It's that time of year again! The leaves are turning, temperatures are cooling down, and candy can be found everywhere in any store. Halloween is quickly approaching, and the best costumes that people wear are the ones that are DIY. The DIY costumes show creativity and always seem to be the envy of any party. But these DIY costumes are not what I am going to be talking about. I am going to be telling you about all of the costumes that are terrible. These costumes are the ones at the party where you ask yourself, "Why would someone ever wear that?" Sometimes these costumes are so over worn that you never want to see them again as well. There always seem to be someone at the party who decides to show up in one of these two outfits. Ready or not, here they come!
1. The Rideable Turkey
First of all, can you actually ride a turkey? I am pretty sure I've never seen someone on a turkey before, so why would you be it for Halloween? This costume makes an adult look like they belong back in elementary school. Oh, and last but not least, why is the turkey dressed for Christmas? I guess we will never know.
2. Bacon and Egg (or any sort of food)
I ask myself who comes up with the ideas for costumes all the time. Why would you want to be bacon and egg? Not only will you look funny with your partner, you will look dumb. Being bacon is not a Halloween costume. The way I look at it, it's like being a carton of milk. How creative...not.
3. Lunch Lady
Because everyone loves old-looking lunch ladies? This reminds me of the lunch lady no one likes in the movies, with the a mole near her chin and the wonderful mystery meat that no one likes!
4. Prisoner
This costume gives me mixed emotions. Sometimes it's cute and cool, but times like this, you look like an actual prisoner. You never know, someone could see you walking on the side of the road and think you are actually escaped from the local prison. Talk about a hell of a Halloween. You will always have an interesting story to tell after that experience.
5. Scottish Bag Pipe Player
Men shouldn't be wearing a skirt unless they're actually Scottish...that's all.
6. Hugh Hefner
I'm pretty sure Hugh Hefner doesn't look like this...plus it's just as overrated as being a Playboy Bunny. No one can compare with Elle Woods when she dresses up as a bunny in "Legally Blonde," anyway.
7. Yip Yip
What even is a yip yip? Apparently it's something from "Sesame Street." I don't remember those on there when I was a kid. Stay as far away from these outfits as possible...no one can see your face and it's just embarrassing. Dress as a yip yip if you dare.
8. Adult Baby
Sorry everyone, no one wants to see you in a diaper or onesie anytime other than the ages of one-day-old to 2-years-old; after that age, it's just a no-no (plus you look like a weirdo).
9. Any Simple Animal
If you're going to wear leggings with a black T-shirt and decide to put any type of animal ears on your head, please reconsider. The point of Halloween is to go big or go home. You're supposed to look different, not look the same as every other girl in your school.
10. "Risky Business"
We've all been it at one point, but this epidemic needs to end. Wearing a guy's dress shirt and Sperrys with white socks is over and done with. So freshmen, you have been warned this year!
Well kids, that's all for this year! Remember, be creative and unique when creating your costumes for this year's Halloween parties. If you need help, use Pinterest; it's dummy-proof, and there are endless opportunities for cute outfits that aren't weird or basic like the ones above!
