Or "Horse-Riding Girl" works too! We are lucky to have such amazing items to choose from at our local Goodwill stores here. I picked up the Dressage helmet at the store on Belleview, but the store in Parker is horse-heaven. The Parker store had a helmet as well as numerous horse and rodeo related items.
We walked over to a barn near our house and shot away!
We left the tags on so that you could see the ENTIRE outfit is from G-Dub.
Black Blouse with bow $4.99
Harlequin Sweater $3.99
Helmet $5.99
(you could spray paint a bike helmet or cover a bike helmet in velvet)
Black pants $4.99
(you could use black softball/baseball pants or sweats even.)
I found these custom made cowboy boots at the store on Parker and Belleview. They didn't have a size listed, but they were most likely a size 7.
$12.99 (the splurge)
(too small for the model! ouch!)
We put this costume together entirely of Goodwill items, but you could always cut costs by adding things from your own closet.
I love that she looks adorable, she is modestly dressed, and that she could use any of the items later!
Goodwill Halloween Costumes work for me!

ReplyDeleteI love Goodwill (never knew it was nicknamed GDub, LOL) and Salvation Army. I don't have young kids to dress up, but if I did I'd sure follow your advice!
ReplyDeleteOkay, I just have to tell you what my word verification is. "Scari"! No kidding! Isn't that appropriate for a Halloween post?
Cute costume...adorable model...fantastic photos! Lovely post!
