It is that time of year again...Halloween: the time to dress like whatever you want, but since you are in college, you are always dressing up between themed parties and mixers. This makes it almost impossible to come up with an original idea. Here our some ideas that are perhaps just close enough to be unique:
FOR THE GROUP OF GIRLS
"Pretty Little Liars":
Why not dress up as the sassy and stylish cast of ABC Family's "Pretty Little Liars." Most of us have been watching the show since 10th grade and although it really desperately needs to end, why not live the melodramatic lives of Allison, Aria, Spencer, Hannah, and Emily. Spoiler Alert **, You can also dress up as A, aka Ce Ce.
"Bring It on":
Yes, being a cheerleader for Halloween is so unoriginal but being a cheerleader as the cast of "Bring It On" makes it a little more interesting. We have all memorized the opening song in the movie so dress up as T-T-Torrance, Missy, Big Red and even their rival team the Clovers.
FOR THE GROUP OF GUYS
"Entourage":
Every friend groups dream, to live the lifestyle of Vince, E, Turtle, Johnny Dramma, and Ari Gold. Wear similar outfits and live out that dream for one night.
"Blue Mountain State":
Another dream guys would love to live in their college years. Yes, being a football player completely overrated but not if you are Thad Castle, Sammy the mascot, Alex Moran, and Craig. Party like you are in the goat house.
FOR THE GROUP OF FRIENDS
"Gossip Girl":
Why not be Manhattans elite for the night and be the most dramatic, scheming, fashionable group of friends. xoxo
"Breaking Bad":
We all wish this show didn't end. With its incredible fifth season and our heartthrob Jesse Pinkman, it is simply unforgettable. So dress up as your favorite character and relive one of television's biggest hits.
FOR COUPLES:
"Dora and Diego"
Cute, quirky, and original; Dress up as the Nick Jr. show with your significant other. You two probably watched as five-year-olds anyway.
"The OC":
My personal favorite show and I am sure many others. "Welcome to the OC bitch!" and lets re-live the Harbor School, kissing booths, overdoses, your mother sleeping with your ex, the epic love of Summer and Set, and Christmakah. Dress up with your significant other and another couple and be the best thing that has ever happened in the early 2000s.
FOR YOURSELF:
Pop Art:
If you are good at art/make up, this is a perfect unique costume opportunity. There are many websites online that teach you how to do makeup so you can look as good as the girl in this photo.
President of your University:
I think it would be fun and interesting to dress up as the president of your university or college, so for UMD you would of course be the beloved President Loh. You may even be able to get a selfie with your alter ego.
