Erzsébet Báthory

noreply@blogger.com (Halloween Blogger) — Tue, 06 Mar 2012 18:48:00 +0000

Last year I was on vacation overseas and during my travels I drove past an old castle of interest. Now with the remains of castles everywhere you look in this part of the world, I wondered what could possibly make this one so special. Well, it was revealed to me that this was the castle of Erzsébet Báthory. So for those of you who are unaware of her significance to stories of past and present, she was one of the real life people that the vampire craze was based on. Some say she may have been a closer mirror of what Bram Stoker's Dracula was, than even Vlad III Dracula himself. This reminded me of how popular the vampire culture has been for the last decade or so. That's why a vampire costume should be a staple in everyone's closet, like a little black dress. This is a costume that should never need to be returned. But if you bought the wrong size and must return it, make sure it hasn't been opened.

Pirates of the Caribbean

noreply@blogger.com (Halloween Blogger) — Tue, 06 Mar 2012 18:11:00 +0000

Okay, after a conversation over coffee with friends last week I decided to do a little research about the possibility of a new Pirates of the Caribbean movie. Low and behold, I found out that Disney is playing with the possibility of TWO new movies in the series. I was really excited to find this bit of news out. I mean, who doesn't love the story based on the Disneyland ride? Come to think about it, of the people who have been to Disneyland, who doesn't like the ride itself? Anyhow, it looks like Johnny Depp is in serious talks about staying on board as Jack Sparrow. And Will Turner, also known as, Orlando Bloom has been heard as saying he'd be interested in continuing the tradition. So that unused pirate costume you have may come in handy after-all. But if you must return your costume to the costume store, make sure it's brand new and unopened!

Don't return it, reuse it!

Looking to plan the perfect Halloween party for your kids and all of their friends this year? Better get ahead of the game and start planning now. By the time you choose your date and send out invitations, many of the weekends in October might be out of bounds. Better to get things sent out sooner rather than later, as people's calendars tend to fill up during Halloween month. Not to mention, once you've secured a date and sent out invitations, you'll need to have a lag time for RSVPs, so you can figure out how many supplies you'll need to get. For instance, do you need twenty plates or fifty? Do you definitely want to serve cake? What about the ghouls to sit in the front yard? Will they arrive in time? Then you'll need cups and napkins to serve your food, and you'll need to hit up all your favorite cooking blogs to find the best Halloween recipes. Need a one stop shop for all your party decorations and supplies? Look no further than Halloween adventure. From plates and cups and plastic cutlery to spooky porch perching vampires and ghosts, we've got everything you need to throw an incredible Halloween party. Deck the tables out in spooky Halloween plastic tablecloths, and stick Bloody Clings on the windows and doors. Now, get shopping!

Still have those old Captain America costumes? Bring them out!

noreply@blogger.com (sarah) — Sat, 06 Aug 2011 19:23:00 +0000

This summer has brought with it many a movie blockbuster, but our favorite has got to be the new rendering of one of the most under-rated superhero stories out there: that of Captain America. In the old film, originally made in the eighties, and based off of a comic book series, Captain America is the alter ego of an ordinary guy named Steve Rogers, who volunteers to the undergo a medical treatment that will turn him from frail into super strong. As the story goes, Rogers is enhanced to the peak of human perfection - practically indestructible - by an experimental serum in order to help aid the United States war effort. In the comic books, which were introduced during World War II, Captain America repeatedly saves his country from the dangers of war. He wears a costume that bears the motif of the American flag, and is armed with an indestructible shield that can also be thrown as a weapon. During the war, the Captain America comics were extremely popular; giving Americans a hero they could believe in during a troubled time.

This summer's movie reboot saw Chris Evans take on the role of Rogers, and the results, if we do say so ourselves, were pretty spectacular. The movie has everything a good summer blockbuster should: action, love, and of course, morals - the good guy triumphs over evil. Looking to get dressed up as Captain America for Halloween? Here's what you'll need:
For adults - our Captain America adult costume, complete with flag motif shirt and mask.
For kids - our Classic Captain America Child Costume, as well as the matching shield.
For ladies - our Captain American Shield Bag, the perfect kick butt purse.
For all - our Deluxe Captain America gloves, a bright red superhero staple.

