Halloween costume novelty
Keep in mind that once you hit the streets, you are sure to run in plenty of vampires, ghosts, and recent movie persona. So if you are hoping to stand out at the bar or be the life of the party, you may want to try and discover a Halloween costume that is more unique. If you do choose to go with a clich? Halloween spook, think about doing something about it that will help you stand out from everyone else.
One way to do this is to make your own Halloween costume. However, for most people, this is more difficult than it sounds, and the finished product may leave much to be desired. An easier choice is to go to online Halloween costume stores. These will offer a much wider choices than your local costume retailer, allowing you to find something that is different from everyone else.
Restrooms and crowded locations
If you are headed out to the bar or to a party, not all costumes are going to work. For instance, if you are going to go out for a few cocktails, then there is a good chance you will want to visit the restroom at some point in the evening. A costume that is tough to get in and out of can make this a problem. If there is going to be a large amount of people in a small room, then over sized Halloween costumes can make it burdensome to move around. Watch out for the sizes of objects like wings and other accessories to make mobility easier.
Watch your layers
While sexy Halloween costumes can be great for an indoor party, wearing one out on a cold Halloween night to take the kids trick-or-treating can leave you shivering. On the other hand, the well-insulated gorilla suit can cause you to pass out from heat exhaustion in the center of a crowded party. So ponder where you will be on Halloween night and choose your costume accordingly. If there is going to be a variety of venues, consider a costume that has removable layers so you can adapt it for the weather.
Carrying your essentials on Halloween
Ever notice that Wonder Woman never carries a purse? If you are going out on Halloween night, you will need to consider how you are going to carry your essentials like your wallet and lipstick. Many costumes do not have pockets, so you might need to get creative with how you do this. Look for accessories that can double as a bag or purse. Hidden wallets like are created for travelers will also work well with some costumes as a hideaway for your currency or ID.
If you plan early, your Halloween costume will prove to be less of a pain and more suited for partying.

Save the Mask for Halloween
With Halloween just around the corner, it got me thinking about masks - not in the costume sense, but rather in the way we hide our true selves from others.When we were little, wearing masks was all about playing make believe and pretending to be someone else just for fun. But as we get older and the pressure to fit in gets bigger, we may wear a mask to try and get others to like us or accept us into the group. Before long, we get so good at fooling others that eventually we wind up deceiving ourselves because even we don't know who we really are. We all have our roles in life; student, son, daughter, mother, father, teacher, friend. But there may be roles that we play and masks we wear that we may not even be aware of and that may be kee...
