WhatIWore: After powdering up my entire head for the George Washington costume, I could not let my newly white hair go to waste!   Onto the King of Fashion himself! The man behind Chanel - Karl Lagerfeld! The costume consists of:

• Chanel Inspired DIY Studded Vintage Jacket originally a gift
• Ruffled Blouse originally from ModCloth
• Black Belt (worn as tie)
• Black Sunglasses originally from Fred Flare
• Black Belt free from old job
• Black Leggings originally free from old job
• Black Boots originally a gift
• Measuring Tape from my sewing kit

For the hair I just took out the rollers and pulled all of my hair into a low pony, just like Uncle Karl does.

If I actually decide to go as Karl, I would probably also do a double C cut out in black felt, stablize it and stud it and then make into a pin for the jacket (just to drive the point home).

I have four costumes down and one to go… have you decided on your costume yet? Share in the comments!