Are you Ready for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2?

noreply@blogger.com (sarah) — Thu, 07 Jul 2011 15:02:00 +0000

We can't lie - we're pretty darn excited for next weekend's release of the final chapter of the positively epic Harry Potter series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2. Part 1 of the film, which was broken into two parts because the final edition of the popular book series was so action-packed, was incredible. We were smart enough to bring tissues and lots of candy into the film the first time around, and we ended up blowing our nose multiple times thanks to some serious tearjerker moments. We're such Part 2 will be more of the same, and as it brings an end to the incredible series about a young wizard fighting for good to triumph over evil, we're betting we won't be the only ones wearing our Harry Potter gear to the theater.

What about you? Have you dressed up for the Harry Potter premieres in the past? If so, we'd love to see photos! Leave us some links in the comments! In the meantime, here's the gear you'll need to hit the theater in style next week. In the past, we've hit up the theater when it's a bit chillier outside; for Part 1 of the Deathly Hallows, we sported our glasses and our Gryffindor scarf. Now that it's 90 plus degrees out in many areas of the country, however, we're thinking a scarf might be a bit too much. Guys can sport this great Gryffindor tie, and ladies can rock Harry's signature round glasses. For those who dare to go all out, might we recommend a Hogwarts school robe? Kids might even delight in donning a dementor costume. Want more Harry Potter? Check out all our Harry Potter costumes and Harry Potter accessories here.

Wigs Donald Trump Could Use

noreply@blogger.com (sarah) — Tue, 07 Jun 2011 20:34:00 +0000

We'll admit it - we're fans of The Donald. Not that we think he should ever, ever run for President (really, Donald?) but we like the guy. We love to say, "You're FIRED!" at any opportune moment. We love his daughter Ivanka. She's pretty and lives a modern day fairytale with The Donald for a dad. But most of all, we love The Donald's toupe. Because let's face it, that thing is legend! It always looks as though it's in danger of slipping off his head, which, we'd imagine, is quite bald and shiny. We think Donald could do with some new hairpieces - perhaps ones that don't look so fake. Or maybe, he should go in the opposite direction, and embrace his hairlessness. In this situation, he could go totally crazy and rock a variety of awesome wigs. We've got a slew of great wigs at Halloween Adventure, and we're thinking that a bunch of them would suit the Donald should he agree to ditch his toupe and loosen up a bit.

For starters, we'd absolutely love to see Donald in an Elvis wig. Can't you see him totally rocking it? We can picture it now...the Donald, dancing to Blue Suede Shoes. If he's looking for even more hair, might we recommend the Wolverine wig? Hugh Jackman ain't got nothing on this baby! Of course, he could always go the townie route, and rock some stringy brown hair beneath a blue cap - hey, celebrities are always talking about how they wished they had more privacy! We'd also love to see him take a trip back in time with our 70s teen icon wig...ohh, Donald! In short, there's a whole lot Donald Trump could do with that mess on the top of his head that he calls hair. Donald, call us!

You Won't Want to Return These Witch Costumes

noreply@blogger.com (sarah) — Mon, 11 Oct 2010 20:03:00 +0000

Even scarier than the ghosts we discussed in our last post are the witches of All Hallows Eve. Grab some girlfriends and do a take on Angelica Houston in the remake of the Roald Dahl book The Witches, or pull out some pink smoke and recreate Hocus Pocus.

Who said witches were all scare and no sass? Our Sexy Black Witch costumeis a little bit of both. You'll turn heads as you ride in on your broom with this costume. The Black Witch costume includes: short black dress with lace trim and side stitching, and rumpled black witches hat.

Go classic creepy with our Classic Witch Adult Costume. This classic witch costume includes a long-sleeved black button front shirt, long black skirt with elastic waist, cape, and a matching black witch hat with attached scarf. All you need is a broom and an angry, evil cackle to go with it.

