George Bernard Shaw stated a universal truth when he talked about the fact that men of the earlier days worshiped idols that had been made from gold and silver while people in the modern age worship fervently gods of flesh and blood.

How to Choose Halloween Costumes for Kids

Sunday, September 26th, 2010

If you’re on the lookout for good Halloween costumes for kids, here are a few simple pointers. First, ask the children themselves. Costumes don’t have to be scary. Are they more attracted to Harry Potter, Marty McFly or E.T?

Make sure that they’re dressed as someone who interests them. Do they like ‘Star Trek’ or ‘Star Wars’? There’s a big difference between Chekov and Luke Skywalker. Are they fans of ‘Doctor Who’? If so, there’s a wealth of doctors and monsters to choose from, that would make perfect Halloween costumes for kids.

If they’re more interested in a scary kid’s costume, consider the monsters and villains that their heroes have been battling. Indiana Jones films are full of ideas. Get children to ask themselves, “What frightens me?” That’s as good a place as any to start from when trying to choose a kids Halloween Costume.

Dressing Up Your Dog in a Dog Halloween Costume; Good Idea or Not?

Sunday, September 12th, 2010

No one can really answer that for you. It depends entirely upon the dog. Some dogs hate it for one reason or another. Some don’t like the odd feeling of having “clothes” on that they are not used to. Even if you manage to get the costume on, they will spend time trying to bite at it or tear it off in some other way. There is just no sense in making your dog suffer the aggravation if they don’t like the feeling. In most cases, they will not “get over” it or get used to it.

On the other hand, some dogs really like the feeling of security they get from being “bundled” so to speak. Some breeds, like certain terriers, were bred to burrow and they like the feeling of being under a blanket or even in the sleeve of your coat. These dogs will love being dressed up in a dog Halloween costume.

You may think you already know if your dog will like being dressed in a costume, but you could be surprised. If you have never dressed your dog, you should probably try doing something like putting an old t-shirt over their head to see how they react. At least you will know before you invest in a dog costume.

A quality dog Halloween costume will be designed to get on and off your dog with relative ease and to be safe from any potential hazards that may get your dog into trouble, such as items that could get on something around the house.

Dressing our dogs up for Halloween is fun, especially when there are several dogs or when the whole family dresses up in a theme, including the dog. There are costumes readily available for doing this as there are dog Halloween costumes for superheroes, TV characters, pirates and many many more.

The bottom line is that even though it’s nice to include our dogs in the Halloween celebration, what was intended as a happy time can be unpleasant for your dog. Make sure your dog won’t be so uncomfortable that he or she will be unhappy.

How Can Toy Story 3 Halloween Costumes Bring Your Family Closer?

Monday, August 30th, 2010

Many times the kids get on their costumes and go on their way to go from house to house in the neighborhood. Of course they’re instructed where they can go and how far they can go. If we know all the neighbors we let them go by themselves or sometimes we walk along with them and stay out on the street. We go home and go through all the candy, making sure it doesn’t look suspicious, then tell them how much they can eat and how much to put up for some other time.

Of course some neighborhoods have block parties or house parties and the adults sit around and talk while the kids are off together with one or two of the assigned parents who conduct a few games. Again, we all go home, sort through the candy and try to get the kids to go to bed.

Or, as so many more adults are dressing up for Halloween, we end up taking the kids over to grandma’s while we go to our own party.

Any of this sound familiar? It’s not really anybody’s fault. The way of “doing” Halloween has changed over the years and most of us are still adjusting.

What many families are starting to do is to make Halloween a family event again. When adults and all the kids dress up in costume, especially in costumes that match a theme, there is a feeling of being connected starting right away when everyone is getting ready and dressing up in their costumes. I’ll bet you can even get dad to participate if he can be a superhero.

If the kids are going door to door, how much more fun to go to the door with them and be dressed up in matching costumes. It’s fun for the kids, fun for the parents, and fun for the people answering the door. Of course you really should make it clear you aren’t there for candy. In fact, some parents like to bring a bag of candy and offer to leave a treat with the kind folks who open their doors to our children.

If, on the other hand, your neighborhood is having a party and that is how your family will be celebrating Halloween, when dressed in matching Halloween family costumes, your family will be the center of attention and it’s bound to create an atmosphere of everyone participating together, instead of kids on one end, parents on the other.

