A Fabby Halloween: Mrs. Mia Wallace

FabSugar — Fri, 19 Oct 2007 15:00:22 -0700

Her name is Mrs. Mia Wallace. She has a penchant for vanilla milkshakes, winning dance competitions, and a certain white powder. Since 1994, when Uma Thurman played the iconic character in Pulp Fiction, hundreds of Halloween costumes have channeled Mrs. Mia. The look is easy: all you need is a straight-banged black wig, a white button-down, black bra, and cropped black pants. Apply a little red lipstick, and Chanel Vamp nail polish is a must - Mia did launch the color into smash-hit popularity, after all.

Don't forget, Mrs. Mia aced the dance competition with John Travolta's character Vince at the 50s-themed restaurant Jack Rabbit Slim's, so you'll need some groovy moves. Check out the movie clip I added below for inspiration. And if you end up talking to someone at a Halloween party you don't really want to be stuck with, you can thank the drug-addled Mrs. Mia for your exit quote: "I have to go powder my nose."

Bad-Girl Beauty

Sometimes beauty products can get a little girly, which is why I appreciate the occasional brands that tend more toward bad girl. Companies such as Too Faced and Booty Parlor are coming out with lots of cute and cheeky makeup and beauty products that are just a little bit naughty. These would make a great gift for a bachelorette or just one of your wilder friends. Here are a few of my picks.

Too Faced Quickie Chronicle: The Plaything of Passion, $25, available here. This pulp fiction-inspired palette includes one blush; three eyeshadows, and four lip glosses.

Booty Parlor Dust Up Kissable Body Shimmer in Punch Drunk Pink, $28, available here. This brand specializes in everything for the bedroom, from this scented dusting powder to sex toys.
