Finding The Most Demented Of Clown Masks, Costumes And Accessories This Halloween

Clown.by Joe Leob

Pair a fun, scary or evil clown outfit to the craziest of clown masks to create that perfect look this Halloween night.

If thinking of dressing up as hideous smiling, demented or creepily funny clown, than there is certainly a wide selection of full, over-the-head latex masks (covers the entire head) or partial face-covering masks (half-face or two-third), while specialty, hand-made masks are also available.

A frighteningly realistic costume mask, made of lightweight foam latex (easy to wear), comes with such artistic features as a red-nose, sardonically smiling expression to a set of fierce fanged teeth, etched in facial details, and a tuft of blue, red or green fly-away hair atop its head to freak out anyone foolish enough to step in its path.

Prior to putting on the mask, using face make-up to ring the eyes, stage blood, to clowns-face white creme serves to offer a more fearful, realistic and complete look once paired with a favorite outfit, such as the hoop clown, a retro set-up, or evil clown costume.

Taking care of a full or half-face latex mask is achievable with a few simple steps to prolong its useful life, which can include stuffing paper inside to aid in retaining its shape - always a wise move in between wearings, to wash in cool water, and than to leave to air or line dry.

Accessories offer a perfect touch to give a creative finish to a clowns outfit, with such desirable extras consisting of white cotton gloves, multi-colored ties or socks, checkerboard large shoe to squeeker horns, make-up kits and much more.

If hosting a costume, theme-related or Halloween party, a wide selection of clown backdrops or props are available to established a more desirable atmosphere, with such props consisting of a full-length hanging figure with tattered fabric and scary clown head. A light-up or talking head - with motion activity to speak multiple phrases or to light up its eyes, and a miniature clown figure - playing creepy music, offering motion sensor activity, and standing 2.5-feet tall.

Whether it is a frightful vision of a scary clown to a wacky clown mask, sure to get plenty of laughs, a half or full-face mask is easy to wear, certain to give a lasting impression, and have people running for the hills, wishing they were somewhere else far, far away. - 39969

Ideas For Spooky Halloween Gift Baskets

Halloween Basket Winnerby Sean McIvor

Halloween gift baskets have become the latest trend during this spooky season. Because of their versatility, they are an increasingly popular choice to give to friends, family, colleagues, clients, and business associates. These gift baskets contain goodies perfect for the season, and it's up to what you want to put inside.

There are all sorts of choices when it comes to Halloween gift baskets. They can include a selection of fruit in dark colors, chocolates with a ghoulish theme, a few scary books, and even spooky stationary. You can use a picnic basket or hamper and fill it up with a selection of gourmet foods that have a Halloween theme. Or you might create a movie-night basket which contains a selection of scary movies.

You can stick with the Halloween theme and include only orange and black items, if you like. Or you can mix it up a bit, particularly if it's for someone really special to you, and include some of their favorite things. CDs, candles, homemade treats, special soap or bath products, fruit (oranges are perfect), or even a pair of mittens or gloves for the upcoming colder weather.

If the gift basket is for a child, you can find lots of stuffed toys appropriate to this ghostly season that will give an added touch to your Halloween gift basket. For kids who aren't interested in cuddling, give them an action figure that came from a Halloween movie. For a personal touch, make sure to include an appropriate card addressed to the person you are giving the basket to. A cute one could read "Open at Your Own Peril!"

If you don't have time to make your own Halloween gift baskets this year, you can find lots of them for sale already made up. They're available at many stores in your neighborhood, and you can also buy them online with fast delivery. They range in price from under $25 to more than $100, so you'll be sure to find something that fits your budget. - 39969

House Decorations For Your Halloween Party

Halloween Decorationby Adriano Ortsaced

If there is a time of the year when ghosts and goblins roam the streets of the fashionable globe, that is during a Halloween party. Today's ghost and goblins are most likely far more horrifying than at another time in history but they are sometimes tempered by a princess in search of frogs and also a few witches and wizards along the way. Halloween can be an excellent day to become a child but can even be a fantastic day for grown ups as well. Adorning for your Halloween Party is often nearly as entertaining as going out and begging for sweets any day of your week.