There are so many costumes these days that come in all sizes for all members of the family, like Toy Story 3 Halloween Costumes. There even Baby Toy Story 3 Halloween costumes.

Your kids will have some really great memories and I’ll bet when they grow up they’ll talk about how great Halloween was when they were kids.

Men’s Gangster Halloween Costumes – Lookin’ Good

Sunday, August 29th, 2010

One reason for the popularity of dressing up in gangster Halloween costumes is a direct result of gangster movies. With the advent of sound in film, gangster movies became a favorite of movie goers. Now movie patrons could experience the sound of gun fire, screeching tires, sirens and the quick talking gangster slang.

The gangsters portrayed were sharp dressed with fedora hats, long coats, double breasted pin striped suits, and long ties.

Movie stars like James Cagney, Edward G. Robinson, Humphrey Bogart and George Raft were big box office. In movies like The Public Enemy, Little Caesar, and the original Scarface, these gangsters were violent and ruthless. But they looked good in their gangster dress suits, hats and ties while they were being their bad selves.

Although men do still dress in suits on occasion, it’s no longer common. The habit of men wearing dress hats has completely been replaced by no hats or baseball caps. Gangster Halloween costumes are popular because of the aura of adventure attached to that time, but I have to wonder if there isn’t a certain longing to go back to a time when men’s fashion and appearance were part of the package. So at least for one day out of the year, wearing a gangster Halloween costume, allows a man to dress up in a fancy gangster dress suit and fedora hat and not be out of place.

As for how a woman views a man in gangster dress costumes, most women feel there’s something about a man in a suit. One example of this is the popularity of searches on the internet for pictures of Matt Bommer who plays Neal Caffrey in the TV series White Collar. The character is dressed in sharp looking suits and a dress hat and looks good in them too.

As the costume industry has recognized the popularity of Men’s Gangster Halloween costumes two things have happened: on one hand the costumes have become more realistic of 1920s and 30s fashion. In other cases the gangster style has taken certain aspects and exaggerated those to make some men’s Gangster Halloween costumes like the Massive Mobster costume with blow up shoulders to portray an enforcer type of 1920s gangster.

For whatever reason we like to dress as a gangster, it allows us to experience a little second hand excitement of those times while not having to experience the violence and dark side that went along with that era and lifestyle.

As an added benefit of dressing in men’s gangster Halloween costumes, “every girl’s crazy ’bout a sharp dressed man. …”

You Can Be 50’s cool in Grease Costumes This Halloween

Thursday, August 19th, 2010

The idea of being a cool 50’s bad boy or girl has a certain appeal to it. You don’t have to have experienced the time to still want to dress up for Halloween in a 50s costume with a Grease jacket for the guys or poodle skirts for the girls. There’s a sort of innocence along with the wildness associated with the era and the re-creation of that time at home parties or fundraising events with sock hops and 50’s dances is still popular. It’s understandable; we still like the bad boys and girls like Angelina Jolie in some of her roles or Nicholas Cage in just about anything.

Right along with that the Grease phenomena and Grease costumes are alive and well, and why not? I dare anybody to watch this movie or see the musical and not feel like dancing or at least singing along. Doing the hand jive, “Summer Nights” and “Greased Lightning” have all become a part of our culture. Rizzo’s hauntingly touching “There are Worse Things” and the rousing ending of “You’re the One I Want“; its electrifyin!! Dressing up as Grease movie characters is a fun way to go Hyyydro-matic, Ultra-matic.

Grease is still the word and there are a wide variety of Grease costumes to choose from in addition to enough Grease costume accessories to make any of the costumes original.

There are 50’s poodle skirt costumes or Rydell High Cheerleader costumes for the innocent look of Sandy before she decided the way to catch her man was to go sexy and yes there are sexy Sandy costumes too.

There are Pink Ladies jackets and T Bird jackets, which signify you as a part of the “in” crowd at Rydell High. There are even Grease costumes for kids so mom and daughter can have look alike Pink Ladies jackets. Your son can grab a comb and some hair gel, roll up his jeans and be a T Bird or James Dean look alike with these cool cat Grease costumes. There’s even a poodle skirt costume for the baby–soo cute! With so many accessories available like the Frenchie pink hair wig and 50’s head scarves and cat eye glasses, you can still make your Grease costume fit your own idea of 50’s style.

