Picture it. Seattle. 19🤐. Your favorite Saturday Morning Cartoon is Rainbow Brite, and your mother, a great seamstress (seriously - this is not an exaggeration), promises to make you the best Rainbow Brite costume... AND she freaking did!  I still can't get over the wig made of yarn and how poofy the dress was. What a night. I've never had a better costume! This, in fact, became a family costume as my cousin would wear it the following year. I think she might have won a costume prize! All that reminiscing to say, I hope you all are enjoying the magic of this night! 🎃👻

 

I recently took a trip to Seattle, my hometown. It was nice to be back there and to be able to do some of the touristy stuff you don't do at places when you call them home. My friends and I headed down to Pike Place Market, and in one of the cool, creepy, magic, majestic shops, I found this dude or dudette. The moment I believed they could have landed in Seattle all the way from Mississippi, I could not resist. I knew they had to come home with me. I'm still looking for the perfect spot to put them in my home, but boy, what a beauty! 😍
