total include shipping costs? I always find those a bit crippling!

    So much fun!
    I don't remember EVER having carved a pumpkin for Halloween in my life. Hmm... perhaps next year.

    P.S.
    I actually meant about the shipping from ShopItToMe.com... hehe.

    Net-a-porter is awesome, though! :)

    Whoa! That Pumpkin is serious art! You did a good job. Mine looked like it needs a dental job really badly and is not too happy about it either. But seems like you too had a fun Halloween. Great costume too. i have the same problem with my hair. It never keeps curls very well.
