Making Your Halloween Wishes Come True

Oh, Halloween. That time when you sweep the cobwebs from the corners of your house to put up fake spider webs and plastic spiders in their place. A time when you look forward to shopping for the perfect costume to wear to all the parties that you've been invited to. Or, if you're like me, a time when you start gathering all the thrift store finds that you've collected throughout the year to creatively put together the costumes for your children who are eagerly awaiting the night where they are allowed to go up to perfect strangers and gather a horde of candy to eat for the rest of the year. Yup,that time is rolling around. Again. I have been busy, as always, this time with new ventures on my plate, and realized that I have yet to put out a line in time to enjoy it for the season. It dawned on me: I absolutely NEED to get a jump on certain seasons. So, why not use Halloween as the time to put out a couple of somewhat "seasonal" Dannas out, even before October arrives? Yes, the word seasonal is in quotes. Why? Well, to those who aren't into psychobilly or into things that are a little "dark", people tend to see the Dannas that I've put out as being something they'd only wear during the Halloween season. So, with that said, here are two prints that I've actually had in the line since 2010 (I know, right?!) and one that I'm so proud to introduce to you. Why only three prints for the season? The other two ventures are keeping me busy.
The first one is our Tiger Stripes Danna. I won't go into detail as to why it got it's name, seeing as to how it's completely obvious. I thought the orange was perfect for Halloween, others may just like it because they love tigers. What ever your reason for liking it is, we hope that it tickles your fancy.
Then there is our Swanky Hearse Danna. I am telling you, this fabric is hard to find and I can totally see why. It's so cute with all the bright colored hearses driving around on the black background. There are even little coffins here and there falling out of the back of a few! A little macabre? Maybe, but the artwork is cartoonish, so I think it makes it look adorable. Don't judge.
Last but not least is......drumroll please........Kitty Eyes Danna! It's so basic but it is currently my favorite. Yellow cat eyes are peppered all over the black fabric. I will admit, I thought the eyes were going to be glow in the dark, so I was triple excited. After holding it up to the light and then running to my son's dark room to see if my hunch was correct (yes, I literally ran like an excited little school girl)I came to the realization that it was not glowing. Boo! But that's ok, it's still cute and it's still my favorite. For now. Until I find something that I absolutely NEED to put out for the masses to get their hot little hands on. In case you're wondering how to actually put one on, here's a tutorial I did which will show you the basic hairstyle you can wear while sporting a Danna. Happy viewing and as always, happy shopping!
