Looking for Wigs? We've got 'em!

2011-10-24T17:57:00.000-07:00

Here's the thing about a great Halloween costume. Sometimes, you just need the hair. Take, for instance, a Justin Bieber costume. Sure, you could throw on the purple skinny jeans, and the hoodie, and the sweet kicks, but without the hair, people will just think you're another kid in skinny jeans. Or, perhaps, take Marilyn Monroe. You can don the white dress, you can paint on the cat eyes, but without the signature blonde curls, you're just a pretty girl in a nice white dress. This is where wigs come in. They're here to elevate your costume to the next level - to ensure that everyone knows you are, no guessing games necessary!

Planning on going all crazy eighties this Halloween? Maybe you're emulating Blondie, or Tiffany. If so, you're going to want to snag our Eighties Glam Wig. It's the crazy, frizzed out hair you think of when you think 80s style - it's even got pink at the tips. Rock out, ladies! Want to snag all the ladies with your intelligence? You'll need a pair of glasses, and our amazing Einstein wig. White frizz is where it's at! Got a little girl who insists she won't wear a costume unless she can be Ariel? We've got the perfect long red Ariel wig for her (save the hair dye for when she's older, trust us). Go all out Geisha with our realistic looking Geisha wig (and grab some white face paint while you're at it). Need more wig ideas? Shop our online store here. Don't forget to grab a wig cap to keep your hair in place!

How to find the best costumes for your pet

2011-10-24T17:47:00.000-07:00

Halloween is lots of fun for friends and family, and there's always lots of fun to be had in choosing your own costume - but you know what's also lots of fun? Dressing up your pets! Our four-footed friends come with us everyone. We take them on trips, we bring them along with us to work and to the store, so why not take them along with us on Halloween night? Below, check out some of our favorite pet costumes.

Call us crazy, but sometimes, we just want to turn our pooch into a taco. What's that you say? You like dogs in taco costumes too? Come on, there's really no way to deny that this costume is super cute. If you want all the other dogs to look your pooch's way in jealously, this is the costume to snag. Of course, you could also always go for the Wonder Woman costume. This one is great for small female dogs, like maltese and cockapoo puppies. With a tiny cape and matching red and blue outfit, this costume is simply too cute! If your dog won't wear much, consider the Blooming Snout costume, which turns even the crankiest of puppies into cute, adorable flowers. With pink petals and a green stem, this is a costume you'll love for years to come. Got a hot dog? You'll want a Hot Dog (costume, that is). Adorable, isn't it? Just make sure no one mistakes him for the real thing!

Don't love any of the options above? There are lots more to choose from. Shop our online store today!

Throw the best Halloween party around!

2011-09-20T11:07:00.000-07:00

Ready to throw the Halloween party of the century? Well, you're going to need some great party supplies. That includes plates, cups, napkins, even decorations. And of course, you don't want to forget some seriously spooky props. We're big fans of the Ghostly Group Lawn Set. When we plan our yearly Halloween party, we always turn to the queen of entertaining: Martha Stewart. Martha's Halloween Central feature on her website has proved to be a treasure trove of inspiration and ideas, year after year. We're particularly fond of her pumpkin stencils, and her drink labels. You'll also find some great Halloween recipes.

So, time to write up your shopping list. Pick a date, send out some awesome invitations, and let's get this party started! Remember, Halloween is a busy season and many neighborhoods have trick or treating on Halloween night. When selecting a date for your party, try to choose a date that won't interfere with your guest's other Halloween plans. The weekend before Halloween can be a great date for a Halloween party, as people are often less busy the weekend prior to the holiday itself.

Looking for some Hippie costumes?

2011-08-06T13:34:00.000-07:00

Sometimes, when life gets tough, we wish we were back in the sixties and the seventies - the hippie heyday, when things were no easier, but attitudes were much more lax. The time period might have been full of unrest and political issues, but the people were all about love, color, and freedom. That led to some seriously crazy sartorial choices - all of which we know idolize today in costume. Below, check out some of our favorite hippie costumes. Couples will love our Sonny and Cher costume - complete with paisley, florals and big bell bottoms, as it should be. Practice your "I've got you babe" routine, and you're good to go!

