cat-call's halloween costume guide (the first)

This is for all you cats that don't know what you want to be for the much LUVed and anticipated h'ween that's around the corner...

Every week we are gonna post a couple of costume ideas to get you excited for Halloween. For those of you who are kind of lazy, these costumes are not going to be complicated at all. I promise. In fact, this series should PROBABLY be called:

cat-call's LAZY halloween costume guide (the first)

maybe you just want some inspiration, maybe you want 2 steal my ideas and pass them as your own. I'M MAKING THIS 4 U, MY BELOVED, feel free to take these ideas (honestly they're kind of horrible, which makes them amazing)

1970s

(National) Lava Lamp(oon's Animal House). WHAT. I mixed 2 things from the 70s to create ur dream costume. 

Basically, get a tie-dyed crew sweater and write COLLEGE on it. 

Then, wear a trucker's cap like this one:

or some board shorts like these:

THERE U GO BRO.

1980s

Want to tap into ur inner 1984????!? Channel FREDDIE MERCURY in the I WANT TO BREAK FREE music video. Could easily work as a group costume as well, someone dresses in drag, someone goes ABC style as some grapes, and the rest wear those weird body suit/paint things. Brilliant. 

1990s

EQUALLY FUNNY AND GROSS, wear a light blue button down and blonde wig, and smear fake blood all over your face. Maybe get a fake bird and carry around a romance novel. Boom. You're Fabio. 

STAY TUNED FOR MORE HALLOWEEN COSTUME IDEAS, and stay spooky!

Etsy Update!

I've been busy creating inventory for the store. It's still not quite ready yet, but I'm making tons of progress!

This is one of the designs I will be selling:

Of course, it still needs some work. But I'm expecting to open the store in a few weeks! 

Can't wait!

Much love,

JUST A GIRL

So, like- I'm totally obsessed with Gwen Stefani. Between avoiding school work by watching No Doubt videos on youtube, to belting out every word from Tragic Kingdom in the shower, I came across a gem while stalking Gwen's twitter:




UGH SERIOUSLY. Gwen is one of my biggest style icons. And Rear Window happens to be my favorite Hitchcock movie. I'm just so obsessed. I'm even more excited about this because I've been sewing so much for my etsy shop- I'm really into hand made clothes right now, I wish I had a prom to go to so I could recreate my favorite Gwen looks.

I'm gonna go listen to my No Doubt playlist. But first let's appreciate the dress on the cover of Tragic Kingdom:

Etsy Store Opening Summer 2014!

Hey Guys!

I've decided to get back into sewing- this time for REAL !

I'll be opening up an Etsy store this summer called "Bras By Meg" (that's me, obviously!)

I am sooooososososo excited! I just got a new Janome machine today, as well as some super cute materials:

I can't wait to start selling on Etsy. I'm trying to mess around with developing a brand. Last night I stayed up late making promo videos for my shop just for the heck of it. I have posted Chapter One on my personal YouTube account:

VIDEO HERE!! I couldn't get the video to pop up regularly, but I'll try to fix it!

It stars fellow Cat Calls blogger Jocelyn! I will be releasing more chapters throughout March and April and then I'll be releasing a final short film. Be on the lookout for when we post them!

Here is the logo again. The heart is supposed to be an "A" but the more I look at it the more I see an "O"

I'm totally cool with it being "Bros" by Meg though.

LET'S MAKE SOME BRAS!
