Easy adult women's Halloween costume

It shouldn't be a surprise that once in a while, I cut a few corners. But c'mon, I can't be 100 percent all the time. Who am I? Martha?

Last year, I was pulled between school, life and making a Halloween costume. Guess which of those lost out. I still pulled something together--something that I think was pretty darn good. 

Here was my inspiration:

You remember her, right? She's Rosie the Riveter--the face of feminism and patriotism from World War II. I loved reading about her when I was in history class, and I figured there wasn't much that could be improved on. The girl is strong, sexy, smart and historically relevant. Plus, great conversation starter. What's not to love?

Here's my version:


If you're going to try Rosie for yourself, it's as simple as a jeans, a blue collared shirt and a red bandana. I already owned all three, so it was free. I also found that I felt prettier with earrings, so those went in. Sure, Rosie didn't have the time or money to accessorize, but I indulged.

Hope it helps!

  1. Maybe you don't know all the politic activities in my country, but I was looking for the specific image, few time ago. Is a little satire about PENA NIETO maybe the next president in MEXICO. And I found it finally here with you. It's amazing know something like this, She was Rosie Riveter, and I don't know her before reading your blog, thnks a lot.

  9. Heya! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any trouble with hackers?
    My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up
    losing a few months of hard work due to no data backup.

    Do you have any solutions to protect against hackers?