Ladies with curves, don’t let those skinny minnies have all the fun. Go evil goddess with our Elegant Witch Adult Plus Size costume. Costume includes a sexy black dress with shredded bell sleeves and a shredded bottom, as well as a witch hat with belt. This costume is both freaky and fabulous!

Sexy girls with little to no shame will love our Fairytales Witch Costume, a sizzling getup that includes a colorful mini dress with tattered tulle in the skirt and a bustier at the top, as well as a colorful hat with dangling spider at the end. Get lost in the forest in this costume. Hansel won’t know what hit him!

Teens can try our Glitter Witch Teen Costume, and adorable sassy outfit that includes a glittery minidress with long shredded sleeves and tulle bottom. Hat isn’t included, so snag one here.

Divas of darkness will love our Goth Maiden Witch Adult Costume, a dazzling confection that includes a full-length black and gold gown with sheer sleeves and velvet panels, as well as a matching hat.

Any witch you choose, remember that no costume is complete without a lot of attitude and a maniacal laugh. Channel the ladies of Hocus Pocus and come with your own smoke machine, or carry “treats” in your pocket for those little kids who just don’t know any better (just kidding!). Have fun!

Don't Return That Couples Costume!

noreply@blogger.com (sarah) — Wed, 08 Sep 2010 17:38:00 +0000

Make like Sonny and Cher, one of the most famous couples in Hollywood history (way before Brad and Angie were around) and pick up one of our “I got you babe” Costumes. This crazy number includes purple pants for him and gold bell-bottoms for her, plus a whole lot of rainbow tie-dye. You’re bringing sexy back, old school style.

For those more in the mood for something guaranteed to have neighbors in stitches (and maybe, send kids running), check out our Adam and Eve Couples Costume. This amazing getup is one size fits all, and includes two flesh-toned jumpsuits with strategically placed leaves. It’s hilarious, it’s badass, and it’s an homage to the couple who started it all.

Speaking of funny, our Nuts and Bolts Couples Costume is absolutely ridiculous in the best of ways. This costume is easy as can be, and features lame covered foam oversized “metal” pieces with adjustable waistbands. Now all that’s left to wonder is whether his bolt will fit inside your nut…

Another “will it fit?” party favorite is our Plug and Socket Couples Costume. This set includes a black and grey socket tunic for her and a white plug costume for him. Both costumes are made of light yet durable fabric. This Halloween duo will have party guests requesting demos all night long.

Hungry? Too bad, cause our Bacon and Eggs Adult Costume isn’t for dinner. It is, however, for Halloween! This fabulous set includes one bacon tunic and one egg tunic, both in one size fits all. You might have to remind people that you’re not for dinner, but you’ll definitely get them staring!

Head On Down the Rabbit Hole!

noreply@blogger.com (sarah) — Tue, 24 Aug 2010 19:06:00 +0000

ALICE IN WONDERLAND COSTUMES

This Halloween, go down the rabbit hole and follow Alice around Wonderland. This famous trippy tale is the perfect story to model your Halloween costumes around, as there are millions of characters to mimic. Just be careful you don’t try anything labeled “eat me.” As Alice has taught us, those little mushrooms can be bad news!

Ladies can start with our Alice Adult Fairytale Classics Costume. Includes a blue satin dress with attached apron, and a black headband. You may want to practice a perfect British accent with a hint of ditz, as we’re aware Alice wasn’t the brightest crayon in the box. We recommend carrying around a tea cup, or at least some of those valentines hearts as props.

Go the opposite route with our Alice in Gothland costume. A riff off the Alice tale, this costume is sexy, spicy, and any other word you’d never associate with the original Alice. The costume includes dress with attached petticoat, apron, choker, headband, and gloves. It may not be typical, but it’s definitely a welcome change!

Oh! It’s the white rabbit! He’s late, he’s late, for a very important date! Channel the white furry friend in this fabulous tale with our Alice in Wonderland Classic White Rabbit Hat. Make sure you can find the Mad Hatter, because you know there’s a tea party to attend! Make this costume even better by adding a long pocket watch.

