Hippie Halloween

I made Chloe's Halloween costume this year. I'm pretty pleased with it. I got the idea on Pinterest. I made bell bottoms by inserting a triangle of matching fabric to the legs of Chloe's jeans. I got that idea from my mom, who explained to me how they used to make their bell bottoms even wider-legged than they already were by adding fabric.

Chloe fits in really well in our town now!






Nobody knows hippies like Grandpa, DonDon...he attended graduate school at USC in the 60s.