Apart from possessing a nicely decorated house for this holiday provides you the right excuse to scare the evil out of some youthful ghoul or vampire that thinks he or she is good in frightening people. The really cool thing about decorating for the Halloween party is that you can be as creative as you can be. You are perfectly free to find some really scary home arrangements for this delightful holiday or take on a kinder, gentler, more child-friendly form of design. Either choice is yours and yours alone and should cautiously keep track of the scare-ability of your kids when deciding. You undoubtedly do not want them be afraid to come home.

For more frightening Halloween party scenes, you may want to use some strobe signals, terrifying songs and sound effects, dry ice as a way to integrate spooky fog, and plenty of spider web kind netting as a way to give those that dare approach your door bells an entire and thorough situation in the willies. Does not this seem so much entertaining? Coffins with headless straw guys will also be an awesome inclusion including skittering spiders along with the usual chainsaw or two. A glow in the dark hockey mask may be an excellent selection. Bodiless heads suspended by fishing wire will also be quite the highlight for your real and strong fright.

If your target is to generate a child friendly Halloween party atmosphere you will find cheerful pumpkin centerpieces that will be present in a lot of shapes and sizes as well as Casper the friendly ghost, Frankenstein party bags, and other enjoyable party favors which are developed to bring leisure and delight rather then terror. String pumpkin signals all around the porch for extra lighting and one more welcoming face also to holding lots of candles and lanterns lit close by. Not all trick or treaters are older kids who value an excellent scare so keep this in mind because the small ghosts, goblins, princesses, and super heroes are about to arrive.

For grownup gatherings, all bets are off when it comes to house decorating for any Halloween party. You will discover all types of themes that may be followed from the incredibly zany and outrageous to the distressing or flamboyant. The most significant suggestion in these matters is to own fun designs at all instances and bring the life in the party rather than obtaining the centerpieces for the memorable Halloween party upstage your efforts. Considerably too many people today shell out far more time concerned with how they'll adorn their homes rather then wondering how they are going to embellish themselves for your festivities. If you discover the ideal costumes, all eyes will probably be on you and never your decors.

Favorite recommendations for an adult Halloween party would come with strobe lights, a lot just like the terrifying scene described above, reduced extra signals, maybe black lights near the food and drinks area from the party. Additional dry ice, if tolerable, because some people have complications with the scent specifically all those with allergy symptoms or asthma so you may want to avoid this inside your property and leave it for the exterior. Bales of hay in the corner make exceptional additional seating and might contribute to your Halloween party ambiance. Just remember that the underlying goal is for you personally and your guests to acquire an excellent time. Have excellent foodstuff, very good audio, and excellent buddies, and also the arrangements for an amazing Halloween party is actually and definitely should be a secondary concern. - 39969

Girl Witch Costumes For A Halloween Night Full Of Magic

WELLS, UNITED KINGDOM - JULY 28:  Carole Bohan...by Peggy Huiseghems

Do you sometimes feel cursed? Perhaps you find that things in your house often just disappear - as if by magic - only to reappear months later in the oddest of places. Have you ever told off the children for something and then promptly kicked your toe or pricked your finger? The "evil eye" can do that! Maybe you've even heard cackling coming from their bedrooms. If there's funny business going on at your place, you might just have a witch in the house.

Life of a witch can be pretty dull for most of the year. There's only so much you can do with a household broom and dull mortal clothing. Luckily, just around the corner is the night of the year your little witch has been waiting for - Halloween. Why not let your little witch express herself in a girls witch costume that matches her personality?

If your little witch is filled with laughter and gaiety she'll probably like the colorful Kandy Korn Witch Child Costume with its orange, black and yellow coloring. If that's a little too hot for your liking let her take her magic to the streets in the Pretty Pumpkin Witch Girl's Costume.

The fashion conscious witch might like to make her statement in the Green Punky Witch Costume. If your sorceress seems to be heading for the dark side she'll fit right in with the crowd in the Midnight Witch Child Costume - and if she can't go anywhere without the right accessories, check out the spider and scaredy cat handbags.

Of course, the little man of the house who wants to work his magic on Halloween will need the Evil Warlock Child Costume. Fortunately he'll be on your side on the night and you just might need his magic powers to fend off the many witches, ghouls, ghosts and other assorted creatures that will rise to the call of Halloween.