Go all out rabbit in our Deluxe White Rabbit Adult Costume. It includes rabbit body, feet, mitts, vest, jacket, watch and hat. This one’s sure to have you right on the money, as it’s as perfect of an imitation as a human could get! Whiskers aren’t included, but we’d recommend drawing them on and adding a pink nose!

Who could forget the deliriously ridiculous Mad Hatter? Replicate the ridiculous in our Mad Hatter Adult Fairytale Classics Costume. Would you like some more tea, my dear? Oh, never mind that you haven’t had a first cup! Includes Multi-color hat, Orange jacket, Light Green pants, and vest with tie.

Mimic the dumbest twins ever (or perhaps, just the most devious!) in ourTweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum costume. Costume includes a one piece jumpsuit with attached suspenders, bowtie, and propeller hat. For a look that’s nearly identical to the one in the famous Disney film, try this one.

Save Those Little Mermaid Costumes!

noreply@blogger.com (sarah) — Tue, 24 Aug 2010 19:02:00 +0000

One of the most beloved Disney princesses in the world, Ariel’s sweet voice and adorable demeanor won the hearts of merpeople and mortals alike. Now there are various sequels and prequels to the Disney film, and there’s even a show on Broadway! What better time than this Halloween to dress up like your favorite underwater characters?

Start with the girl everyone loves with our Ariel Deluxe Adult Costume. Costume comes with a bodice, skirt/fin and attached cameo. Try a mother and daughter duo costume with our Ariel Deluxe Child Costume. Kid’s costume is a top quality ensemble that includes a full-length Green velvet dress with iridescent detail. Mimic Ariel’s long red hair with our Silver Screen Sensation Wig or our Sultry Deluxe Wig in Natural Red. Girls can try our Ariel Wig, which features bright red hair that matches Disney Ariel’s perfectly!

Top Five Scariest Costumes for Girls

TOP FIVE SCARIEST CHILDREN’S COSTUMES FOR GIRLS

We know most girls prefer to be pretty princesses on Halloween, but we also know there are some girls who are just born to be bad and want to rock it scary-style while they Trick or Treat. So, we’ve created a list just for those girls, a list of costumes so scary you might swear you accidentally switched your child with someone’s zombie.

For those who want one foot in the water and one foot out, try ourDazzling Devil Children’s Costume. This Dazzling Devil is adorable in red and black. Dress has black trim hem and criss-cross front panel, and sheer red flowing sleeves. Also included are red headband horns and of course a pointed red tail. Perfect for those who want a little bit of scare and a little bit of pretty!

Feeling bad? Try our Snow White Evil Queen Teen Costume. This officially licensed Disney costume is a perfect way to illustrate that you’re smart, evil and you mean business! It features a great bluish purple silk dress with batwing sheer sleeves with gold detailing, as well as a fabulous foam collar, emblem, hood and of course, a crown! If Snow White’s lessons are any indication, a girl in this costume is not to be messed with.

Scary Harry Potter fans will fawn over our Death Eater Bellatrix Children’sCostume. Our Female Death Eater Bellatrix costume comes complete with dress with cummerbund and attached hood, and mask. This costume is perhaps the scariest female costume we’ve got! Just picture Bellatrix broadcast widescreen in the movies with that terribly maniacal laugh. Channel her evil and go to town! Just remember, death eaters may scare younger children, so wear with caution.

Practice your kung-fu moves in our Jewel Dragon Ninja Costume. This costume is only as scary as you make it, so learning some karate is advisable! You’ve got to be able to show off the skills to match your outfit! Includes a polyester jumpsuit, princess satin vest with character screen print dragon and face mask.

Brother and sister teams can rock our Pirate costumes. For girls, check outourPirate Girl Elite Collection Child Costume. It includes: Mid-length dress, gold trimmed lace-up vinyl vest, tulle petticoat, sash, bandana and jeweled choker.Yo, ho, ho and a bottle of… juice? We know you’re too young for rum, but that doesn’t mean you can rock this bad to the bone costume!

