I'm Late {White Rabbit from Alice in Wonderland Halloween Costume}
December 03, 2013
As my title suggests, I'm late on this post. In fact, I was super late for coming up with this Halloween outfit. I actually pulled this together the night before a party. Just like my previous Halloween costumes, I scrambled from my closet to find something I could pull together. And interestingly, I always ended up getting a lightbulb moment. I went with the White Rabbit from Alice in Wonderland.
Here's my ensemble for the look:
Of course, accessories also play an important role in this outfit. Luckily, I have a pair of rabbit ears and tail bought from a few Halloweens ago when I dressed up as a Playboy bunny. For those who don't already own rabbit ears and tail, you could easily find them at any dollar store and party store.
Then, I realized I'm missing the most crucial piece of accessories to complete the look. I need a pocket watch! I'm picky with my props. I need an oversized, vintage looking pocket watch to bring this costume together. So in no time, I decided to make my own.

I made the pocket watch out of cardboard and spray painted it in silver. This was the only colour spray paint I have sitting in my house otherwise I'd definitely paint it gold. I printed the face of the watch on a piece of paper and glued them on the cardboard. Then, I attached some random chain I found at home to it. And Voila! An over-sized vintage looking pocket watch for my white rabbit costume!
