Advice For Men: Creating A Clever Halloween Costume

|
It may behoove you to stand out from the rest of the ghouls on
Halloween. Studies show 63.7% of women lower their inhibitions
on this spooky holiday.
As the leaves start to change and the brisk autumn breezes begin
to blow, you will inevitably be hit with that annoying question,
"What are you going to be for Halloween?" And just like every
other year, you will be completely dumbfounded and caught off
guard like Brittney Spears exiting a limousine. And don't even
pretend like you don't yearn for an amazingly awesome,
talk-of-the-party, unforgettable costume. Well, guess what? I
will make your wildest dreams come true. Well, not your wildest,
but I might spark some good ideas for this year's fright fest.
Women have it easy. They can get away with showing a little skin
and discretely placing the word "sexy" before any costume's
title (i.e. sexy pirate, sexy bumble bee, etc.) and will look
great. Unfortunately, if you are member of the male gender, you
are forced to think up a clever costume because stuffing your
out-of-shape body into a Speedo will be a little too scary.
How should you get noticed this Halloween? Well gentlemen, show
off the sexiest part of you body--you mind. Sporting a smart and
well-thought out costume can show off your creativity and
humor--and women love a guy who can make them laugh.
First of all, make sure they are laughing with you--not at you.
If you can't remember the last time you got to the gym, you
should probably stay away from spandex. I know a big belly can
be a sign of power and wealth in some cultures; unfortunately in
America this is not the case. So tip numero uno: Wear a costume
that will be comfortable all night. I come from the northeast
where the temperatures dip down to the single digits by October.
One of my costume's required a pair of hot pants and a
t-shirt--not the best idea. I was freezing all night and almost
caught pneumonia.
I'm not going to give you actual ideas because that wouldn't be
creative. Rather, I will guide you on coming up with your own
original concept. You should start by making your costume custom
tailored to you. For instance, if your name is Matt you could
paste a bunch of linoleum flooring pieces all over your body and
wear a "Hello my name is: Matt" sticker and go as a floor mat.
Feel free to get creative and build off this idea--there are a
lot of different types of mats out there. If your name if Mike,
think of an idea where you can have a "mic." A personal costume
is great for sparking conversations and introductions.
In addition to incorporating your name into the costume,
construct an outfit that will engage others. Maybe design a pair
of overalls made from an old twister mat. This way the ladies
will literally have their hands all over you. I recommend
working any popular, old school game into your costume. People
love nostalgia--can't get enough of it.
Not impressed by the ideas thus far? Already tossed your hungry,
hungry hippos? Try to expand your thinking. Think outside the
box. Hey, that's an idea! Make a hat with a box attached to it
and you will literally be thinking "outside the box." Phrases
like that can make clever costumes. Also consider working food
into your outfit, for a "tasty" idea. There's nothing like
showing how "sweet" you are than covering yourself in lollipops.

Hopefully this helps get your creative juices flowing. I hope I don't see a million auto floor mats this Halloween; you're better than that. At least come up with your own brand and write something like Weathertech all over.
