(Semi)Wordless Wednesday: Costume Party

(Semi)Wordless Wednesday: Costume Party

The prompt for the Wordless Wednesday Linky Group this week is “Halloween.” I confess that I’ve never been a very big fan of Halloween, but at my relatively advanced age, I have grown to enjoy the fun of dressing up in costumes. These beauties are not mine–they were worn by Gwyneth Paltrow in Shakespeare in Love–but they wouldn’t be out of place at the RenFaire.
