Okay, you’ve got the kids covered and they’re all happy as clams, but what about you? Shouldn’t you get to share in the fun of Halloween? Of course you should, and you will. Now, what do you wear?
When it comes to adult Halloween costumes the sky’s (and your budget’s) the limit. You are only limited by what you can dream up and what you can fork over, so start dreaming!
There are loads of ideas for you to dress up this Halloween, and many of them are visible online. It’s really best to do your shopping for your adult Halloween costumes online as there is a great array of choices available, and you’ll certainly find something to bring a few smiles to yourself and others this year. Also, the prices and availability of the costumes are better online as well, and if you start shopping soon, you’ll beat the rush and get the best deals and costumes before anyone else.
There are costumes for almost anything you might dream up. From Biblical characters to the latest superheroes, you simply need to decide what you want to do. If you are a couple planning on doing something together, there are many great ideas. In a few minutes searching online I saw plug and socket costumes, Mustard and Ketchup, Dog the Bounty Hunter and Beth, Lock and Key couples, Ball and Chain and many more, just from one vendor. You also might get very creative and dress up as more contemporary figures right out if the news. Lindsay Lohan and her rehab Counselor come to mind.
In women’s adult Halloween costumes, the choices and many and breathtaking. While most of them lean to the sexy side of things, there are exceptions if you don’t want to dress up like all the girls you just saw down on the corner. Some of the more interesting choices I saw while briefly browsing include an Elf, Hula Girl, Mermaid, Medusa, Ghostly Victorian lady, Wicked Witch from Oz, The Virgin Mary, Marilyn Monroe and many , many more!
For men the choices range from things like Darth Vader and most of the Star Wars crew, The Hulk, Mad Cow, (as in disease) Tony Montana, (“Say hello to my little friend!”) Rameses, Vikings, Chick Magnet, Gladiator, Monk, Matrix Reloaded Morpheus, Grim Reaper, Month Python and an Outhouse, as well as many, many more.
Make sure you can move freely and aren’t going to bake in this costume. The last thing you want to do is be horribly uncomfortable all night while you’re supposed to be enjoying yourself. If your costume involves a great deal of makeup, make sure to get an early start and enlist some help if you need it, particularly if you’re a man. Most men need a little help in this area.
The most important thing to remember about your adult Halloween costume is to have a lot of fun in it. This is one time a year, so make sure you do it up right!