You don’t have to wait for Halloween either. There’s a wide variety of 50′s party supplies for a Halloween party or an anytime party, including a 3′ blowup replica of a jukebox. How fun is that? So have a great time and a hip, slick and cool Halloween.

The Big Extravagant Excessive Diva Costume Site!

Thursday, August 19th, 2010

I was having so much I got carried away. I’m getting a little personal here in this article, but maybe you’ll bear with me a bit. It began simple enough as a Halloween costume site for Diva Costumes. I started thinking about what makes a Diva and who are the Divas and to make a long story short I ended up with a Big, Extravagant Excessive Diva Costume Site. Instead of concentrating on general Diva costumes, like a Go Go costume, or a rock star costume, or a Disco costume, I began with a basic costume then browsed around and dug into all the costumes and put together a “look”; with accessories, wigs, dresses, shoes, etc. to end up with a Diva costume for some of the famous Diva’s. In a couple of instances I started from scratch without a basic costume. You could say I got a little bit carried away and some people may call it obsessive. I prefer to think of it as thorough and focused.

So now I have Marilyn Monroe costumes, Cher costumes, Madonna costumes, Rita Haworth costumes, Bette Midler costumes, costumes for Liza Minnelli, an Audrey Hepburn costumes, Betty Boop costumes and even a Jayne Mansfield costume, complete with and Diva wigs, shoes, accessories and in some cases even the underwear. So hand me a topic about Diva costumes and I run away with it, but it really makes sense in a way; it’s kind of Diva-ish, if you see what I mean. Oh, and there are also the more general Diva costumes, like 80’s costumes, Disco costumes, and Go Go costumes.

The result of all this, besides me having a great time, is that you can take advantage of my getting carried like I did. You can get a truly unique Diva costume from head to toe without spending hours yourself tying everything together. Of course you can still do that if you want and if you don’t like what I’ve come up with I’m pretty sure you’ll get some great ideas and inspiration to get your own creative juices flowing.

Now if this all sounds a bit self-promoting that’s just not true. I really did it for all the Diva’s of the world—really. So you can have the perfect Diva costume for your inner Diva and show up at your Halloween parties with your own unique custom Diva costume. That’s what a Diva would do.

Star Wars Princess Costume – A New Look

Thursday, July 29th, 2010

Since George Lucas mastered the concept of Prequels and Sequels, we have entirely new generations who are enjoying the Star Wars legacy of films. Of course if you were around for the first Star Wars back in 1977, your idea of a Star Wars princess costume was Princess Leia in a long, white gown and those buns on the side of her hair style.

However, in later episodes when Leia was taken hostage by Jabba the Hut, at least the Hut-meister knew how to dress his slave girls. It may be old school, but that Princess Leia slave girl costume was smoking hot!

Many years later and a few prequels and sequels passed, we now have some newer Star Wars princess outfits. Before she became queen, there was Princess Amidala. And Amidala was another sexy character in the Star Wars realm. Just take a look here:

Queen Amidala Costume

This costume is also available as a Star Wars child costume!

Look Like Your Favourite Hero This Halloween

Friday, July 16th, 2010

No matter who is their favourite character, each and every person wants to resemble their hero. Whether is it the good guy or the bad guy, people just love to be dressed up like someone famous. This is why there are numerous people who choose to dress up like movie or cartoon characters for Halloween.

The choice for such costumes is really varied. Thus, if you looking for a particular character costume you have a good chance of finding what you are searching for, while if you have no idea about the character you want to imitate, making a decision can prove to be a difficult task. If you just search any costume website for character outfits, you will find superhero costumes, fairy tale costumes, cartoon character outfits and adaptations of all the above mentioned. There are multiple possibilities which will give you plenty of freedom to choose what is best for you.

For example, if you are searching for a costume which can make you look like Spiderman, you can go for the classical, blue and red costume available both in adult and child sizes, you will find some very sexy adaptations of this outfit so that it fits the women’s style and you will also see a venom costume, which is basically a reinterpreted, black and mean Spiderman outfit. So, if you want to choose the traditional costume you are free to do so, while if you want a more original outfit based on the costume your favourite character wore, you will have a lot of possibilities to choose from. This way, even if you have a Spiderman costume, which is a pretty popular costume, there are still ways to select an original outfit, which will attract all eyes on you this Halloween.

