Halloween Costume Guide 2016

I can already imagine the drinking games I am going to form this Halloween...

"Take a shot for every Harley Quinn costume," "Shotgun a beer for every girl who is scandal clothed and is wearing some form of animal ears." Hello, Mean Girls.

Don't show up at a party dressed exactly like 15 other girls, and automatically get judged for being basic. I saved you the hassle and combed through Pinterest to find some of the simplest-but-still unique costumes for 2016.

#1- Its Raining Cats & Dogs

I know this is shown as a child's costume, but honestly? I would 10/10 dress as this as a 21-year-old. DIY-ing this punny getup would be as simple as glueing some stuffed animals on an umbrella.


#2: Spongebob Action

I still watch SpongeBob to this day, so there really is no better best friends costume than Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy, (other than being SpongeBob and Patrick, obvi).



#3 SOA

I have to throw in at least one couples costume in hopes my boyfriend will read this and actually dress as a couple this year (fingers crossed). What better way to show your favorite tv show some love while looking like a couple of bad-ass MC babes.


#4 Bobs Burgers

If Louise isn't your spirit animal, we cannot be friends. This costume is simple and easily recognizable. The best part, you can throw this look together in under ten minutes. Score.


#5 Brr

I love this Halloween look because it's simple, cute, and classy. This is a costume your mother and grandma would approve of, while still looking scrumptious.



#6 Tooth Fairy

Yes. This is 100% me. This costume is for the girls (or boys) who want to put some effort into their getup. The toothbrush crown? Slay.



#7 Pinup Barbie

Speaking of slaying....this pinup, retro Barbie look is giving me life. If you're a makeup genius, this is the look for you. Sexy and classic.



#8 Clueless

Nothing says Halloween quite like Cher...and not the singer. Plus, any guy who doesn't know who you are is too young for you and you just saved yourself. #yourewelcome



#9 Magical AF

This costume is for the girls who live to experiment with makeup and kill it every time. Nothing says "untouchable" like a fucking unicorn. The hair, the makeup, the body makeup, the wings, everything. Goals.


Love,

-A

But sometimes it's necessary to indulge in some guilty pleasures as well as just doing things because you can. And honestly, a lot of the time it's inevitable.

A Deep Dive Into Taylor Swift’s Albums: 1989 (Taylor’s Version) Edition

I just know that the idea of releasing vault tracks came out of the moment Taylor remembered she wrote 'Is It Over Now?'

A Deep Dive Into Taylor Swift’s Albums: 1989 (Taylor’s Version) Edition
Edited by Hailey Hastings

I am fully emersed into diving deep into every single Taylor Swift album, which I do on my own all the time, but wanted to do it in a way where I am sharing what a special discography she has. I feel like 1989 is the perfect place to start, it's an era that changed everything, and will always be an album people automatically think of when you say "Taylor Swift."
