It’s almost Halloween and I still don’t have a costume concept for this year. Armando and I had been stepping up our couples costume game, but having a dog in the mix has thrown another complication with dressing up and we are still unsure if our costume idea is going to come together in time.
This costume is from 2017, but maybe we can reprise our roles as Mary Poppins and Bert the Chimney Sweep as we distribute candy to the neighborhood kids this year?
These costumes were pretty easy to put together, I’m planning on getting them up separately in order to share the DIY component for each costume, but I’ve linked some components below if some of these items aren’t in your closet. I borrowed my mom’s navy coat and handmade scarf while Armando borrowed the hat from my dad.
We took these photos out in front of South Hall at the UC Berkeley campus, which fit the building style from the Mary Poppins movie. We even hade some people spot us and asked if they could take a photo with us. That made our day as it felt like we really nailed our costumes!
Have you picked out your costume for Halloween yet?
