Yo ho, yo ho a pirate hat for me!

Ok, so I'm writing a couple of posts tonight so I can catch up. 

Last week I finished my halloween costume which after debating for weeks what I would be turned out to be a pirate.

I wanted to make my own costume without having to make the whole costume.  So I thought about the things I already had like the brown tights, the black dress, and the black boots.  And I thought I could bring everything together with the corset and hat.

I got the hat and corset tutorials from Threat Banger.  The only thing is that instead of using leather on both like she did, I used brown felt for the hat and suede for the corset.  Plus I added some gold rick-rack on both to make them similar.  I made some cuffs with the leftover suede and rick-rack.

For my husband's costume I just bought him a stripped t-shirt from TJMaxx, he had everything else.  He refused to wear the white long sleeve blouses for his costume, lol.
