Halloween is a time for fun. If you want to get into the more creepy side of the holiday, look no further than Edgar Allen Poe. Poe is known for creepy poems and crazy hair. Let's add some feminitiy to this classic, creepy look.
The first thing you need is a black miniskirt. Plain is fine, but I like the look of a textured skirt for this look. Next, add a frilly white shirt. Poe is known for wearing white shirts with detail at the neckline, so I exagerated it. Just a tip: wear a short sleeve shirt so you won't get too warm. Or you could wear a white t-shirt, and make a ruffle. On top goes a black blazer. It adds a little mystery to the outfit, and you'll wear it again and again. Black booties make sure the focus is on the rest of the outfit. Crazy hair is also important. If you have short hair, just mess your hair up. If you have long hair, however, it will be more of a process. I suggest curling your hair, then mussing it up with your hands. Apply some hairspray to keep it crazy. Makeup consits of a smoky eye, dark red lips, and dark red nails. This is the base Poe outfit.
Now we can add touches of your favorite Poe poem. I chose The Raven. To pay homage to this creepy poem, wear a gold raven ring and carry around a fake raven. To balance it out, put a pretty gold ring on your other hand. Quote The Raven all night! "Nevermore!"
