Halloween has come and gone now all that’s left are the memories and photos. I had a great time Saturday night due however due to the high volume of tickets sold my sister and good friend were not able to attend. The event I went to was club BLVD 3 and they changed the name to be Black Peal for the night. The club was transformed into a pirate ship and had aerialist and stuntmen doing crazy sword fights and tricks all night long. The best part was seeing a live 30 person dance performance at midnight…it was pretty cool. As mentioned before I went as a cat, my husband was Lt, Dangle from Reno 911 and his best friend went an a convict with a huge Afro. I saw a lot of great costumes such as: Fred and Wilma Flintstone, Bonnie and Clyde, Gold-diggers, Lady Ga Ga and my favorite Iron man. Here are a few pictures from the nights festivities.

Have a fun and safe Halloween!!

I picked a name out of my fedora hat and the winner is….Doratee!! Please e-mail me your mailing information so I can send you your lovely scarf. Thanks for playing everyone stay tuned for the next giveaway. Happy Halloween!!

You only have until Friday Oct 30th to win a scarf I received from a fashion show I attended at the Palooza studios in Santa Monica. To enter all you have to do is leave a comment telling me (Trendqueen) what was your best Halloween costume (what did you wear in detail) I would love to know. The winner will be chosen at random and will be picked on Friday October 30th. The contest is now closed.

Next Saturday is Halloween and if your in the Los Angeles area it’s time to start thinking about where to go. Since I’m in the Los Angeles area I have a few picks for the best clubs for Halloween night. Most clubs will have pre-sale tickets at a discounted cost and you pick up your ticket at will call. When looking for a club to go to on Halloween the best thing to look for is if the club will have Halloween decor, if not then it’s just a regular club night plus costumes. Another tip would be to check traffic before you leave to party in Los Angeles this year. There will be street closers just like last year usually Hollywood blvd will be shut down for a few miles so I would advise everyone to take a different freeway oppose to taking the 101 North or South if you take it you will be stuck in traffic for a while.

Trendqueens top 5 clubs to go to for Halloween:

1. Playboy mansion

2. Boulevard 3

3. H Wood

4. Social Hollywood

5. Kress

Halloween is creeping up  fast so it’s time to think about what you will be carrying on your arm or shoulder that will match your Halloween costume Halloween night. The worst thing you can do is have a great looking costume and carrying your everyday bag with it. If your going to go ALL OUT with your costume you should at least have a bag/purse that matches. Over the past few years costumes stores have been making purses that actually match the costume you are looking for. For myself being a black cat for Halloween I’m thinking about getting a purse that looks like a bowl of milk or making a furry little bag to keep my ID and lipstick in either way it will match my costume to the tee. Here are a few purses I found that look really cute. If you are going to be a pirate this year here is a really cute pirate treasure chest purse it retails for $22.99. Also, if your going to be a sexy gangster or bank robber you’ll need a purse to put all of your loot in so here is a gangster purse that retails for $7.99.  Last, but certainly not least you will need a purse if your going to be a 1940’s flapper and here is one for $14.99. Stay tuned in next week….couples costumes.

I didn’t want to leave out my handsome men out there that love Halloween or that will have to attend a Halloween party because there wife or girlfriend said so. So this post is for you in mind. A lot of the men’s  Halloween costumes will be repeats from Halloween’s past. You guys could put your costume together so its more original however, you can only go so far in less you have a woman’s help (sorry but it’s true). My husband this year will be Reno 911 Lt. Dangle. He didn’t want to be anything scary as he was in Halloween’s past, he wanted something very fun and to get a few laughs out of people when they see him. The Reno 911 Lt. Dangle costume retails for $32.99. This year a lot of people will be dressed up as the late King of Pop so I wouldn’t recommend it in less you really want to but  you will be in a sea of clones. Another neat looking costume is The Wizard of Oz Scarecrow this is the first time I’ve seen this costume but it could have been around last year and I just didn’t notice it this retails for $46.99 this would be a great couples costume if you have a Dorthy.

Where has Trendqueen been you ask:

Last week was a crazy week for me, I started my graduated program at the University I attend and it’s an hour away from my home. Driving back in forth took a toll on me however, I’m very excited to start my new program and to compete it. With that said I did not have time to write a Halloween post this past Friday but be sure to check a new post out this Friday. I just wanted to give you guys a heads up on my where abouts.

As you know I’m going to be a black cat for Halloween. I’m contemplating if I should do my own makeup this year or go to the makeup counter (I love getting my makeup done). While looking around youtube I found a great video how to do your own cat makeup for Halloween. This has left me thinking I should do my own makeup for Halloween. Check out the video. Now all I need is the right purse and maybe a kitty collar more on Halloween accessories later.

As you may know I love, love, love Halloween not for what it represents but because I love to dress up in Halloween costumes. I have another costume look if you don’t want to look like everyone else, if your going to a Halloween party or club Friday or Saturday night. Two years ago I was an Angel for Halloween I wore a  White Sheer Marabou Babydoll dress from Frederick’s of Hollywood, wings with a bit of glitter, a halo and white fishnet stockings, white boyshorts, and white booties.  You could change the angel Halloween costume to a devil Halloween costume by buying the red sheer marabou babydool dress and red horns,tail,and a pitch fork. Now for the pricing the White Sheer Marabou Babydoll dress from Fredericks of Hollywood is $19.99 right now its on sale the angle wings I brought from party city for $9.99 and the Halo for $4.99 the cool thing about the wings and the halo is the marabou trim so it keeps the look in unison. The boy shorts you can buy anywhere just don’t get any with lace because it wont look right. You could wear any white shoes you could wear white tights or sheer tights with a shimmer that would look really cute be sure to wear all stockings under the boy-shorts. Remember Fredericks of Hollywood is having a sale of 15% off until the end of October.
