There are a million and one things to love about October. From the beautiful colors of the trees changing, the smells of apple cinnamon wafting almost everywhere, and of course the excitement of getting to finally drink a pumpkin spice latte once again. But the most exciting part about October is the last day of the month, the one and only, Halloween.
Halloween is huge on eating massive amounts of candy, but also getting to dress up as anything you want for a night. Unfortunately, there is so much judgement on what people wear, if their costume is clever enough, or if there is too much skin showing.
This holiday is supposed to be a fun filled day full of spooky and spunky costumes, but yet it is consumed with judgement on "who wore it best," or "wow girls need to be a lot more classier on Halloween."
Halloween is a day where you get to dress up and be someone or something else for a day. It gives you a free pass- it only comes once a year, and the fun of it is to see what other people come up with.
As a society, we have become so focused on how little girls are wearing, or the originality of each costume, and it takes away the excitement and fun of the holiday. If someone wants to wear a risque costume or no costume at all, LET THEM.
Stop focusing on what is wrong with peoples costumes, and have fun with it. You get this one day a year to have a blast- USE IT.
This halloween go get dressed up in the craziest costume you can imagine, and eat a least 15 Kit Kats- I promise you will have more fun than you could ever imagine.
