Popular halloween costumes

Every year you can see some trendy costume that swarms past your door in droves. Many youngsters may be dressing up like politician Barack Obama, Mc Cain etc. Look for celebrity costume like Bernie Mac, George Carlin, Heath Ledger, Tim Russert etc. It is very difficult to convince your child to be something different when he wants to be a Batman and she wants to be Hannah Montana. It would be better if you allow them to dress up the way they want to, otherwise you may feel guilty later. This season some of the hot costumes for kids are High school Musical characters, Iron Man, Speed racer, Transformers, Harry Potter, Power Rangers and Chronicles of Narnia. Many youngsters would love to wear Twilight series characters. Some teens may love to wear Prom Night and other horror flicks. Popular couple costumes include Ketchup and Mustard, Salt and Pepper, Flintstones, Jet sons, disco couples, Adam & Eve. Couples can choose Ball and chain, Tacky Travelers, Indiana Jones characters, Batman and Joker. Regis and Kelly, Santa and Tooth Fairy, a sexy doctor and nurse, Dog the Bounty hunter character, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are all good couple choice as well.

Some funny Halloween costumes this year include Taco, Caveman, King Crab, Nerd, and Ninja etc. If you want to look vulgar this year you have a new range of costumes to choose from like Genie in the Lamp, Anita Waxin and Borat Mankini etc. This year wear a costume of your own style. You and your partner can go with a funny local personality, or as TV characters, or dress up like a ghost of your choice. Have fun this Halloween.

It would be nice if you celebrate environmental friendly Halloween. Challenge the kids to reduce, recycle and reuse. Some Green Halloween costumes like poke around the house, in the attic, in the basement, in the garage etc. can be worn by kids. Kids will have a great time going through the fashions of the ages and laughing till they ache that mommy actually wore a cowboy hat and leather-fringed jacket. In addition to recycled green costumes, families can think outside the plastic pumpkin candy box. Halloween is a great time to start learning to celebrate sustainability.

You can also dress up like Star signs.  Arians are born leaders so boys would love to look like a superhero: Batman, Spider Man and Superman. Girls would dress up like Batgirl or Catwomen. Taurus is very conservative. They don’t like attracting a lot of attention to themselves. So people who are born under this sign might choose: Batman, Bat woman, Pinocchio, Ghost, Vampire or Werewolf. Gemini’s are fun loving person. They can enjoy in any occasion. They can wear a witch, devil, mummy costume. You can dress up the way you want to in a Halloween night.

3 Cool Ways to Use Your Halloween Costumes and Stuff All Year

3 Cool Ways to Use Your Halloween Costumes and Stuff All Year

Halloween costumes are not necessarily just for Halloween anymore, especially when you’re talking about sexy costumes, Goth costumes, or party supplies. There are tons of ways to reuse those expensive items to extend their value.

My son taught me this lesson a couple of years ago. He was ten, and he had a real hankering to get a Goth or Punk costume, presumably to make him feel like a “big boy”…and of course, cool! I had no problem with this, and we set out to find the perfect Gothic look.

Let me tell you, there was no shortage in the stores and online. Goth was everywhere you looked. So he quickly settled on an uber-cool torn up red and black jacket with chains. It wasn’t the best made piece of clothing in the world, but it wasn’t the worst either. Next thing I knew, even though Halloween was still a month away, he was wearing it to school, getting tons of positive attention from his awe-struck friends. It was adorable.

The moral of this tale is – you guessed it – if you shop smart, you can use your costume for something other than frightening little kids with candy bags.

That whole ordeal got me thinking about other ways to use the great stuff I fall in love with in the stores every October. Since then, I shop for Halloween items in a whole new way.

Here are some examples:

Sexy Costumes

One of the most obvious alternate uses for costumes is lingerie. I’m sure we’ve all noticed the recent (and growing) trend in women’s costumes to be sexier and sexier. Many of the costumes border on indecent to start with, but even the less revealing or suggestive of them can be used in role play between consenting adults.

