Ten Commandments of Costumes

February 9th, 2010

What if Moses had come down from the mountain wearing a feather boa?  Maybe he was headed to a costume party, ready to deliver the ten commandments of costumes to all party goers.  They could be a little something like this –

French Maid Costumes

  1. Thou shalt never think that costumes only come out at Halloween.  Live it up and wear one whenever the mood strikes.
  2. Thou shalt always use a mirror when applying make up – unless thou is dressed as an old woman.  Then lipstick in odd places and sloppy eye makeup is entirely appropriate.
  3. Thou shalt wear undergarments at all times under a toga costume.  The same law does not apply to men when wearing a kilt – always go authentically Scottish.

Top 10 Things You Should NOT Be Caught Doing in Costume

February 4th, 2010

There are certain situations that are destined to cause even the toughest person regret.  Stripping in front of your grandmother, for instance.  When you throw a costume in the mix, there are many other potentially embarrassing conundrums to stay out of.  Here’s the top ten.

  1. Don’t get caught by your pastor wearing a not-so-modest nun or clergy costume.  Not only will the priest be embarrassed by your fall from grace, but you may be fueling temptation.
  2. Ditto for any conservative, elderly relatives or clergy of any sort.  Sister Sarah or Auntie Fanny will likely never forgive you.

Understated, But Still Sexy Costumes for the Recently Divorced

January 22nd, 2010

If you are newly single or Single-Again, take advantage of the fun (and mystery) at a costume party to explore and flaunt the new you.

The first thing to remember is not to go overboard.  Dressing in a barely-there costume will certainly attract attention, but shows little thought to going beyond that.  You are in control of your life and that needs to show.  Don’t be a push over.  And don’t advertise all of your inventory.

That being said, you are sexy!  And wouldn’t you like someone to notice that?

Spiderman Arrested

November 13th, 2009

I am the first to admit that things can get hairy out there on the streets for Superheroes. (I know, I live it all the time because I’m a real superhero, but don’t tell anyone). There’s crime to fight, evil plans for world domination to thwart, civilians to rescue, lives to save. Someone should remind Spiderman of that.