Are You Sure You Want to Return that Food Costume?

noreply@blogger.com (sarah) — Fri, 06 Aug 2010 20:42:00 +0000

Alright, so you can't actually eat these - but they look good enough to eat, don't you think? Ok, so we know it’s not exactly candy, but who can resist thisGingerbread Man Costume? Featuring painted on facial features, as well as detailing on the arms and painted on buttons, this costume is a large jumpsuit with a matching mask.

Ladies with no shame can try ourStrawberry Tart Adult Costume. This one’s sweet as pie (or should we say tart?) and includes dress in Strawberry Red with white collar, built in wire hoop at bottom, white boot tops and the fabulous Strawberry style wig. It’s silly sweetness at its best!

If you like our Strawberry Tart, you’ll absolutely die for our Pumpkin Spice Adult Costume. This one, like it’s strawberry sister, isn’t for the faint of heart, but it’s an adorable getup of confectionary goodness. It includes dress in Pumpkin orange with built in wire hoop at bottom, white boot tops and the fabulous Pumpkin style wig. When else can you wear a bright orange wig and get away with it?

Feeling a need for nature’s sweetness? Check out our Purple Grapes Fruit Funny Halloween Costume. Includes Purple tunic with pockets for balloons and leaf, hood, and balloons*. Pair with some of our other "food" costumes for a humorous group costume! Just beware; it might be hard to fit through doors! You can also try the green version of this costume.

Looking for something a bit more filling? Try our Hot Dog Funny Halloween Costume. This one’s a guaranteed crowd pleaser, a one-piece costume that goes on easily over the head. It even features a stripe of mustard down the middle, and best of all, you won’t smell like food even though you’re wearing it!

Make it a couple’s costume with our Ketchup Bottle Funny Food Adult Costume.This one piece suit includes a funny “cap” hat, and even reads “ketchup” across the front, just in case a few stupid people can’t tell what you are.

Happy Fourth of July!

noreply@blogger.com (sarah) — Thu, 01 Jul 2010 16:24:00 +0000

We’ve got a birthday to celebrate! In just a couple of days America will turn 233 years old! Everyone seems to celebrate it in one way or another, or at least acknowledge it.

I just say the words, ”4th of July” and immediately you’ve got images of fireworks, parades, and barbeques flooding your mind. Everything isred, white, and blue. Uncle Sam has a big grin and is dancing about in the streets. Flags are waving away and there’s an overall feeling of happiness, right? At the very least, most of us think of the 4th of July as the start of summer and spend some time outside basking or playing in the sun – slathered in sunscreen, of course.

Here’s some interesting facts you may not know about Independence Day. Share them with your friends and family and you’ll look utterly brilliant, and, no doubt be the life of the party on the 4th of July.

The first Independence Day was celebrated on July 8th, 1776 – not on the 4th!
The 4th of July wasn’t even a federal legal holiday until 1941!
In 1776 there were 2.5 million people in the 13 original colonies. Last year on the 4th, there were 302 million in 50 states.
The US imported about $216 million of fireworks in 2006, with $206 million from China.
We also imported $5.3 million in flags – again, mostly from China.
Americans eat more than 150 million hot dogs on the 4th of July!

Throw on your party clothes and celebrate Uncle Sam’s birthday. Do it in style. Red, white, and blue is the way to go - whether you’re in a bikini, shorts and a t-shirt, or a suit. Top off the look with a party hat just right for the occasion. We’ve got yourtraditional Uncle Sam top hat! You just can’t go wrong with these! They are all really well-made and fun. I love the quality of these and the velvet-like material they are made out of. They are comfy as can be and hold their shape fantastically. And they all have this great little feature - size adjusters inside. You can make them fit your head perfectly. This comes in really handy for me – being of the more compact size than most.

These are these are the perfect party-hat for whatever type of birthday celebration you may having for our country this year. I’m thinking — great with a bikini at the beach or in the stadium watching some killer fireworks extravaganza.

So get out there – watch those parades, hit the beaches, light up the grill, oooh and aaahhh over fireworks, wave your flags, blow your horns this Independence Day. Celebrate! It’s party-time!
