Halloween Costume Ideas


One of the best dress up games of all time is right around the corner. Halloween is a terrific opportunity to try out different styles and designs as well as flex your creative muscle. This year, try something new for a costume. Consider:

Political Figures – Just think of how much fun you could have dressed as Barack Obama or Sarah Palin. I guess John McCain might be an amusing choice as well.

Movie Characters – Cheetah Girls, Bratz, Camp Rock, High School Musical and more are great places to get ideas.

Freaky Factors – Opt for the freak factor with something edgy and gross. A realistic mask or special effects on your face can make things look wickedly real and possibly freak out a friend or two.

Cartoon Characters – Don’t let the younger crowd monopolize the fun cartoon characters. Go for traditional princesses or animal friends, or opt for the less well known anime characters that you know and love.

Off the Wall – Finally, pick something this year that is totally unexpected and off the wall. These costumes take a lot of creativity, but when you land on something great like a purple pillow case turned into a raisin, you know you’re planning something terrific.
