6 Pop-Culture Costumes for Your Best Halloween Yet

What a year it's been thus far in 2016. For better or for worse, it's been a year to remember. With that being said, 2016 has given us the truly wonderful gift of endless Halloween costume ideas—what luck! Check out these six festive get-ups that will surely get you on the "Best Costume" list.

1. Stranger Things

Obviously, this Netflix original took off like wild fire this summer, so why not pay tribute to the BRILLIANT show by dressing up like Joyce from Stranger Things?Christmas lights and all.

2. Donald Trump

I mean this one is kind of a no-brainer, but if Republican candidate Donald Trump did not cross your mind as someone to impersonate on Halloween this year (I mean it's quite simple, isn't it?), I think you might want to give this a look. To be honest, all you really need to perfect is the hair.


3. Simone Biles

To all my sporty gals out there, this is for you! Embrace your inner-Olympian this Halloween by dressing up as Summer Olympics all-star, Simone Biles. All you need is a red leotard and fake medal (gold, obvi!). Warning: You may feel prone to prancing around and attempting stunts at your Halloween party--refrain from this!


4. Pokémon Go! Trainer

Thank God that this is a fad. I did not partake in this interesting activity, but nonetheless, it is an important part of Summer 2016 culture. Dress up in your BEST trainer attire and don't forget to create your own Pokéball. Best of all, it's Halloween, so no pressure to to catch 'em all!



5. SnapChat Filters

Calling all basic ladies! This is an easy costume that everyone who uses Snap Chat will recognize. Which is practically EVERY millennial on the planet, right? Pick your favorite filter, whether it's puppy dog or throwing up a rainbow. Perhaps, some adorable dog ears and a make-shift puppy tongue attached to a popsicle stick. #NoFilter


6. "Becky With the Good Hair"

This one could be a bit of a stretch, but I have no doubt that anyone who pays even the smallest bit of attention to pop culture would understand it. Go get your hair all dolled up at a blow-out bar and then rock some jeans, and a simple t-shirt with a name tag that says "Becky." Maybe hold a hair brush as well.

There you have it, kiddos. Some great Halloween costume ideas from none other than perhaps the most bizarre year in a millennial's life. Have fun, be safe and eat an absurd amount of candy!

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

pale girl

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
