NYLA : Mensae Bootie – Where Vintage Fashion and Halloween Horror Meets
By Vincent on Nov 1, 2009 in N.Y.L.A.
This Halloween, the blood red color is perhaps the most striking of them all. Vampires, ghouls, ghosts, and other spooky creatures that go bump in the night are the ones most captivated by this color. But don’t be afraid if you have the color on your wardrobe or accessories because they’re not attracted to it because of bloodlust, but rather envious of its vibrant hue because it’s so full of life.
If you’re planning to dress up as one of those creepy creatures and scare people in the neighborhood, nothing would be better but to scare them in fashion with the Mensae Bootie by NYLA. Its vintage appeal will easily let you dress up as a rotting Victorian princess, or go trick or treating as a gothic Red Riding Hood for a unique, twisted fairy tale look.
