2013 so far has been full of pop culture mishaps and intrigue that impressed us all, and with Halloween right around the bend, these events are sure to influence costume choice.
For those in need of some inspiration, here are some golden ideas that will be sure to impress.
Miley Cyrus:
Oh, I just can’t wait to see the many wild impersonations of this “Child star gone wild” running the streets! This works best for those with short hair, unless you plan on pulling up long hair into a short wig.
This can be an easy one to throw together last minute with crazy clothes, blonde temporary spray dye, hair gel, red lipstick, and a tongue going dry from overexposure.
With so much room to make this your own, it’s sure to be one popular pick, and personally, I really hope to see a few males pull it off! Grab your foam fingers!
Duck Dynasty:
The rag tag, hillbilly bunch who found television fame is sure to be the focus of many Halloween male group costumes. It’s as simple buying a fake beard (or growing out, you manly men!) and getting totally decked out in camo.
Just make sure someone wears Willy’s infamous American flag bandanna headband and Si’s huge 80’s style glasses.
Pitch Perfect’s Barden Bellas:
Great female group costume, and easily done too!
A huge factor when doing group costumes is budget, but with a fantastically simple idea such as this, you may just have most of what you need already in your closet!
A black pencil skirt, a white polo, a black cardigan, matching heels, and a yellow bandanna modestly tied around your neck like a flight attendant to polish off this look. Pitch Perfect is a cult classic among the girls of our generation, and this costume will be sure to impress your peers when they see your ingenuity.
The Avengers:
Of course this is to be expected. As it does every Halloween, superheroes will dominate the Halloween parties. This idea can be for either gender, but no matter what, it is always done best in a group.
Honestly though, I hope that we can come up with more witty and outside the box ideas than a mainstream Captain America.
The Walking Dead’s Zombies:
Zombies are always popular on Halloween, but with such great effects in shows like The Walking Dead, expectations have risen. This gives a whole new twist to the average fake blood zombies.
With impeccable craftsmanship, the old fashioned just won’t do anymore. So if you do plan to attempt this, pop culture demands you must do it up right! To list out what you might need to accomplish this would be endless, so for our sake, I won’t bore you with it.
Honey Boo Boo with Go Go Juice:
Trash television always makes for the best costumes!
On the unfortunately hit tv show, “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo”, she is often seen drinking what she calls “Go Go Juice”.
This deadly concoction is the mix of Mountain Dew and Red Bull, which sends her to the edge of crazy and back if you can imagine.
Don a frilly dress, a blonde curly wig, pounds of makeup so thick that you are unrecognizable, and keep your Go Go Juice close for a hilarious costume that everyone will notice and love.
