Ber Months are in… Halloween Costumes, Anyone?
So the “Ber Months” are in… and what’s the nearest holiday for everybody to enjoy? Yup, Halloween!
For sure, as early as now, people (especially parents and party goers) are already on the hunt for the best halloween costumes.
We remember reading this one parenting magazine where the mom creatively came up with a “picnic” costume for her daughter, and then made a “garbage can” for her other daughter’s costume. And she recycled all that she used for her children’s costumes… like the picnic mat, then the paper plates she attached on the mat…
We had our costume parties before, where we went ala-Retro… cause usually, we just have a 60s, 70s, 80s, kinda party. Now if we are to do yet another party, I’d be a female Joker (just to be crazy, hehe). What I’d do is just get an old gray polo, an old vest (color it green, just to be exact), then skinny jeans, mess my hair, do some crazy clown make-up, and that’s it.. female Joker.
Now, if you want to make a green statement out of your costume this Holloween (where a lot could see you), here are our suggestions:
1. Be Yosi Kadiri’s brother. Remember Yosi Kadiri, the anti-smoking mascot of the Department of Health years back? Come as his brother, be a huge cigarette stick complete with tar and nicotene, and then make sure you’re with someone who’s dressed as a corpse.
2. Wear only “this”. No, not “Titanic”… Go ala-Eve wearing only plants, and shock everybody. You could even carry an ad saying “no-to-fur”, or “Go Green”.
3. Dress up as “Your Name Here” the Grouch. Just wear a black bag, then attach crumpled newspaper, then some tin cans, and then search around for people who’re just throwing their garbage just anywhere, and throw “yours” at him/her. Oops, that may be a meanie, though.
4. Go as Mother Nature. Yes, be a morbid Mother Nature of you want…. Be ethereal but be sure to wear something so horrible looking, then bleed a little, so people would know Mother Nature’s hurting.
5. Come as yourself, only as a corpse. Then wear a sign that says “died because of lung cancer: this is what you did to me”. The guilty would get the drift.
Well, Halloween sure is supposed to be fun, but if you wanna be different, and if you wanna make a statement like what we’ve mentioned before, not minding if you’re to be a party pooper, then try these tips…
If you dont want our suggestions (afraid if being branded a killjoy, perhaps), there’s always buycostumes.com for the best halloween costumes… they are the leading distributor of costumes and costume accessories.
Be green!
