10 Halloween Costume Ideas You Probably Won't Consider In 2019

In This Article:

Let's face it, there are quite a few common/popular costume ideas for Halloween that most of us like to stick with each year. Things like being a cat, a witch, an athlete, or a movie character are such ideas. They aren't bad, but they're a biiiiiiiiit overused.

1. Chef

The chefs don't get a whole lot of love since they're behind the scenes prepping the food and if you're the one who is being cooked for, you probably aren't even watching the chef at work.

2. A Businessman/Businesswoman

If you work in a corporate office, people see you in your work attire, but you usually won't think about dressing this way for Halloween. Feel free to bring the materials you use at work as props (but not your actual work items).

3. A Nurse

Not everyone is a nurse, but it is interesting because you are putting on a costume as a way to act like another being, even if you are not actually that, ya feel? You can act like one by carrying a stethoscope, and act like you know every anatomic component of the human body, which nurses have down to the bone.

4. Bob Ross

Because it's difficult to paint a painting with a palette in your hand and walk to trick-or-treat at the same time.

5. A Musician

While it's a bit difficult to pick out what genre you're trying to describe in your costume, it's hard to pick out a particular artist on top of that. Don't forget about the instrument either. Their outfits aren't easy to match detail for detail.

6. Your University's Mascot

Not every university has a mascot, and it's hard to copy the mascot's outfit exactly. But be careful with this.

7. Anything where the primary outfit is a suit

Wearing a suit makes it difficult to determine what you are trying to disguise your outfit as, which leads to the question of "What are you supposed to be?".

8. A cheerleader

If you're an actual cheerleader, people probably already know you as one. It's probably difficult to find ones from the store or the official ones for your school. P.S. Limited Too is out of date too.

9. A catfish

Because you can catfish someone by being someone that no one expects you to be. Pun intended.

10. A college student

Because you are already a busy one. No one expects you to try to get homework done while you're out trick-or-treating on Halloween.

You can really be outside the box with your Halloween costume if you consider these 10 ideas.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
