I'm Michelle Cox -- the owner of Lipstick to Crayons. I’m also a Mom to three kids (a teen, tween and toddler), a professional writer (www.michellemcox.com) and a blogger (www.fromthemom.com). And I love to save money (and help you do the same) via frugal deals and steals, coupons and other thrifty practices. My freelance writing business allows me to enjoy the great balance of being a stay-at-home/work-at-home mom, while also making time for blogging, running (ran the Chicago Marathon twice) some amateur photography and scrapbooking. I’m a St. Louis native, although I have lived outside of the city and the state. A few of my passions are amateur photography, scrapbooking and attending kids' sporting events.

Great Selection of Halloween Costumes

September 10th, 2009 • Related • Filed Under

I’m going to give a shameless plug here to one of my site advertisers, but I promise, I’m not joking about the quality of their products.

elmo smallerCheck out how cute my toddler looks in this adorable Elmo costume!

The costume is from http://www.halloweencostumes.com/ and I am confident that she will outgrow it before she wears it out. Unlike so many costumes I’ve found at the those costume superstores that pop up in the weeks preceding Halloween, this costume has a study zipper, the seams are solid, and the face detailing is secure.  She will get hours of playing pretend and dress-up out of this baby.

Elmo sells for $42.99, which isn’t cheap. But there are other adorable costumes for as little as $18.99.

HalloweenCostumes.com sells infant, children, adult and plus-size costumes, as well as accessories and costumes for dogs. (My dog gets fed. She doesn’t get a costume. Don’t get me started).

If you want an enormous selection, and if you want to beat the Halloween Holiday rush, click on over and pick out your costumes here.
