Halloween Ideas

Totally stuck on ideas for Halloween?    Wanting to stand out in a crow of Charlie Sheens and Princess Catherines?  Well here are a few awesome ideas that will hopefully bring you home the big cash prize at your Halloween party.

The hipster



If you’ve been down to certain parts of Brooklyn recently you’ve probably seen the growing hipster epidemic.  For one day why not join them?  Take out your favorite flannel shirt and pair of chuck taylors for a truly authentic look.   And if you can’t grow a beard, how about trying the beardie?

Blossom and Six



After the Crayon, this costume was one of our best yet.  Pair your old Doc Martens with a quirky floral print baby doll dress that harkens back to the early 90s.  And don’t forget to find the ultimate Blossom accessory, the hat.  Get your guy involved by forcing him to do his best Joey impression by wearing ripped jeans, a flannel around his waist and a leather jacket.  Whoa that’s a good idea.

Bridesmaids

You know when they tell you you’ll never wear that bridesmaid dress again?  Well this is the year you can finally bring out that $400 frock for a second wear.  Inspired by one of the funniest films of the year, get a bunch of friends involved and make sure you have “Hold On” on your iPhone to help you make an entrance!



Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader Training Camp Candidate














Ok, so clearly we are filled with a ton of amazing costume ideas.  Thursday marked the first episode of the totally amazing “Making the Team: Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders” so celebrate try this twist on the classic DCC outfit.   Whether you’re a rookie or a veteran all you’ll need is a pair of navy shorts and either a hot pink or navy sports bra.  If you’re more modest (like we are) try creating a costume t-shirt using a Hanes classic white t-shirt some spray paint and cardboard.  Cut out “DALLAS” in the cardboard, lay the cardboard over your shirt, spray paint and let dry.  Repeat using a STAR for a true authentic look.  Luckily, the t-shirts come in a three pack, so if you mess up the first time, you’ll be able to try again. 

If it’s a little cooler where you live, make sure to pick up a pair of nude leggings to wear under you’re shorts. 

 
Occupy Wall Street Protester





















What to wear when you’re going to stick it to the man by yelling down on Wall Street? How about something comfortable yet slightly dirty?  You are going to be sticking it for the long haul.  Make sure to complete your look with some choice words written on your arm and a pint of Ben & Jerry’s.
