COSTUMES! WHAT DO I PICK?

 Hey Ghouls!
With halloween coming up, halloween costumes are flying onto shelves and halloween specialty stores are starting to open up (i.e Halloween Express, Halloween city, etc) and you are starting to get a LOT of costume choices.
Ok Ghouls, I know we all want to be Franken-tastic but where do you start? what do I look for? Have no fear your ghoul friends are here coming to you with our tips on picking the perfect costume for your Halloween.

1. One of the main things to consider while looking for a costume is the price. How much are you willing to spend on a costume? Are you making your own? You have to consider the price of the accessories as well.
2. Consider what kind of costume you want. You don’t have to know what you want to be but it makes it a lot easier when shopping for your costume and you have an idea of what you need.
3. *IMPORTATNT*TRY ON THE COSTUME! You don’t want to get home and try on the outfit then find out that it doesn’t fit. THE MAJORITY OF COSTUMES ARE NON REFUNDABLE so you have just wasted some money on buying an outfit you can’t fit, so to avoid this problem, try on the costume at the store.

4. Get something that you know you would feel comfortable in. Especially if you are a girl. Some women’s costumes are quite revealing and a little short and tight, be sure to get one that you are comfortable wearing. If you aren’t comfy in tight fitting clothes and short clothes then don’t get one of those outfits. 



5. Last but not least HAVE FUN WITH IT! Nothing like having fun while picking out costumes. Halloween is fun and you shouldn’t dread one of the cornerstones of the holiday. If you can’t afford a costume then make your own. This Site offers tips on how to make your own costume and to get your  creativity going. *bonus video above of a fave DIY Costume Tutorial above*
