Tips to find your best Halloween costume

| | Comments (0)

Whether you're trick-or-treating, handing out candy, or going to a party, Halloween is the time of the year where you can look absolutely ridiculous and still have everyone comment on your outfit. Here are a few tips on getting a unique, inexpensive costume this year.

Go as something completely the opposite of you. For example, Tall people can try safety pinning a soft shoe at the knee of any regular outfit, so when they kneel, they look really short. Try finding your opposite using your looks, interests, or hobbies.

Make your "essentials" part of your costume. Trying dressing up as an over-the-top tourist and always have your camera ready.

Be extremely corny. Funny costumes are always the talk of the party. Duct tape a doll to your buttocks to become a "babysitter." Come in regular clothes with a quarter taped to your back. "Quarterback." Get it?

Pick the wrong holiday. Try going as Cupid or a leprechan and reuse your costume again.

Don't wear something too revealing. Even if a costume is slightly too revealing, all the extra makeup and accessories can make you look trashy. Try to avoid easily tearable materials as well. Remember, these days, anything could end up on the internet.
