11 "Sexy" Halloween Costumes That Took It Too Far

Ah Halloween! The one time of the year that girls can dress a bit more scandalously than they normally would and not get judged (openly at least). Yet when the costume market decided to capitalize on this, things got really weird. Maybe girls got tired of showing up to Halloween frat parties only to find that they're one of about 20 sexy cops or maybe designers liked the challenge of seeing how many of our favorite childhood characters they could "sexify." While there are sexy costumes that get it right, here's a list of sexy halloween costumes that got it all wrong.

1. "Funny Snowman" 

Obviously this costume is based on Olaf from "Frozen" but the company couldn't name it that without avoiding the wrath of Disney. Why you would want to don a ridiculous carrot nose that may or may not allow you to breathe is kind of beyond me. Also, wearing all white on one of the craziest party nights of the year is begging for some frat bro to "accidentally" spill his beer all over you. Be careful girl. 


2. Yoda

The only thing that makes this a Yoda costume is the vaguely Yoda-like hat, but other than that it could very well be a brown bikini set with a tan robe. The Yoda eyes don't exactly scream, "Hey come talk to me!" either. 


3. Chucky

I first saw this movie as a child and it absolutely terrified me. Murderous dolls just can't be made sexy, folks.


4. French Fries

If it didn't explicitly say "Hot Fries" on the probably-too-short skirt, I'd have no idea what this costume is.


5. Pizza 

Pizza on your plate? Sexy! Dressing as pizza? Not so much. 


6. Big Bird

I loved Big Bird as a kid but this costume makes it look like he's casually eating your head. No biggie though. 


9. Chinese Take Out 

Do you really want to be mildly offensive while reminding people of the month-old leftovers in the back of their fridge that they've long forgotten about? Didn't think so. 


10. Dorothy

There are so many cute and appropriate Dorothy costumes that will let you click your ruby red heels as many times as your heart desires. Then there's this. 


11. Little Bo Peep

Can we just all agree that nursey rhyme characters are NOT meant to be sexy?

Halloween is the time of year to dress up and get creative! So have fun, but try to keep it appropriate!

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
