take me out

When it come to picking out your Halloween Costumes for the year, I always like them to be topical, comfortable and affordable. Sure a gorilla suit is always in fashion but what fun is that after the first five minutes and it is time to have some snacks or drinks? It was always much easier when you were a kid, you simply dressed in your favourite TV or book character or else you simply went as a pirate or 'an Indian.' And you always did the Tick or Treat for UNICEF because it meant more candy, er, it was the right thing to do. (It took us a while to see why but we did in the end).

As an adult the rules are all different. There is the 'couples costume' issue to think about, if that applies. If you are a woman there is also the 'Sexy ___' issue. You know, where you take a men's costume, show some cleavage or a little leg and it becomes 'sexy.' Easy but do you really want to go to work as a sexy elmo? I mean, you do have to show up to work again on Monday.

Me? I always wanted to go as Adam Ant but could never find just the right "dandy highwayman" jacket. Fortunately, with the great selection and low prices at halloweenadventure.com I may have to rethink this year's endevour....