The girl who's just beginning to outgrow "cute" but hasn't quite turned into a troublesome teenager might be difficult to please. Try the Sassy Pumpkin Witch Tween Costume - it will look stunning on your average almost-a-teenage witch.

If you've a teenager in the house you probably know just what bubble, bubble, toil and trouble means. Teenagers try on all manner of "costumes" while they're working out who they really are. Yours might want to try out the Pretty Potion Teen Costume.

If your teenager is a late riser it's probably because she has to stay up for the bewitching hour to talk to the other members of her coven. In that case she'll be quite happy in the Midnight Witch Teen Costume.

There's even the perfect costume for the fledgling witch whose only power is a beguiling smile. Let your toddler be part of the coven in the Pretty Pumpkin Witch Toddler Costume. Everyone who looks upon her will be mesmerized.

Witches can be a real handful through the year when there's no outlet for their sorcery. Exercise your own power and let them get some of it out of their system this Halloween in an original kids witch costume. - 39969

Terrific Ideas For Homemade Halloween Decorations

Halloween 2006
by Ashley King

When the little trick or treaters come knocking on your door, or if you're having a Halloween party, you'll want some decorations to suit the spooky occasion. There's lots of stuff to be found in the stores, but it can get pretty expensive. Why not make your own Halloween decorations and save yourself some money? Here are some terrific ideas to get you started.

To give your visitors a real scare, why not make a life-size mummy? Take some old pants and a shirt, lay them on the floor and stuff them with newspaper. For the hands, attach a pair of gloves to the arms of the shirt, and for the head, just inflate a balloon and attach it to the collar. Then wrap the whole thing up using toilet paper or gauze. If you can spare an old white bed sheet which you can cut into strips, even better. Leave some slits near the eye area.

It's easy to create homemade bats from Styrofoam. Find a bat pattern on the internet, cut it out and position it on the foam. Then cut around it, and paint the Styrofoam black. Another option is to use black construction paper. Hang your bats from the ceiling or eaves, or stick them on your window.

Spiking the punch bowl is probably something you did back in college but for Halloween, people will surely laugh when they see a hand inside. All you need is a plastic glove; fill it with water, seal it and freeze it. When it's solid, drop it in the punch bowl to give your guests a jolt.

You might think that ketchup is the only thing around to make fake blood but you are wrong. You can also make some using a cup of corn syrup, a tablespoon of water, 2 tablespoons of red food coloring and tablespoon of yellow food coloring. Once you mix this all together, you will realize that it looks much more realistic than ketchup. Use the mixture to add ghoulish accents to your homemade Halloween decorations. - 39969

Of course, we also have great costumes for guys, such as a giant chicken or a fierce pirate. Whether you're going to a hot party or trick-o-treating with your kids, we have something you'll love.

The Beer Garden Girl Adult Plus Costume is sexy cute. It comes with a dress that has a green bodice and orange skirt. Add the white Lace Petticoat Plus to give your skirt some extra volume. You can even store your belongings in the clever Beer Mug Handbag. The Diner Delight Plus Adult Costume is a bit similar-or at least related to eating out. This red and white dress comes with a Cherrie nametag and retro headpiece. It looks great with the Sangria Adult Shoes. The I Love Lucy Classic Plus Adult Costume is also fun and definitely has a retro vibe. Add the I Love Lucy Adult Wig to complete the look.

Full-length gowns are a fun way to be the queen or princess you always wanted to be. The Baroness Plus Adult Costume comes with a brown two-tone dress and a matching headpiece. This costume looks great with the Renaissance Pouch. If you want something more fairy-tale like, the Enchanting Princess Elite Collection Adult Plus Costume is a great choice. This lovely blue gown looks like it came out of Cinderella. It even includes a hoop petticoat, fingerless white gloves, a tiara and jeweled choker. The Vanity Adult Shoes are a great add-on if you want to look like you're wearing glass slippers.

Just add boots, such as the Hook Adult Boots. The Pirate Plus Adult Costume is another great choice. Just don't forget to add a pirate hat.