Yet, this does not apply just to Spiderman, as all famous costumes have such adaptations. Even costumes of the characters acting in ads, which are a huge inspiration for people who want to have a well-known costume, can be found in different colours, sizes and models. Probably the best known characters are the M&M costumes, which can be found in blue, orange, green, red or yellow colours.

So, if you want to look like your favourite character, do not let anything stop you, not even the fear of meeting other people who have been inspired by the same character. With the multitude of colours and models available for only one character, the chances of meeting someone who is dressed like you are minimal.

Colorful Costume Ideas for Women Who Want to Be Pretty this Halloween

Friday, July 16th, 2010

Women love colours. They like to choose different combinations and different colours for their outfits. However, for a long period of time it was believed that only ghost or skeleton costumes were suitable for Halloween celebrations. These costumes not only restricted women’s imagination, but their choice of colours too, as these costumes were mainly black and white. Fortunately, those times are over and colourful costumes are much more popular and sometimes even chosen as the theme for the Halloween party.

If you are thinking about dressing up in a colourful costume and still have no idea what would be best for you to wear, why not take a look at the Rainbow Brite costume. It will take you back to those times when you were a little girl watching the adventures of Rainbow Brite. Also, it is such a cute costume that it will instantly put a smile on everybody’s face. If you do not like the multi-coloured costume, then you can go for the green version, which is equally cute and funny.

For those who love pink, the Sally costume, imitating Sally from the Peanuts series will be a great choice. It is fun, brightly coloured and features a mask which will add a special touch to the costume. This alternative is as stylish as the Rainbow Brite outfit. Also, both of them are highly comfortable and can be worn all night long.

There may be even women who, in spite of the fact that they want a colourful costume, may not get along with the idea that they have to wear a comic costume for this Halloween. Well, if they do not like such costumes, they can go for the horror alternative: the rag doll Sally from the Nightmare before Christmas. They will still have that colourful outfit, but their look will not be labelled as a funny and cute one even though they will have red hair! However, it can be easily transformed from a horror costume to a happy one, depending on the mood of the person who wears it.

No matter which of the costumes you choose, colourful costumes will certainly look better than the black and white outfits everyone else is wearing this Halloween, regardless of your age or gender. So, look up some funny, serious or horror costumes which make use of colour to express their message and you will see how positively everyone reacts to your amazing look. In addition to this, a colourful party is, most of the time, a happy and successful one, where all people have lots and lots fun!

Sexy Halloween Costumes for Playful Girls

Friday, July 16th, 2010

Most of the time, a Halloween costume is more than a simple outfit one wears for one night, it is a statement about the person who wears it, about their mood and preferences. This is why many people choose their costumes very carefully and make sure that they show other people something about themselves through the way they look.

Werewolves Costumes – Perfect for a Scary Halloween Night

Friday, July 16th, 2010

Halloween has its origins in a Celtic holiday which made strange rituals in order to keep the spirits of the deceased away from this world. These spirits were mainly thought to be evil creatures which destroyed their crops and killed their animals. The tradition of wearing costumes for Halloween seems to be reminiscent from those times, too, when people were wearing animal skins in order to chase the spirits away. This is mainly why the traditional Halloween costumes are those of ghosts, skeletons and horrible creatures, such as werewolves.

If you want to stick to the tradition, then a bad wolf costume will be one of the most suitable outfits for you. The hairy chest and the horrifying mask with lots of hair and big white teeth ready to bite off big chunks of fresh meat will make a strong impression on whoever sees the costume. There are numerous costumes inspired from different films or videos which will give you goose bumps as soon as you see them, so if you are looking for a horror effect, you have every chance of succeeding with such a costume.

The wolf Halloween costume will not only look great alongside Little Red Riding hood, but also alongside other creepy creatures, ready to tear people apart, suck their blood and torture them until death. Thus, if you are thinking about wearing a werewolf outfit, make sure that your partner and your friends have similar costumes, like Dracula costumes, Frankenstein costumes, ghosts, skeletons and other such outfits which will compliment your look and will make you one of the most horrific Halloween gangs ever. With such outfits you will certainly become the meanest characters at the party.

