December 4th, 2008 by Elena

On Halloween the costumes are usually divided according to whether they are gothic, scary, crazy, funny, homemade, creative, but there is one group that does not recognize boundaries and those are the most wanted costumes.

So let’s start with those costume ideas that never grow old, like pirates, witches or the, most wanted Halloween costume ever, Star Wars. Almost anyone can find an appropriate costume from Star Wars, fantastic like Yoda costume, sexy like Princess Lea Costume or the old time favorite, Jedi Costume.

The second group is the superhero group. These have been extremely popular all through the years like Batman, or Spiderman and Catwoman. More or less everybody has once in their lives worn some of the great choice of superhero costumes.

And now, we get to the group of the most wanted costumes this year. They all fall into the previous groups, like Batman costume, or the new Joker costume. When it comes to pirates, the most popular pirate costume has been the most popular pirate ever, Jack Sparrow costume. The most popular Star Wars costume has been the new Princess Amidala costume, and for the end, the most wanted kids Halloween costume has been and always will be Harry Potter costume.

The fourth group is very special, since these are the most wanted homemade Halloween costumes. Those are witches, pirates and ghosts. Those that were more creative are Cereal Killer costumes; Jelly Beans costume and for the pair costume a Pair of Dice.

These are just the few of them, but these have been recognized as the most wanted costumes ever and especially this year. But it is very simple and easy to predict these things, because usually the most wanted are those reflecting the main characters of popular movies.

If you really want a good Halloween costume, then make one yourself. The best costume to wear on Halloween has to be the homemade costume. Here are some examples of really funny costumes.

You can always go as a Raggedy Ann, and this is how. First you need to do some shopping, or if you can find these things in your closet even better. Look for a dress in a polka dot or fancy print and get a see through apron and put it over the dress. Look for some red stockings or tights and a black slip to go on your shoes. By a mop head, and it is for the best if it was new, since it is going on your head and dye it red, and put a big red bow on it as well. Make some freckles on your cheeks as well and you are a Raggedy Ann.

Another great Halloween costume, the one that you can make at home off course, is a prisoner. But the one from the old movies, remember?

You need to get a white suit and put some black tape around to make a proper jail suite. Get an old hat, or just make one from paper, but make it in stripes again to be consistent, and for the end the best part, you need to make a chain and a ball attached to your foot. You can get some old chain and the ball, you can either find a real one, or again make it out of paper and alike.

A raison is fairly easy to make, the Californian Raison, from the TV commercial in the 80’s. Just take a huge black plastic bag. Cut the holes for legs and arms, and gather it around the waist with a black belt. Get some black gloves a cap and white sunglasses.

And finally the all time favorite Adam and Eve, for this just take off your clothes. No, just kidding, find some flesh colored tights and shirts and place the leaves you know where :)

So get busy in making your own funny homemade Halloween costume. I hope this helps if not always remember there is a great choice of fun and cheap Halloween costumes you can buy.

Want to celebrate Halloween with your two best friends, and then you are in the need for three matching Halloween costumes for a group of 3 girls, fun and unique at the same time.

Here are some suggestions; they just might do the trick. Charlie’s Angels might be a difficult costume to find, but these you can do yourselves, just make sure you write angel one, two and three on your costumes. Cancan Dancers are a great costume, you might do an act that you have already previously practiced with your friends.

You can always choose to go as some of the superheroes, like Cat woman, Superwoman or Batgirl. All the guys will go crazy once they see you in these costumes, since we all know how much they like comics.

Rock Groupies is also a fairly easy costume, you can do this one on your own, and it will look great since they will be matching. Well in this case the people will have hard time discovering what your costume is if you separate, but that is the point of the group Halloween costume, to have fun together.

If you are looking for something more original, the Tetris Costumes are great and fun. I’ve never seen anyone dressed in Three Musketeers before, so that could be a cool costume, it will certainly be unique.

At the end there is a great choice of Halloween costumes, they do not even have to match, what is important is that you pick them together, and yeah there is one more idea that you could use. Queen of hearts could be yours group Halloween costume.

Remember the time when we all needed to come up with a costume for Halloween and make it ourselves. Those were the homemade costumes you needed to put together yourself, and sure the costumes were not that elegant or expensive and smart but they were more funny, creative and scary. Your whole budget was actually your own closet. If you are still longing for those times, here are some ideas.

