Friday Finds, Mermaid Costume Style: Tails for Adults and Kids

As a child, I had a reoccurring dream where I dived off the Chesapeake Bay Bridge and transformed into a mermaid with an iridescent rainbow fin. My sleeping dreams aren't as vivid anymore after I wake, but I do daydream about sea creatures and underwater kingdoms. I've drawn my visions into reality, but have yet to dress up as a mermaid.

As you may have noticed from my past Jem, Catwoman, Zombie and Pirate Friday Finds, I hope to net a new Halloween costume soon. I have been luring ideas out of the Etsy ocean, and this week I hooked handmade mermaid tails for sale. Several styles splashed out of the waves for females of all ages, from sexy sirens to adorable toddlers.

    I like the detail in costume #2, though the tail in costume #1 is pretty neat for an adult!

Perhaps it's the hot weather and the drought in Delaware, but I have been daydreaming about being a mermaid. That's why I gleamed to discover the Etsy Blog's Mermaid Makeup Tutorial when looking through the list of articles where my new giveaway sponsor's products have shimmered. Madison Street Beauty has dozens of magnificent eye shadow colors that could enhance the sexy siren in any creature. One lucky winner will even get to choose five full size eye shadows, as well as a foundation, a setting powder and a blush or bronzer sample for free. Amethyst, an opaque vegan eyeshadow of medium purple, would be my first pick, fins down. Look at those sparkles! If choosing only five colors is too difficult, why not try some natural samples first?
