Captain America: WWII Style

For trick or treating this year I decided the warmest options would be Captain America and more specifically the outfit he wears when he fights in WWII. 

The shield I made out of the cardboard box our futon came in and attached it to book bag I found at Walgreens for about $3

Next I ordered a navy blue shirt and a leather jacket (which I needed for the Fall anyway) and got a pair of mens khaki's. I painted the shirt to resemble Captain Americas top.

Last was the helmet. I had to hunt for that but after weeks of looking I found the perfect helmet in a costume store spray painted it blue and added a white "A" and my costume was complete.

Wonder Woman Part II....

One day 

while I was babysitting  my boyfriends nieces the youngest one, Aliyna, decided she wanted to play dress up. Well unlike most people my age I have a bag of dress up stuff, old costumes from halloween and things I used when I worked in retail during the Fall months. She was instanly obsessed with my old wonder woman costume I made myself a couple years ago. So we safety pinned and tie the top and the belt on her and she insisted on wearing my boots (a size 8, shes 4 years old) 

Mini Wonder Woman 

check the boots!

almost wardrobe malfunction...

handy tie work

The she took the Cleopatra dress I made and declared herself QUEEN OF THE SUPERHEROS !

So after a day of being Wonder Woman and wearing my costume to Bob Evans (including the boots) I told her if she was good i'd make her her very own Wonder Woman costume. 

Everything except the crown...

TaaDaaa! Mini Wonder Woman !

The she continued her "superhero training"

she was also hyped on cotton candy....
