Q&A for How to Choose a Halloween Costume

They are both good ideas. Alice seems less common, but you should choose your favorite. You could also go by hair color so you don't have to wear a wig - be Alice if you're blond, be Dorothy if you have dark hair.

Of course! You can be the same character as many times as you'd like. You'll even save money on costumes.

If you're elegant, fancy, feminine, or sneaky, choose the fox. They are graceful and tricky. If you're rugged, boyish, thievish, or messy, choose the raccoon. They are rough and tough with a risky lifestyle. If you don't fit into either of the categories, follow your animal instincts!

You can be whichever you prefer. You can even try combining the two costumes.

Sure, if you have some new ideas, give it a try. It's totally fine to do a variation on a costume you've already worn before.

You can be a vintage party-goer! Get a tuxedo suit or fluffy gown with matching colors, and maybe get cool shutter shades. Party!

Well, by the time Halloween comes around, if you do not have the materials or the actual costume to join your friends then go with your original idea.

A dark spirit (robe, dark makeup, etc); it's a good balance of scary and pretty, as you get to show off makeup skills.

The wolf is a good choice because it is fairly easy, as you could just do ears and a tail, and it can be sexy or not, depending on your age/preference.

Okay, if you describe yourself as a calm, outdoorsy person, choose deer. If you are into action and crime investigation, choose cop. If you are a sports person, choose boxer, and if you want something that's more like a traditional Halloween costume, go with the scarecrow. They're all great ideas!

If you are sneaky and stealthy, choose the ninja. If you like black and punk, choose goth. And if you are going for a more traditional costume, choose the vampire.

It's up to you. Those are both great costumes. Try asking friends and family for help, or mix them up. A witch-vampire could be cool.

A tail, cat ears, gloves with paw prints if you want, and a cute pair of shoes.

You can try mixing and matching up brown, orange, grey, or yellow tops and pants. You can also try a onesie or whole suit that covers your entire body. Don't forget to add a tail and ears. Makeup or props are optional. Soft and furry fabrics on your costume are recommended.

If you are girly/sporty, then I would choose cheerleader. If you are kinda dark, or you just want a more traditional costume, choose vampire.

Try decorating your hat, coat, and scarf to make it blend into your costume.

Use a color suitable for your costume (e.g if you go as a goth, do dark purple/blue). Whatever works for your costume is fine.

It depends on how much walking you do. If there's a lot of distance between classes, your feet will probably be quite sore by the end of the day.

Yes, dressing as an OC is fine, as long as you don't mind explaining it to people.

Yes, you could. Nobody will be mad if you are the same thing two times in a row.

You could always wear tights or dark pants underneath your dress, or have a dark/lacy pullover. You could also go as a more "modern" style witch and wear something a little more like your regular (warm) clothes.

If you think that is what you want to be and it is available, then you can for sure be Green Lantern.

Any of these are great ideas! Ask your friends and family for advice for you specifically though. Glinda would probably be the best choice, since she is majestic and you would stand out, but Dorothy and a cupcake fairy princess are also good choices.

You could be a fox! Whether it's a red fox, arctic fox, or a cute little Fennec fox, they are all feminine-looking. What's more, they are an animal. If you don't like the idea, try searching for feminine-looking animals.

You don't have to if you don't want to. It's not like a law, and it's just for fun. You can sit back and watch everyone trick or treat if you would like to.

Dress as Hannah if you are energetic, cheerful, and into pop/country music. If you are tough and menacing, into gangsters, and not so cheerful or girly, dress as Tony.

Some Disney princess costume ideas are: Mulan (if you have dark or black hair); Rapunzel (if you have long blonde hair); Sleeping Beauty (if you have short blonde hair); Elsa (white or light blonde hair); Anna (ginger, dark brown or light brown hair).

The best option would be to dress as Ariel because she's both a mermaid and a princess.

If you would like to look graceful and soft, go for the pigeon/dove. But if you would like to appear strong, outspoken, and brave, go for the eagle instead. Or decide by colors: if you prefer grey/white/purple, choose the pigeon, and if you prefer shades of brown, choose the eagle.

If you would like to look majestic, heroic and strong, choose the eagle. If you want to appear quiet, smart, and as if you have more brains than brawn, then choose the owl.
