Halloween "Horror"

When did it become acceptable to dress like a poodle, by poodle I mean hooker, on Halloween? Actually, I take that back, why has it always been acceptable to dress like a poodle on Halloween??

Slutty kitten to sexy maid, it is really all the same; except that minor substitution of kitten ears for a duster or mouse ears to bunny tail... and what really gets me is that it is not even as if these costumes are flattering, to say the least. A combination of cheap polyester and pleather with a spritz of pointless accessories, it screams ridiculous-ness. As if life has become so mundane that society waits for the one night where boundaries disappear, dress codes- where less is more and as long as you can answer the question,
What are you? in 5 seconds or less the night is yours.

Halloween has somehow, somewhere lost meaning and is no longer about frightening frivilous fun; watching horror movies, haunted houses, carving pumpkins and getting spooked. Dressing up to look amazingly gruesome and mysterious. There are so many costumes that one could choose that doesn't start with hot or sexy. So before you throw on your black bootie shorts, spandex cami, cat ears and tail, take a moment and think about what Halloween really symbolizes... to you. Get inspired and substitute that classless, cheesy, poodle-esque outfit for something ravishly frightening, festive with a splash of class and charisma.

Get Inspired... Hot or Not??
