Halloween Costumes We Should Say Goodbye To

Be original & not so cliché

Halloween Costumes We Should Say Goodbye To

Halloween...the one day of the year that you can be ANYTHING or ANYONE you wish. Why settle for the typical costumes that more and more people try to recreate each year?

1. Police Officer

Let's be honest, at one point we've all thought about this very overdone costume. It's easy to recreate and still looks hot, but at every Halloween party, there are always at least two different versions.




2. The Playboy Bunny/ Sexy Bunny

Even though this was the fabulous Elle Woods' outfit of choice, that doesn't mean you have to try it out again. Odds are you won't look twice as hot as she did.

3. Sexy Cat

Probably the easiest and cheapest costume there is and excuse my wording but BASIC, too. Throw on your go-to most likely over-worn, see-through black leggings, a too small/ low cut black tank and some ears from the dollar store and BOOM: A costume.

4. Angel/Devil

The costume that you think, "OMG let's go as an angel and devil, it describes our personalities so well." I can guarentee there are many other costumes that describe you just as well.


5. Disney Princess

I can't even hate on this one as much as others because I was the Little Mermaid last year....BUT come on, way to ruin your childhood with making it as skimpy as possible. There are only so many Disney princess' you can portray and they are usually done in a group as it is. Last year, girls thought they were being original dressing up as the new princess Elsa, from Disney's Frozen...unfortunately, everyone was thinking the same thing.


Changing things up a bit. I have to be fair and also talk about overdone men's costumes.

6. Construction Worker

I can't even think of the amount of times I have gone out and seen a thrown together/last minute construction worker costume. Jean's, a hat, and vest is all it takes.

7. Doctor

I understand there are many drunk college guys who think it's funny to be a doctor or dare I say gynecologist running around from party to party...but like you would tell us... STOP being so generic/basic. Plus, you will never look like McDreamy or McSteamy.

8. Cowboy

Flannel, Jean's, cowboy hat and, if they're REALLY prepared, a pair of cowboy boots...need I say more?


9. Clark Kent

This is for all of the guys out there who think they are being original. Well...sorry guys, but every Halloween I see at least a few men dressed up as this, sporting fake glasses, a superman shirt and button up.

10. Pimp

First off...why would you even want to be this one day of the year? No, girls will think you're hot or funny...most likely kinda dumb looking, actually. In my own experience, I've found that the one that dresses up as a pimp and craves attention is usually the most drunk idiot.

THE MOST OVERDONE COUPLES COSTUME.....

11. Danny and Sandy

The movie, Grease came out 37 years ago and a plethora of couples each year show it's not going out of style as a costume anytime soon. Even though I must agree Danny and Sandy are two iconic movie characters..."You better shape up" and give other couples in history a chance!

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
