Costuming Eleven from Stranger Things

Usually I make my own costumes. But last year when planning group costumes for a Halloween cruise with my costuming friend Tina and my blogging besties Miranda from Spooky Little Halloween and Cheyenne from Sense & Serendipity, my friend Miranda was wearing Stranger Things costumes come hell or high water, and I offered to dress as Eleven with her. Because what better setting to wear a romper than a cruise?

I found the officially licensed costume on Amazon (socks included), and also purchased a pair of cheap Keds. I looked hideously 1980’s but we had the best time!
