Top 10 Basic Halloween Costumes

It's that time of year again! Fall is in the air, the leaves are changing, and pumpkin spice surrounds you. With just a few weeks left before the infamous "Hallo-weekend", you've probably started to think about how you're going to dress up. Each year you try to think of a unique, creative costume that will turn heads, and each year you're stuck. There are a few costumes, however, that always cross your mind. These are the top ten basic halloween costumes.

1. Black Cat

Classic. You're scrambling last minute to find something that will make you look hot. The black cat is your go-to because it literally only requires ears and black clothing. Meow.

2. Bunny

Similar to the cat, this look is simple; the main focus is bunny ears! Other than that, you can pretty much throw together whatever you want. For some reason, this costume tends to have minimal clothing.

3. Devil

Want to show off your bad side but still look cute? Devil it is.

4. Victoria's Secret Angel

Well, since you can't be one in real life, you might as well pretend when you get the chance.

5. Risky Business

All you need to do is borrow your guy friend's dress shirt, throw on some socks, and tie it all together with a cool pair of shades. Timeless.

6. Schoolgirl

Smart is sexy, right?

7. Sports Player

You'll probably be the least athletic football player in your short-shorts and eye black. But hey, at least you tried.

8. Military Girl

Got camo? Done.

9. Rosie The Riveter

This is a great way to show off your feminist side, and still get a chance to rock red lipstick and a bandana. You go, girl.

10. Frat Boy

Last, but definitely not least, the frat star. This is similar to Risky Business, with the classic dress shirt, however being a frat star is not only about the costume. It's about the attitude, too.

There's nothing wrong with keeping it simple. After all, we are lazy, broke college kids. And, there's no doubt that there will be countless of these basic costumes at every single party you attend this Halloween. So, either join the crowd and break out your cat ears, or start brainstorming something legendary.

Happy Halloween!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
