Hollywood goes all out for Halloween
As the photograph of Kim Kardashian's four children dressed up for Halloween popped up on our social feeds this past weekend, some observers either loved the tribute while others felt like the kids were too young to even know who they were dressed up as.
North (9), Saint (6), Chicago (4) and Psalm (3) were each styled as rap and hip-hop icons Aaliyah, Snoop Dogg, Sade and Eazy-E, respectively, photographed by Greg Swales.
Known for their love of dressing up for the occasion, the Kardashian-Jenner family went to town again this year. Kim's outrageous all-blue ode to Marvel hero Mystique was inspired by Jennifer Lawrence's costume while Kendall Jenner dressed up as Toy Story cowgirl Jessie, sporting a crop top with denim shorts and chaps (see below).
Other stylish stars have spent the past week indulging in the annual excuse to let their hair down and their inner ghoul out.