Kids Of All Ages Will Enjoy These Halloween Games

A spooky strike!by Sean McIvor

Whether you decide to take the kids out for an hour of trick-or-treating and then come back for the party, or just forego the neighborhood wanderings this year, it is an absolute must that you have a fiendishly good time by playing Halloween games. This holiday is usually considered a kid's day, but I like to think of Halloween as a time to become a kid again, and Halloween games - even if they are really designed to please the kiddies - can really be Halloween games for both kids and adults.

Pass the Pumpkin. This game is great fun and all you need are three pumpkins and some people. Just group up the players into groups of pretty even ability levels, or make it kids against the adults or boys against the girls if you like. Each group starts with a pumpkin and the first player passes it to another in the group. Then that person passes it on to someone else, and so on. The winning team is the team that does not drop the pumpkin. Ohhh...did I forget to mention, you should put some Crisco on the pumpkins first? Howling good fun! This is an outside game of course!

Mummy Maniacs. This game is very cool and all you need is some rolls of white crepe paper or toilet paper. First, divide everyone up into teams of two players each. One takes the paper and makes the other one into the mummy, being sure to wrap the legs together, not separately. Then, the non-mummies run around in a roped-off area, and it is the job of the mummies to "capture" an enemy partner. The first one to hug the enemy is the winner.

Spider Sack Relay Race. This game makes players into spiders and requires just a little forethought and before-the-party preparation. All you need are three old pairs of panty hose and some old rags to stuff inside them. Put the rags in the legs of the pantyhose. Then, divide the players into three teams. The first player ties the pantyhose around his waist so that the legs dangle on his sides. He bends over and crawls on his hands and feet (or hands and knees, whichever) and goes to the finish line, where a teammate waits for him. Then, the teammate takes off the dangly pantyhose spider legs, and puts them on herself and crawls back to the beginning. Play continues until all players have crawled. First team to get everyone across a finish line wins.

It's easy to become a kid again on Halloween night and make it a special night for everyone. You can probably even think up some variations on these games to make them even more fun for your guests. - 39969

Ideas For The Perfect Halloween Party

The JCMU Halloween Partyby John Spencer

One of the best excuses for having a party is Halloween. It's not really seen as a holiday or event and many people overlook it, but as far as good themed parties go there are few better than Halloween parties - costumes, decorations, food and of course games, what more does a party need to be a success? If you haven't been invited to one this year, why not host your own?

As with hosting any party one of the major stumbling blocks is finding the right venue. As Halloween is generally more a bit of fun more than other holidays such as Christmas, why not have a party at home? This may seem a little scary at first, but there are a few tricks you can put in place in advance to minimise the disruption.

If you are going to host your own party at home then you'll need to make sure there is enough space for everyone. Move as much as you can into your garage, or better still, if you have a sizable garage move as much as you can out of there and use that! With some customised storage and a few garage floor tiles you'll have a room ready to go and all of your valuables safely out of the way!

When you have made space the next thing to do is think about spooky decorations! Don't hold back on cobwebs, skeletons and any images of ghosts or ghouls you can find - if you have children they can help you design some scary images to attach the walls and doors. If you are holding the party in your garage, why not add some more scary ornaments in your garden and let the party spill out - what about a fake grave yard or for a high tech effect, hide a portable CD player to play scary sounds or wolf howls!

Along with the decorations, you should also put some consideration towards what food you will provide for your guests and of course what Halloween themed games you will be playing. Pumpkin soup and bobbing apples are a good place to start, but don't be afraid to be creative!

Parties at home can be a bit more stressful than using an external venue, but with the right preparation they can be a breeze, and of course enjoyable! Making space is one particular challenge that will need to be overcome, but don't forget to make full use of all the storage space your house has to offer including your garage and you may be surprised at how much space you really have! - 39969

Pirate Halloween Costumes

Pirate Girlby David Lawson

At fancy dress parties pirate costumes have become increasingly popular with both adults and children. It is not difficult to put an outfit together very cheaply. The most basic of costumes could incorporate old trousers, a white top and possibly a belt and a homemade eye patch. Everyone has a pair of boots they could use.

