Alix Earle’s Halloween costume is seemingly timeless!

It’s been three days since the social media superstar transformed into the Cheshire Cat for her all-outAlice in Wonderland-themed Halloween party, a committed costume that involved full body paint that she can’t quite get off.

When speaking with PEOPLE exclusively on thered carpet at the 2024 CFDA Awardson Monday, Oct. 28, Earle discussed the current reality she’s facing in the wake of her fairytale feline transformation — though she admits, it could be tough to “top” the costume in the future.

“I don’t know how we’re going to top the Cheshire Cat, but we’re going to have to,” Earle tells PEOPLE exclusively. “We started the tradition and I want to have another party next year. I had a lot of fun dressing up. I always love Halloween.”

“The Cheshire Cat’s gonna be hard to beat and it’s also been very hard to get off of me,” she continued. “There’s pink in my ears still… it’s been quite the process to get that one off, so it might quite literally still be around next year.”

It hasn’t even been a week since her all-out “Mad Forest” Halloween party, and the 23-year-old content creator is already looking ahead to her next big bash: her birthday. She described her “ultimate birthday bash” and put forth some ideas about how she’d like to celebrate.

“I love a good excuse to throw a good party,” theHot Messpodcast host tells PEOPLE ahead of her 24th birthday on Dec. 16. “I also love hosting.”

That statement surely rings true for Earle, who is already plotting party plans three days after hosting the star-studded, spooky soirée held at Keys Nightclub in Los Angeles. The invite-only event attracted A-listers including Nicholas Alexander Chavez, The Kid LAROI and Shay Mitchell.

“I feel like I was so stressed about Halloween that I haven’t given much thought into my birthday yet,” admits Earle, adding, “But that is next on the agenda now that Halloween party is checked off my list.”

As for what Earle considers her “ultimate birthday bash,” she keeps it simple. “Just as long as I’m with my friends,” she says. “I feel like with my friends we have a good time.”

“I haven’t gone to Disney in so long,” Earle continues. “I feel like Disney would be a really fun for a birthday.”

The creator kept the rest of her look super minimal, opting for silver Maison Ernest shoes and no bag on the carpet. She went for a very 2000s vibe with the overall look, though, and added tons of volume to her blonde hair.

In addition to Earle, other notable attendees include Kylie Jenner, Kelsea Ballerini, Katie Holmes, Suni Lee, Addison Rae and Teyana Taylor. Among the designers present are Christian Siriano, Tommy Hilfiger, Rebecca Minkoff and Zac Posen.

Erykah Badu, Michael Kors and Daniel Roseberry were among the recipients being honored with awards. Presenters included Anna Wintour, Blake Lively, Da’Vine Joy Randolph, Molly Ringwald, Storm Reid and Paris Hilton.
