Went to the Brisbane Zombie Walk today with my friend and DH. Although I'm not really into Halloween or costumes, it was very fun.
I spotted this tunic top when thrifting the other week, we named it the "failed tie-dye top". We knew it would be perfect for the zombie walk when I tried it on and the SA said it looked like a meat dress and was making her ill! Added some fake blood courtesy of the festival "splatterhouse marquee" and some shorts underneath to stop it being indecent. Was a great light costume to wear on such a hot day and I was really pleased with how it turned out.
There are other zombie walks around Australia this month, worth checking out to see if there is one near you as it's a very strange but fun way to spend the day! You can see more pictures I took on instagram here.
DH also managed to take a video near the start of the walk - you can see my friend and I in it too.
The sunnies were last worn here, and bag here. It's the first time I've worn the top, and the first time I've worn the shorts and thongs on the blog.

You're right, pretty strange but looks like it could be fun if you go with a group of friends!
ReplyDeletei actually like the top...i think it can pair with black skinnies without thinking of blood.
ReplyDeletehehe it can't now it's covered in fake blood and slashed up! :)
DeleteLOVE this! So cool and funny and aweomse.
ReplyDeletethat top is so perfect for this! It looks like so much fun :)

Ah, Mica, I love this! So much fun!
ReplyDeleteWHAT?!?!! How can you not be into costumes or Halloween?!?!?! I love dressing up!!!!
ReplyDeleteI was jealous when I saw these piccys on Instagram while I was stuck at work! Some of the costumes look amazing!! Was it hard to get the 'blood' off your skin? xx
It did take two washes to get off - the worst part was trying to get it out of my hair though. I had my hair tied back and wanted to mess it up to be more zombie like, but I should have tried that before I got covered in goo....haha.
DeleteSo many great costumes, it was fun to watch!
Thanks all for your comments - it was such a fun day! :)
ReplyDeletei had heard of zombie walks... but what are they for ? what do they mean ?
ReplyDeletethis Brisbane one is a fund raiser for the Brian Foundation of Australia, quite a novel way to raise money! It's also fun to get dressed up and walk through the city scaring unsuspecting people, haha! :)