Cutting up old trousers gives it a very worn authentic look. Too this you could add a flowing white shirt or blouse, with a belt around your middle, you may choose to put a waistcoat on or not. You could also add a long fitted coat if you have one, a velvet one would be ideal. To finish the look, add bashed up old boots or pointy boots.

There are more options if you are female. You could either wear the trousers outfit or you could go for something more feminine such as a dress or skirt and top. Whichever you pick ensure the bottom of the skirt is jagged or a handkerchief hemline for an older effect and you could also get away with a boned top.

The black paint or dark brown can be smeared around for an authentic pirate look. For adults you can adopt the same type of costume as for children, just use the same principles when it comes to finding old clothes to wear. If you don't have old clothes, all you would need to buy would be a pair of black cotton trousers, a baggy white shirt, a waistcoat is optional, most people have these in their wardrobes.

Older girls and women can usually utilize something in their wardrobe for use as an outfit, a shiny party skirt with an uneven hemline would be ideal, this could be either stripey or shiny or even plain black. Fishnet tights and mid calf boots would compliment a more grown up look. You can then start to add items such as hats.

If you do not want to use your old clothes and cut them up then you can buy versions of pirate costumes in fancy dress shops. Some of the outfits you can buy are very authentic and look fantastic. The head gear that pirates wear ranges from the basic bandana through to wide hats with a skull and cross bone on the front. - 39969

Try A Halloween T-Shirt For Your Next Party

I love halloween. tshirtImage by SaMtRoNiKa by Mark Mosley

Halloween is becoming more of a party holiday each year and less of a holiday about little kids and candy. Fewer and fewer kids are turning up every year for candy. Of course, that might be because I'm not at home. I'm out having a good time with the grown ups at a party. Not just one party, either. The holiday keeps spreading outward in all directions. Pretty soon, October will no longer exist. It'll just be called the Month of Halloween. With all of those parties, who can bother with costumes? Halloween t-shirts are a great side-option.

If you are the type of person who wants to attend several parties during the Halloween season but doesn't want to spend time and money on several costumes, then Halloween t-shirts may be the answer. It's to be expected that whatever party you may attend on the actual holiday of Halloween may be formal and require a good costume, the other parties you attend in the surrounding weeks may require something much less formal.

It only takes a minute to find a Halloween t-shirt that might suit your needs. The Web has so many options that you could easily get lost looking for the perfect Halloween t-shirts, but if you narrow your search criteria you can streamline the process. If you might be looking for something a bit scary, then you can look for a creepy Halloween t-shirt. My favorite are the funny Halloween t-shirts, though.

Who really needs to spend that much time in an uncomfortable costume, anyway? Who enjoys trying to drink when you have to lift a mask over your face with each shot? Who enjoys getting greasy paint all over their beer cup? Nobody that I know likes it that much. People put up with costumes and facepaint because of the reaction from others. Once that initial reaction is gone and you've met everyone you're going to meet that night, then the thrill of the costume is over. Wearing a Halloween t-shirt keeps you from having to deal with all of that mess but once a year.

Halloween is a blast. It's become one of the year's biggest party holidays for a reason. It's also why so many satellite parties spring up around that time. The need for a Halloween t-shirt is apparent if you don't want to buy several expensive, sweaty costumes. Get over to the vast reaches of the Internet now and get your Halloween t-shirts now before it's too late! - 39969

One of the most exciting holidays is Halloween and the ghosts and goblins move aside for the pirates of the seven seas. If you are looking for ideas for the event, you may want to consider these pirate costumes for children which are affordable and easy to order.

Such notorious people as Blackbeard, Captain Kid, Calico Jack, Anne Bonny and Henry Morgan sailed the Caribbean waiting to loot the Spanish galleons filled with gold. Yes, you read that correctly. There was a famous pirate that was a woman, and you can have a costume for her. These swashbucklers were bold and cold individuals who commandeered ship, and buried their treasures.

Literature opened the way for pirates to be included in brilliant stories about the adventures of the high seas. Captain Hook, Jack Sparrow, Long John Silver, are just a few of the great literary characters which captivated the imaginations of young and old. These fictitious characters have costumes which are designed about them, and are available with a single click to have them on the way to your door.

