15 Halloween Costumes That Are So Overdone

Halloween was so much simpler when we were younger. Princess costumes, dragon suits, you name it...mom and dad did it all for us. But now Halloweekend is almost amongst us, and we are no longer interested in trick or treating (well hey, it's free candy so maybe). Instead we are interested in emptying our bank accounts on three different costumes for the weekend. But year after year we tend to see the same costumes and let's be real. They're not original and don't cut it.

1. Cat

The most original costume of them all.

2. Bunny

Regina George may have made this costume unforgettable, but if a teenage girl wears this costume she will most surely be forgettable.

3. Mouse

"I'm a mouse, DUH!" Whether it's Minnie Mouse or a grey mouse costume that you buy from party city, it will never be cute. It's completely overdone and the paint will always smear off your face.

4. Tiger

A black dress and some orange paint on your body is very original, let me tell you! I mean it does look cute though.

5. Cheetah

Black spanks, a black tank, and black pumps REALLY adds to your costume. The ears and the tail just top it off!

6. ANY animal for that matter.

We get it; dressing up as an animal is extremely easy, but it's so overdone! There are tons of more options to choose from!

7. Rosie The Riveter

Rosie the Riveter was one of the most influential figures for women during World War II and yes, she does make a great halloween costume. But it's so overdone and easy to do. So please, do NOT do it!

8. Risky Business

This is one of the easiest group costumes to do and one of the most overdone. If you can attend a party with the theme of "Risky Business" then it's probably not a good halloween costume.

9. French Maid

This costume is sold basically anywhere and is super easy to make. Some fishnets, a white shirt, and a black pencil skirt is basically all you need.

10. School Girl

If you can use your High School uniform for a halloween costume then more power to you. But basically 50% of girls on halloween have worn that costume before.

11. Lumberjack

Wearing an oversized flannel with work boots does NOT count as halloween costume.

12. Nerd

Forget your contacts and keep your glasses on. Oh don't forget the booty shorts and the suspenders! That's all you need for this simplistic costume!

13. Corporate Hoes and CEOS

Once again, if you attend a party with the same theme it is not a substantial halloween costume!

14. Ninja Turtle

Gather four of your best friends and dress up as your favorite turtles! This can either be homemade or store bought! But remember you can't buy originality!

15. Angels and Devils

Hit up your best friend and tag team Halloween night! However, don't let your wings knock anyone out in a cramped party!

Happy Halloween!

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.

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.

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.
