Halloween Costume Ideas

 Whether you’re getting ready for trick-or-treating or preparing for an extravagant party, coming up with a fabulous Halloween costume can be a challenge. Dress to impress this year! Take a classic Halloween character and turn it into a scary, sexy, or funny Halloween costume.
 Here are a few Halloween costume ideas to get you started:
  • Scary Halloween Costumes: If you’re going to attend an adult Halloween party, plan a scary Halloween costume. Visit your local party supply store and purchase a rubber monster mask. Find some old clothes in your closet and tear holes in them to create your ragged ensemble. For the finishing touch, buy capsules of fake blood and rub them into your clothing. Try not to scare away little kids or trick-or-treaters!
  • Sexy Halloween Costumes: Turn a plain, traditional Halloween costume into a sexy ensemble. For example, a classic witch costume can easily become a seductive outfit for Halloween. Wear a short black dress or skirt and add fishnet knee highs or stockings. Don’t forget your witch hat! Add accessories to the sexy witch costume such as black high heels, sparkly jewelry, and a fashionable belt around your waist. Brighten your face with makeup using black eyeliner, blush or bronzer, bright red lipstick, and fake eyelashes. Glue on some fake nails and paint them red for the final touch.
  • Funny Halloween Costumes: Create a funny Halloween costume to entertain the crowd! An adult dressed up as a baby is sure to be a Halloween hit. Purchase white material from your local fabric store, cut it in a large rectangular shape, and make a cloth diaper. Use safety pins to hold the sides together. Wear a baby bib, sun hat, and either suck on a pacifier or tie one around your neck. Apply makeup for red cheeks and baby powder for that new-baby scent.
 Have fun this Halloween party season, and be sure to pick a costume that makes you feel silly, sexy, or just plain old terrifying!
