Highball Halloween 2014

So apparently I have fallen off of the face of the planet since Highball 2014! Well I'm about to try and play catch up during the rest of December!

So let's start with the reason I've been so derailed: Highball Halloween 2014:

This year I teamed up with Ashley Wills (Fellow Stella & Dot Stylist, Costume Designer & Blogger StyleOnHigh). She double majored at The Ohio State University while I  made it though my Master of Fine Arts. She was definitely the PERFECT teammate for me! She curbed my "more is more" philosophy with her keen editing eye & as a result of our excellent collaboration: WE WON!!!

Our "theme" if you will was "Dolled Up". The collection featured 3 ready wear looks: a ragdoll, ballerina & harlequin, as well as, our giant costume couture conjoined twins who had a puppet theatre for a skirt upon which played (can you guess?!) a ragdoll, ballerina & harlequin.