When planning a Halloween party, pirates make an excellent choice in themes. There are many supporting characters who are remembered through costumes, such as fairies, wenches and other magical beings who are associated with pirates and add to the mix of costumes.

Not only was there a woman pirate named Anne Bonny, there were buccaneers and pirate scoundrels who inspired more costumes, and they all come in sizes from toddler to adult. Everything a good pirate might need is included, such as shirt, vest, pants, waist sash, belt, boot tops, hat, eye patch, sword and a single earring. Keep in mind there are pirate costumes for girls, too.

All costumes are easy to clean and washable in a machine using cold water, on the gentle cycle, and let them hang to dry. Do not use bleach, and if needed use a cool iron. They are shipped with a garment bag that includes a hanger, and ready to take with you. One of the best things about costumes is that younger children can recycle them, when they grow up just a little.

For an evening that could both entertain and educate your kids, these pirate costumes for children are a great possibility. They could decide they want to read the book about either the fictitious pirates, or the real ones who roamed the seven seas. There are many lessons to be learned about the exploits of these buccaneers, and the excitement your child could have will be memories for the rest of their lives. - 39969

You may not have thought about seeing old Peter Cottontail at a Halloween party. Well I say think again; bunny Halloween costumes are still among the selected gear to be worn on this holiday. Who doesn't love the cuddly and fun image of a bunny rabbit, especially when you see one trick or treating on Halloween? And since this is Halloween, your rabbit can be half human and refuse to sit on an egg if you want. My point is that all rabbit Halloween costumes don't have to be the traditional ones we see on kids.

I'm asking you to step away from thoughts of eggs as well as baskets with weaved handles. There are bunny Halloween costumes around that don't scream Easter. You can make your costume like a cartoon character (think Wily Wabbit) or you can go for something a little more realistic. The decision is yours.

Sure, those can be done well, too. However, take your rabbit to the next level. If you enjoy the creepy factor on Halloween, look to movies like Donnie Darko for rabbit inspiration. I suppose technically, Frank was not a real rabbit, but you get the idea!

The cutesy rabbit will favor pleasant or traditional coloring. Go for a basic brown or pastel shades when you desire the adorable bunny look. A ""friendly"" rabbit tail is generally seen as a plump, round cotton ball shape. You can do much with the ears, although softly curved with a little extra wideness in the middle usually completes the child friendly look.

So the more real looking bunny Halloween costumes should have a natural looking color. A website on nature could be a good starting point when looking for specific details to make your costume more genuine. You will probably find that the tails are not actually so fluffy; tails are really more tapered on the end in an actual rabbit. You can even go so far as attempting to re-create their paws and tiny claws.

Get creative if you want take a nice bunny and make him not so nice; you could turn him into a buck tooth beast. Options are endless when it comes to transforming your rabbit into a more creepy variety. You could even use fake blood and carry something more disgusting than Easter eggs in your basket. Bunny Halloween costumes come in all varieties.

Children love animals. If your Halloween plans mean wearing your costume in public or at a party, where children may be present, be prepared. Ensure that your tail is attached securely. It is very tempting for some children to tug on Easter rabbit tails and ears, trust me, I have seen it happen.

Yes, those bunny Halloween costumes come in so many varieties. They can be as elaborate or as simple as you decide. The best thing to do is tug on your tail and make sure the costume can stand the day, particularly if children are around. There are bunny Halloween costumes to fit everybody's taste and style. Make it scary; make it sexy, make it plain; rabbit costumes are speak much more of Easter now. Edited by Hetsil Protage - 39969

Disco Costumes Offer Funky Options For Halloween

The American music scene made the turn toward disco in the middle part of the 1970s. The sound created when Latin, funk and soul were blending together resulted in a beat that people were able to dance to. The psychedelic influences seen in the clothing styles reflected the roots of the movement that reached back to the decade before. The funky and fun style is instantly recognizable and simple to imitate and that is what makes disco costumes so popular for party goers.

These fashion designs were all about getting noticed at a time with the vibrant club scene was in its infancy. Clothing made a statement, especially on the dance floor. Men were partial to polyester because it was easy to move in. Shiny fabrics were used in button down shirts that were left open at the top. Pants in solid, neutral colors were favored. Clothing for the ladies ranged from jumpsuits and hot pants paired with knee high boots to dresses that flowed and were patterned off popular Halston designs of the day. Fabrics were chosen for the way they reflected light off the ever present disco ball.