The best one ever is the homemade costume of Jelly Beans, seriously people have won awards on this costume and it is fairly easy to make. You need to find a big plastic bag, some colored balloons, a ribbon, and some tights and a black shirt.

You make little holes in the bottom of the bag for your feet, put your legs through and start placing the balloons in. Make sure that you can extend your arms out. You might need some help when finishing the filling and when done let your friend tie the bag with a ribbon. And viola, you got yourself a homemade costume of Jelly Beans.

The next is the old time favorite, a witch costume. It might not be like the original but be sure that it will be unique and creative. All you need are some old black clothes and some black material to make a witch hat. To make a hat, you can find some old one, cover it with black material, and make a spike for a pointy hat. That is easy to do, just place the material on the edges and sew it on the top making a small spike. Don’t forget the broom off course, the older it looks the better. If you have a black cat, or your neighbor has one, take him along.

If you have some old, washed out jeans, you can go as a farmer, get some old white t-shirt, and if you have some of the gardening tools, like a shovel that would be great.

Putting together your own homemade costume for Halloween is fun, you get to have a lot of cool time, and finally sense the beauty and the scare of the Halloween.

All babies are cute and adorable, so it makes sense that you want to get them cute and adorable Infant Baby costumes on Halloween, and here are some suggestions.

These are all adorable but we might categorize them into two groups, the first is more a unique one, more interesting costumes, and the second group are the most classical costumes but still cute.

In the first group you may consider costumes like a Baby Lobster, adorable and not something that you might see every Halloween. I personally loved the Peacock costume; it is colorful, fun and cute. Out of all the Disney Character costumes I loved the Halloween Elephant Infant Toddler costume. Your baby will look adorable in a beautiful elephant costume with huge pink like ears. And the last choice has to be a Chili Pepper Halloween costume, yes you might think that is nothing extraordinary, but you have to see it first to realize that it is out of this world.

The second category might be more of the ordinary kind but not less adorable. I will have to mention the Superman suit or if you are more into Star Wars you can choose between the Princess Leia costume for your baby girl and a Stormtrooper or a Jedi Knight costume for your baby boy. The Shrek costume is really funny, but if you are looking for an amazingly cute costume then the New Plush Lil’ Stinker is the right choice. For the end you can always choose between the Strawberry, Pumpkin or a Lion Suite.

Whatever your choice might be your baby will look cute and adorable for sure, with these costumes you can never go wrong.

It’s Halloween and you still do not have this year’s costume to wear at the party. Then what you need are some ideas for a last minute Halloween costume and these can be done in just 60 seconds.

There is no reason to miss this year’s party just because you do not have a costume; here are some ideas that might help. Leaf Blower is a funny costume, all you need to do is place a leaf in front of your, just tie it to your head and when anybody asks you just blow the leaf and say that you are a leaf blower. Easy and doable in 60 seconds.

The one that always puts a smile on people’s faces is the Nudist on Strike. Just dress up in your everyday clothes and write a sign on a card board saying Nudist on Strike, funny, creative and something that you can use the last minute.

Among these, there are some more last minute Halloween costume ideas, but they might not be highly appropriate, like a Babysitter, where you just tie up a baby doll and sit on it. Showering Man or Woman, where you just wrap up a towel around you, and with a little showering cap and a sponge you will look like you just got out of shower.

Among many other ideas few have to mentioned, like a Gift Halloween costume. All you need is a card box, some paint and a big ribbon, this might take a couple of minutes, but still it is easy to make and does not require any special skills.

No shame in being one of those that need a last minute Halloween costume, what is important is to come up with something so you could join all of your friends at the party.

Speaking of vegetable, if you like this idea you can always go as a watermelon or any other round fruit for that matter, all you need is some imagination.

Still, if you are looking for a Halloween costume that would not expose your belly, then there is one that always works, a Birthday Present. This one you can make on your own, take a card box paint it, so it would look like a birthday present and if you like you can put a pink ribbon on your belly. When you think about it, this also carries a further additional meaning, since your baby is the best present you can ever get.

Finally the costume that many consider the most appropriate during pregnancy is the Mother Earth, or Mother Nature costume. It makes all the sense, Earth due to the round belly, all you need is some body paint and Mother Nature as well. Pregnant women especially like the last two since it connects them to the birth, motherhood, to something spectacular and magical at the same time.
