Friday Finds, Dragon Costume Style: Masks and Arm Accessories

Halloween may have swept by like a bat out of Hades, but I'm already planning next year's costume. I had such fun at Gemz of Arabia's Haflaween belly dancing event at Circles that I'm hoping to attend another next year. Which means I need to incorporate a hip scarf into my costume so I can shake and shimmy on the dance floor. Thanks to an Amazon gift card I earned by sharing links through Crowdtap, I bought a sensational shining scale paillettes hip scarf in green to embellish a mermaid or dragon costume.

Since I already went splashing around Etsy for mermaid costumes, I dried off my wings and took to the skies. I had to circle around these leather masks and scaly arm accessories to get a better look.

Makeup Giveaway: All Natural Mineral Cosmetics by Madison Street Beauty

EDIT: Giveaway is officially closed. Congratulations to Rita Szlovencsák for submitting the randomly chosen 57th entry. Perhaps it's the hot weather and the drought in Delaware, but I have been daydreaming about being a mermaid. That's why I gleamed to discover the Etsy Blog's Mermaid Makeup Tutorial when looking through the list of articles where my new giveaway sponsor's products have shimmered. Madison Street Beauty has dozens of magnificent eye shadow colors that could enhance the sexy siren in any creature. One lucky winner will even get to choose five full size eye shadows, as well as a foundation, a setting powder and a blush or bronzer sample for free. Amethyst, an opaque vegan eyeshadow of medium purple, would be my first pick, fins down. Look at those sparkles! If choosing only five colors is too difficult, why not try some natural samples first? The owners, Bridget and Rhys, are currently celebrating their one year Etsyversary and offering an astonish...