Ladies can choose between funky or glam but bright shiny fabrics work best either way. Pantsuits will feature flared legs and bell sleeves that flow freely to the music. Look for fabrics with busy patterns in shades of orange, purple and hot pink.

For the disco queen, metallics that sparkle are necessary. The shimmering look of gold lame looks fabulous under bright lights. Try a Spandex top and hot pants that leave the legs free to move. Lycra disco pants were made to hug the curves and the stretchy sequined tube top in silver or gold was pretty much the standard. All that moving around made the jumpsuit a popular choice as well. Sexy versions were available in halter top designs with a distinctive tear drop chest.

Suitable accessories are a hip belt made out of metal or plastic. Choose something that has large links shaped like squares, ovals or circles. Chunky costume jewelry including extra large hoop earrings were in fashion at the time. Complete this sexy look with platform shoes or boots.

Clothing worn to the clubs by men was no less eye catching. The disco dude transformation begins with a button down polyester shirt featuring wide pointed lapels and polyester pants in white or some other neutral color. The collar should be turned up and the first few buttons left undone. Finish this look with large sunglasses and a ton of gold chains worn around the neck. Throw in a medallion or two and a couple of wrist chains for good measure.

It is easy to find the perfect costume with inspiration from the colorful world of disco. Flashy fabrics and funky patterns dominated the style and the influence can still be seen in many of the retro fashions of today. Grab your dancing shoes and catch a little "Saturday Night Fever" at your next costume party. - 39969

Get The Perfect Halloween Costume

CHARLESTON, SC - JANUARY 29:  College of Charl...Image by Getty Images via @daylifeby Coleen Smith

Halloween is almost here again, and you know what late October means. Dressing up, of course! It can be challenging to find just the right Halloween costume for you. Halloween is one of those times of the year where you can truly be anything and anyone and that is why it is tough to narrow down the choices. Here, we are going to talk about some ways that you can find the ideal Halloween costume that does not only fit your beautiful body but also fits within your price range and makes you look awesome!

The first thing you need to do is to narrow it down a little. Decide on a general theme for your costume. This will make choosing a costume that much easier, for you already know the theme in which you should be picking the costume in. For instance, if you want to wear a scary costume, you should start looking for witches, phantoms and vampires. If you're thinking of a celebrity, how about Lady Gaga or President Obama?

Take some time picking a theme. There are so many out there with tons of great costume possibilities. Just make sure that you find a theme that fits your personality. Even within a theme, you'll probably want to narrow it down more. Do you want to be gory scary or sexy scary? A costume should make you look awesome and that is what you want to find.

So what are some of the hottest costumes for Halloween for 2010? The movie Alice in Wonderland was released this year, and it has lots of characters that make for great costumes. This theme is sure to be a hit whether you choose to dress up as Alice, the Mad Hatter, the Cheshire Cat, the Red Queen or any of the other characters. With each character, there are several different costume options, ranging from estravagent to sexy to simple.

Every year, witch costumes are popular. This may sound plain, but there's a reason it remains one of the top sellers year after year. Everyone loves to be a witch and no matter if you are a sexy good witch or a naughty bad witch, you want to choose the costume that fits with you and fits with what you are trying to do with the costume. Remember, if you are going to an adult party, sexier costumes are typically perfect and fit in well!

This brings up the point about appropriateness. Think about what kind of event you will be attending and take that into consideration when shopping for your costume. If you are going to a party where kids will be present, you might want to pick something that's not so sexy. That goes double if the kids will be right at the tween age where they want to dress sexy but their parents don't want them to!

After you've selected a theme for your costume, it's time to go shopping. Prices and quality vary widely, so do some homework to find one that fits with your budget. Some trendy costumes will only be worn this once, while other more classic designs might be worn again by you or someone else. Even though you want to get the perfect costume and look great at this year's Halloween party, you don't want to go broke.

As you can see, there are many different things to consider whenever you are choosing Halloween costumes and these are just a few points that you will want to go through before you choose the right costume for you! - 39969
