The Costumes Blog

Almost 20 years after the last Indiana Jones movie, he’s back! Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull will mark the return of Harrison Ford to the historian-archaeologist-adventurer role and of the fans using Indiana Jones costumes. I already bought my great Indiana Jones hat and whips, so I will not look like these guys:

Uhhhhhh, so scarry…

What do you do with a old pair of pants, a left-armed shirt and some bristle? A Indiana Jones costume, of course!

Is it Michael Jackson?

So go get your hat and whips and have a nice movie!

Yes, it’s hero’s time! After Indy and Hulk, the great Knight of the Darkness is coming in it’s newest movie (and the last one of… you know who) on July 18th.

So, like Joker says on the movie, “let’s put a smile in that face…” and remember the good-o’ batman costumes!

“Do you want more coffee, sir?”

Yes, time for another superhero movie! Or would he/it be an anti-hero? Nevermind.

The newest Incredible Hulk movie (by the way, how many Hulk movies has been done before?) has the “Fight Club crazy guy” Edward Norton as Hulk, using the hero-has-also-human-side storyline template from Spiderman movies.

How many of you are going to wear a Hulk costume this weekend? You would be very funny to watch the movie with some “Hulk cover” by your side… lol

So this weekend, save the movie makers… be green! lol

Still inspired by the lastest post (Top 5 sexiest halloween costumes on Flickr), I thought about telling you some tips about how to choose a good sexy costume (even for men, who can tell it later to some interesting girl… ;-)). Here’s the five basic tips:

Research about the party: First of all, consider looking at the invited list. No children? Great! Themed party? Even better!

To sexy or not to sexy?: After you have considered the party and its type, choose between going with your old fashioned costume or taking some hot ideas.

Brainstorm!: If you decide for the hot way, ask some close friends forideas or use Google to research for sexy Halloween costumes.

Decided? Time to buy!: With your prefered costume in mind, it’s time to choose tobuy it online (take a look at our article with 5 Reasons Why You Should Buy your Next Halloween Costume Online) or in a local store, or even rent it (or make it yourself). Buying online has the great advantage of variety and prices, normally cheaper than local stores.

Accessories and make-up: Time to complete your hot costume and stand out of the crowd. Use and abuse of it according to your costume.

See? Nice, easy and hot!

Time to write (?) about one of the best characteristics of Halloween and Costumes parties: sexy Halloween costumes! I bring you five of the most sexiest ones on Flickr.

And you? What are the sexiest Halloween costumes you have ever seen?

And yes, to be continued…

Hi there! How was your holiday? Great movies and popcorn times? I saw the latest Indiana Jones movie (remember my post about Indiana Jones costumes?) and thought about looking for some funny videos related to Indiana on Youtube. Problem is: there’s around 19.000 of them! So I picked up the best (and the worst) ones. Here’s my selection:

The Best

Lego Indiana Jones, a legend! - More than 2 million views!

Indiana Jones and the Song of Theme - A very funny parody of how the lyrics for the instrumental Indiana Jones song theme might be. A must see!

The giant Lego builder. With no happy ending… haha

Actually I had to edit the post after it was published just to include this awesome funny sketch! It’s a sound effect one from Whose Line. Four minutes laughing guaranteed!

The worst

Imagine some garage sci-fi effects, five bucks costumes and too much creativity. The result? The Turkish version of Star Wars! hahaha

See you tomorrow… If you survive to the movie above… lol

So are you already thinking about what costume you will on the next Halloween? No? I will tell you in one of the next posts why you should start thinking about it. But first, let’s give five unbeatable reasons why you should buy your next Halloween costume online:

1. Convenience

Have you ever walked by hundreds of different costumes stores to find your rock-the-party costume? What about visiting hundreds of stores in one or two hours without leaving your chair, compare their prices and choose the one that fits most on you, apart from time of the day (or year, since some local Halloween costumes stores just open up on September and October), traffic jams or screaming children? Yes, that’s what I’m talking about.

2. Variety

How many costumes does your preferred local Halloween costume store has? A thousand, maybe two? What about choosing among millions of costumes (Google?), with different sizes (so you don’t run out of your preferred one when you find it), accessories, prices and delivery conditions? Sometimes more is more.

3. Peace

If you have kids, you will realize what I’m talking about quickly. Instead of taking them to different local stores and spend a day (and some more dollars than you initially planned) to find their costumes, let them spend time on your favorite Halloween costumes website and choose the costume they want. Your time and the costumes local store costumers will thank you.

4. Price

Time is money, and the Internet is a good example. Now that you already saved some time, why not saving some money? Online costumes websites normally have better prices than local stores to attract more costumers, especially the ones not used to buy online (yes, there are thousands). And keep your eyes opened for middle-season discounts.

5. Social media

Use the social websites (Facebook and MySpace) to talk about your preferred online costumes stores, get costumes tips and find new parties to go! Here are some groups:

On Facebook

The Costumes Party

Halloween Costumes

Halloween!!

I love Halloween!!

Halloween Should Be a National Holiday

On MySpace

Halloween Town

So why do you think about buying Halloween costumes onlines? Have you? Have you not? Why?
