15 Halloween Costumes That Are So Overdone

Halloween was so much simpler when we were younger. Princess costumes, dragon suits, you name it...mom and dad did it all for us. But now Halloweekend is almost amongst us, and we are no longer interested in trick or treating (well hey, it's free candy so maybe). Instead we are interested in emptying our bank accounts on three different costumes for the weekend. But year after year we tend to see the same costumes and let's be real. They're not original and don't cut it.

1. Cat

The most original costume of them all.

2. Bunny

Regina George may have made this costume unforgettable, but if a teenage girl wears this costume she will most surely be forgettable.

3. Mouse

"I'm a mouse, DUH!" Whether it's Minnie Mouse or a grey mouse costume that you buy from party city, it will never be cute. It's completely overdone and the paint will always smear off your face.

4. Tiger

A black dress and some orange paint on your body is very original, let me tell you! I mean it does look cute though.

5. Cheetah

Black spanks, a black tank, and black pumps REALLY adds to your costume. The ears and the tail just top it off!

6. ANY animal for that matter.

We get it; dressing up as an animal is extremely easy, but it's so overdone! There are tons of more options to choose from!

7. Rosie The Riveter

Rosie the Riveter was one of the most influential figures for women during World War II and yes, she does make a great halloween costume. But it's so overdone and easy to do. So please, do NOT do it!

8. Risky Business

This is one of the easiest group costumes to do and one of the most overdone. If you can attend a party with the theme of "Risky Business" then it's probably not a good halloween costume.

9. French Maid

This costume is sold basically anywhere and is super easy to make. Some fishnets, a white shirt, and a black pencil skirt is basically all you need.

10. School Girl

If you can use your High School uniform for a halloween costume then more power to you. But basically 50% of girls on halloween have worn that costume before.

11. Lumberjack

Wearing an oversized flannel with work boots does NOT count as halloween costume.

12. Nerd

Forget your contacts and keep your glasses on. Oh don't forget the booty shorts and the suspenders! That's all you need for this simplistic costume!

13. Corporate Hoes and CEOS

Once again, if you attend a party with the same theme it is not a substantial halloween costume!

14. Ninja Turtle

Gather four of your best friends and dress up as your favorite turtles! This can either be homemade or store bought! But remember you can't buy originality!

15. Angels and Devils

Hit up your best friend and tag team Halloween night! However, don't let your wings knock anyone out in a cramped party!

Happy Halloween!

For some of us, coming to college was the first time we ever had to share a room. It was a big change, but a fun one. As you meet more and more people over the course of your college career, it seems to be a pattern that you will at some point have that one friend that doesn't live with you, but acts like they do. We call those people, "Honorary Roommates" and here are 11 signs you have one in your life.

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
