Okay, I made that up. Maybe it was more of a high five.
Obviously now, Katniss Everdeen is the well known character of Hunger Games, the movie…and this post has been getting quite a few hits. Why? ‘Tis the year of the Katniss Kostume!
So I figured I’d break it down for y’all.
-The jacket is the only piece I actually owned. I bought it in 2007 at Nordstrom. Obviously a more accurate one, based off movie Katniss, would be some sort of black windbreaker.
-Mockingjay pin I ordered with a book set from Scholastic. They are all over the place now. Hot Topic perhaps?
-Shirt, pants, and belt are from a little mall boutique. Something along the lines of Agaci or Forever 21.
-Boots are Guess from a department store.
-Bow and arrow are from a costume warehouse – Frankel in downtown Houston.
-“Dirt” is brown eyeshadow.
-Hair…mine. Those are some mad crazy side braid skills, eh?
That’s the gist! If you decide to be Katniss for Halloween, may the odds be ever in your favor.
Sorry, I had to. ๐

Wow, you are so ahead of the times doing Katniss last year! Your costume looks great too.
I actually prefer the leather jacket to the windbreaker. I think this costume is Katniss before getting in the games like just happily hunting in the woods with Gale. ๐ Very nice job! I really do love this costume. Makes me want to reread the trilogy again! ๐