If you want something really special, you can choose to wear a werewolf costume similar to that worn by Michael Jackson in the Thriller video. This way you will still have that scary attitude and at the same time you can pay a tribute to the king of pop, especially if you have been one of his millions of fans.

After finding the perfect wolf costume, make sure you practice your growl, so that it is as convincing as possible. Only this way will you be able to have a scary attitude and get as close to the original wolf as possible. So, start looking for your costume and in the meantime practice your attitude and your growl to be a perfect bad wolf this Halloween.

Classic Halloween Costume Ideas for People Who Like Playing

Friday, July 16th, 2010

Playing is one of the most fun activities animals and humans experience. People of all ages like to play different games. Whether they play computer games, one to one games, strategy games or group games, people use these activities to get rid of stress and take their mind away from their usual problems. Playing involves, most of the time, both the body and the mind, so that at the end of the day, playing can be an activity which will relax your entire being.

One of the games which has been popular throughout history is mime. It can be played by anyone at home and it involves imitating an object, a feeling or a state without using words, while the rest of the group has to guess what it is all about. If you have been to the circus, you have probably seen that there is also a mime act usually played by a clown. Inspired by the Italian tradition, as well as the harlequin from the French courts, the mime has become very popular among children. With their black and white costumes, their funny make-up and their silent and smiling faces, the mimes are great characters to imitate if you want a special black and white costume for Halloween. A mime costume will not only get you in the spotlights, but may also give rise to a mime game in the middle of the party, thus making it more original and fun.

If you are no longer fascinated with mime games and the computer games now occupy a great place in your heart, you surely have heard about Mario and Luigi. This game has been around for so long that it is almost as popular as chess. Mario & Luigi is indeed one of the classical computer games which has continued to remain popular year after year. Thus, if you are thinking about wearing a classical game costume for this Halloween a Mario Luigi costume will be just perfect. Everybody will recognize you on the street and you will find many volunteers willing to help you find the Peach princess.

Other classical games costumes, such as card game costumes, chess costumes or even classical computer games costumes can be great alternatives for a game theme party. They will take you back to the times when you were a little child or a naïve teenager who wanted to play. In addition to that, it will be a great way to escape this crazy world and take things the easy way, at least for one night.

Serial Killer Costume Ideas for This Halloween

Friday, July 16th, 2010

For many people Halloween is the time when they can do things they are not allowed to do in a normal day. They can be anyone they want and act like total freaks without fearing this will affect their reputation. Moreover, Halloween is a time of freeing yourself of all the negative energy acquired during the year. This is the reason why most people choose frightening costumes for the Halloween parties. This type of costume requires a negative attitude, so that their wearers will be able to experience their darker side for a day and get rid of all the frustrations which have troubled them.

Many people consider Michael Myers, the main character from the Halloween series, the epitome of meanness, pure evil and one of the best serial killers which has been played out on the big screens. This horrific figure has made a great career in the movie industry. Thus, if you want an outfit which will give you the opportunity to be mean, then a Michael Myers costume will be a perfect choice for you. With a mask on your face and a knife in your hands, you will have an authentic costume which will definitely scare all of the people at the party.

Another very famous serial killer character from the big screens is Jason Voorhees, the main evil character from Friday the 13th. Thus, if you have not been impressed by Michael Myers you can choose to be Jason. The reaction you get from people will be one of fear and horror as you join in the fun at the party. In fact, the two anti-heroes are very much alike: they both wear masks, they both use sharp weapons (Michael Myers has a knife, while Jason has a machete) and they are both serial killers who will never stop. Yet, if you think that Jason has a more impressive story than Michael Myers, you can wear a Jason costume for this Halloween. You will certainly take some “victims” of your own with this costume and if there is a horror costume contest, you will certainly win it.

So, if you are thinking about being the really bad guy this Halloween, the two above mentioned costumes are great ways of dressing up. Not only will they be very scary, but they will also prove to be very comfortable and easy to wear. Even the masks will not cause you any discomfort, so all you have to do is play your role well to convince the other guests at the party of your evil spirit.
