Happy Halloween!

Hello my freaky darlings and please accept my deepest apologies for my lack of posts!

I know I promised a post for last Monday but things got a little crazy in the kittyverse. I wasn’t too worried though about missing ‘deadlines’ since I don’t really have any followers yet (btw if anyone is reading this please comment to show that I’m not just talking with myself).

Anywho, HAPPY HALLOWEEN MY LOVELIES!

Here in Canada it’s pretty damn wet and cold so it got me thinking about Halloween costumes in general. Women have such crappy options for costumes. Their either super slutty or just plain frumpy.

So today I’m going to talk about things to remember when choosing a costume!

Good for bar not for children's party

Where are you wearing the outfit: Are you going to a bar or to a family party? Will you be indoors or outdoors? All of these are really important to think about. It’s not the best idea to wear a skimpy little number if you plan on heading out to trick-or-treat. It’s also not the best idea to wear a floofy dress to a bar or club.



You say cute, reviews say eww!

Read reviews: Before buying a costume you may want to find websites that allow previous buyers to review the costume. Otherwise you may end up with a train wreck! A lot of costumes may look nice but their reviews could say anything from flimsy material to falls apart easily! Two great sites for reviews are: http://www.spirithalloween.com/ and http://www.buycostumes.com/.

Is this seriously considered 'pus-size'?

Check Sizing: Never ever ever ever EVER assume that the size you usually are is the same as the size of the costume you want to get. Costumes are usually made either too small or too big so once again read reviews!

You will need an under-outfit...TRUST ME!

Underclothes: Some costumes are just too damn short to be appropriate so always be prepared to shell out a few more bucks on petticoats, tights, new bras, etcs. Also remember that you may have to wear full clothing underneath if you don’t want to freeze.


Too hazardous for club

Check Dress Codes: Some bars and clubs have rules for costumes. No masks, no big skirts, etc. So before you shell out the big bucks check the rules! Also if you plan on choosing a costume that just NEEDS the accessory (Freddy’s glove etc) check the rules on those too!


Wig is SO required

To Wig or not to Wig: I hate Halloween wigs. They are crap. But sometimes they make the costume. If you decide to get a wig always think first about whether you can handle the itchy-scratchy-ness that is a Halloween wig (Yes I am a total wig snob).

Apparently this is fat now

Don’t feel bad if it doesn’t fit: Never feel bad if the costume doesn’t fit right. These costumes are made for lingerie models, not normal people! So you will rarely find a costume that fits exactly like you see in the picture.

Have Fun: This may sound stupid but always rember to have fun in costume! Halloween is supposed to be fun! Don’t stress over whether or not you look fat or if someone else has the same costume. This is the one night of the year where you can be anything you want to be!

So I hope that helped or was at least interesting to read. Tomorrow I plan on (finally) posting the second half of my goth story! I promise!

Bright blessings and blessed Samhain,
