best women's white dress shirt Ann Taylor Perfect Size 10 Made from cotton Women's White Shirts & Blouses

All these photos are just pre-blog family snaps taken just before the kids went out Trick or Treating so forgive the grainy, poorly lit quality (and the mess in the background!) The main things I learnt when my kids were small and dressing up for Trick or Treating are: In the UK at the end of October it can be pretty chilly so the costume needs to be warm

Length I had to take up as I went for a lower heel than planned by an 1nch - A good tailor will be able to take up the hem easily

It needs to be longer than my ankles

You could also use fresh herbs if you keep a little herb garden

Choose a traditional silk solid or regimental stripe tie that reflects your alma maters colors
