The Theoretical Shopaholic

More Halloween fashion from citizenvintage:

Love Story

Channel the sweet sophistication of Ali McGraw in the film adaptation of Erich Segal’s 1970 novel Love Story. (Vintage convertible and ivy league boyfriend optional).

But seriously, how dead on is this? And perfect for those freezing Halloweens (aka all of them in Montreal. My whole childhood, cool costumes covered up by parkas).

Wool trench, leather boots and red beret all available at Citizen Vintage!

Love love love what Montreal shop Citizen Vintage is doing for Halloween – putting together eerily accurate costumes inspired by Hollywood movies. Not only will you look both in character and fashionable, these pieces will work in your wardrobe well after October 31. (Unfortunately, the same can’t be said about your sexy Marvin the Martian costume. Also, what?)

Heathers

Group costumes are always fun for halloween! Heathers is one of my favourite teen movies particularly because of the awesome outfits Veronica and the Heathers wear! All you and your friends need to achieve the Heaters look are some cropped blazers, plaid skirts, bright coloured tights, and a croquet set!

I’ve gone as a Heather for Halloween. And yes, I was red.

Day 6 of the 7 Days of Vintage mega sale. Did I promise myself I wouldn’t buy something from another vendor as I was trying to purge, not acquire, clothing? Yes. Did I buy something anyway? Yes. It’s a Gunne Sax dress that makes me look like an unholy cross between a medieval maid and an Oktoberfest waitress. It looks like something that starts as a Halloween costume but then somehow makes its way into your regular rotation.

Anyway, if you haven’t gotten to the sale get there now! It’s on until 7 tonight, then starts packing up around 4 tomorrow. And word is, while the sale’s been crazy busy, there are a few gems left!

UPDATE: Looks like almost everything left in the shop is going to be 50% OFF ALL DAY! Get in tomorrow before 4 p.m. before it’s all gone (go on your lunch break if you have to. What am I saying? Jeanne Mance park is perpetually full of you people! Where do you work? How do you live? Go buy vintage!)

This mask from Ghost World is like the opposite of an impulse buy. Something you see somewhere and want for years, waiting until you find a way to actually buy it from someone, somewhere. And yes, I’ve checked in sex shops. I am in Montreal, after all. No dice.

Maybe I’ll have to settle for this copy of Enid’s raptor tee.
