Halloween costume ideas?

Recommended Posts

I need help!! We're having a costume party at work - and I LOVE to dress up - but I'm drawing a blank this year. Any suggestions? I do love punny costumes (and, since it's work, nothing "slutty" ;-)

 

What's everyone else doing??

I love accessories and esp headbands - if there's a headband, I own it - leopard, devil, bunny, cat, etc. So I've done a lot of "punny" costumes for work - Devil in a Blue Dress, Deviled Egg etc. I do have a witch hat (and a witch headband ;-) My husband has a monk's robe -and he's bald - one year we went as Morticia and Uncle Fester.

Have you searched on pinterest?

 

I searched for "funny Halloween costumes" and a few good things came up:

I like the "50 shades of grey" idea, where you just use the paint swatches you get from the paint store and put them all over your shirt: http://www.pinterest.com/pin/80501912062919395/

I found a few pages - my current front runners are Dust Bunny or Cat Stevens (but I don't have a guitar)

 

This is too much I think: http://www.pinterest.com/pin/527273068844570596/

 

And I love the Operation costume but don't think I have the talent (or the time this weekend) to complete: http://www.pinterest.com/pin/527273068844570615/

This one went over most of my friends' heads (and actually, now that I read what I wrote I'm not surprised), but one year I dressed in a flowing, art nouveau type gown, tied a long scarf around my neck and on the end tied it to the spokes of my bicycle tire. I was Isadora Duncan.

Dust Bunny came out just fine ;-) We had a fun Hallo-Wiin lunch and I did Just Dance for the first time - man that's a workout!

I hate this is the trendy costume this year, it was bad enough seeing this the first time. :angry3:

But this one does make me laugh (love her humor, hate her politics):

Thanks guys!!

 

The woman who won the costume competition was awesome - she wore a cardboard box wrapped in christmas paper and the tag was From: God To: Men - it was great!