Popular ones include Catholic School Girl Costumes, Sailor Costumes, Alice in Wonderland, and variations on the Disney characters, like the Disney Snow White Costume. Seductive Vampires work really well too, especially considering the popularity of the Twilight series.

Wigs are also great costume accessories to use in love play. If it’s a high enough quality wig, you can wear it out for a night on the town as well.

Gothic Costumes

Take a page out of my son’s book and consider some of the various Gothic costumes and accessories for year round, if you’re into that sort of thing. They really pull out all the stops in October when it comes to stuff like that, and you can really find some neat items that stores don’t normally carry. Some of them are even of decent or good quality.

Chokers, spiked leather accessories, gothic belts, wicked-looking jewelry, temporary tattoos, platform shoes, boots. They always have quite a number of interesting jackets and dresses that can do double duty in your closet. And don’t forget the wigs! The key with using a costume in your wardrobe is to make sure you don’t get the same one EVERYONE is wearing for trick-or-treating, and to accessorize to make your piece unique. During this time, stores also carry a much bigger selection of things like unusual hair color and stick-on body and nail decorations.

Other Accessories

Another type of Halloween item you can re-purpose is party supplies and decorations. It may sound cheesy at first, but if you think about it they have some pretty neat products that, when removed from the rest of the whole Halloween atmosphere, can stand alone in a unique way.

You can really make a statement with the right gothic style glassware or serving dish. People also tend to produce a lot of Victorian pieces for Halloween. If you shop in the right places, usually online or in specialty Halloween stores that are only in business for a couple of months out of the year, you can find some pretty surprising things — lamps, dishes, serving pieces, curtains, chandeliers, trinkets, figurines, and more.

I hope this Halloween you will alter the way you look at Halloween items. Try to imagine them in another light. Picture what you could do with them AFTER October 31st. I’ll bet you’ll even come up with ideas I haven’t thought of.

This year’s Sexy Costume Recommendations:

One of the most popular (for good reason!) is the Catholic school girl costume.

For sexy plus size costumes, you can’t beat the ULTRA HOT plus size sailor costume!

Another recommendation: The right wig goes a long way! Sometimes, although we have perfectly nice-looking hair, it’s nice to take a step away from ourselves for fantasy’s sake. Wigs can be an inexpensive way to make a huge statement.

But make sure you get a wig cap. They are ultra-cheap, but can be the difference between a cheap-looking wig and a realistic looking one.

Halloween Costumes Are Fun For All Ages

  • July 22, 2010 3:20 am

Halloween Costumes Are Fun For All Ages

Halloween is not just a kids holiday anymore. Over the last 30-40 years, it has become more and more popular, with adults getting into the spirit as well as children. And of all the Halloween traditions, costumes are the biggest one for all ages.

Right from the time kids are babies, they’re getting dressed up for Halloween (although for babies the thrill is more for the parents than the kids!)

There are almost unlimited ideas for kids costumes, but the most popular from one year to another are the licensed characters from their favorite movies and TV shows. And usually the most popular is any character from the past summer’s biggest hit movies.

More tried-and-true costumes like pirates, witches, ghosts and aliens always work too. As kids get older, they usually get gorier every year. Fake wounds, scars and blood are common sights with older trick-or-treaters. And the less their parents like it, the better.

Grown-up Halloween costumes are getting more popular every year as well. There are tons of licensed costumes for adults as well as many of the old standby’s.

When adults get dressed up, they quite often like to stick to a theme – everyone at the party dresses according to theme or perhaps a couple will dress in matching costumes of some kind.

Historical costume like Renaissance or Medieval outfits are also popular with grown ups. Or “decade” costumes – flappers from the Roaring 20′s or a 40′s zoot suit.

One difference between kids costumes and adults is that adults often put together their own outfit, with more attention to the details. Kids are perfectly happy with a costume that you bought in the local drug store.

Adult costume can get quite detailed – something that would be right at home on a movie set. Costume makeup and high quality masks and clothing are quite common.

Costume rental stores can help with putting all this together. A high quality costume can cost a considerable amount of money and renting it might make sense, especially if you want to have a different costume every year.