No worries - our Hippie Wig will give you longer than long blonde tresses, complete with mini braids for effect. Want more hippie costumes? Click here.

Are you ready to go blue? Smurf Costumes are here!

2011-08-06T11:54:00.000-07:00

Summer's always the best time for movies, and it seems this summer is no different. A few weeks back, we were stunned by the final film from the Harry Potter saga, and now we're gearing up to check out The Smurfs movie. As the story goes, the evil Gargamel chases the smurfs out of their village, and they, naturally, come tumbling into our world. Specifically, into a New York City apartment owned by Neil Patrick Harris and Jayma Hays. The film features a bevy of Hollywood's brightest, including the wonderful Hank Azaria as Gargamel, and Katy Perry as a spunky female smurf. Want to deck yourself out in Smurfdom when you head to the theater? We've got you covered, with Smurf Mittens and Smurf Hats. Come Halloween, it'll be time for full out costumes. Don't worry, we've got Smurf Costumes for kids and adults alike. Girls will adore our Smurfette costumes, which are perfect for your little princess.

What did you wear for 4th of July?

2011-07-05T13:59:00.000-07:00

Fourth of July has come and gone, and we want to see your best costumes! Independence Day is up there on the list of our favorite holidays (Halloween is number one, of course), so we're always in the mood to get red, white and blue. Want to know what we were wearing to celebrate our independence? Here are some of our favorite 4th of July costumes, props and accessories. For those who aren't afraid to go all out, we love a full-on costume - our Firecracker costume is short, sassy, sexy and patriotic. In other words, it definitely fits the bill. We know that some people don't like to be the center of attention, however, and for those folks, we recommend our red white and blue Fourth of July beaded necklaces. Young ones will love our patriotic Betsy Ross costume. Betsy Ross, for those not in the know, is the woman responsible for creating the American flag we all know and love. When it comes to decorations, it's all about our Patriotic Stars confetti and our even cooler Patriotic Stars foil centerpiece. Talk about stealing the spotlight - these make for the perfect picnic table on Independence Day! Looking for a costume that's a bit out of the box? Consider our adult Lady Liberty costume - we love this one because it doesn't just work for July 4th but for Halloween as well! A cute, sassy look that's sure to attract some attention, this costume is one of our all time favorites.

So, folks - show us your costumes! Tell us what you wore!

Princess Costumes inspired by Selena Gomez in Monte Carlo

2011-07-05T12:52:00.000-07:00

We know most of you spent this past weekend celebrating Independence Day in your red, white and blue finest, but we spent ours at the movie theater, taking in teen star Selena Gomez's new flick, Monte Carlo. Gomez, who is a former Disney star (she spent four years on the channel's family sitcom, Wizards of Waverly Place), has recently begun to take on more "adult" roles, the first of which is the family-friendly but non-Disney related film, Monte Carlo. The story of three high school graduates who travel to Paris and end up in a hilarious switcharoo, Selena Gomez takes the lead in the film as a girl who is mistaken for an heiress. Accordingly, the teen star wears plenty of pretty dresses in the film, which got us thinking about princess dresses and princess costumes. We don't know about you, but we were seriously coveting Selena Gomez's tiara throughout the dazzling scenes of the film. Love the look but can't afford the real thing? We've got the perfect tiara for your next princess costume. Lucky for us, princess costumes aren't just for kids! We carry a great deal of gorgeous princess costumes for adults as well - this pink one is our absolute favorite. It reminds us of the dress that Glinda the Good Witch wears in The Wizard of Oz. Caught the princess bug yet? Click here for a wealth of amazing costumes.

Have you seen Super 8 yet?

2011-06-15T08:32:00.000-07:00

This weekend, we took in JJ Abrams newest film, Super 8. Part Goonies, part Aliens, and all parts awesome, Super 8 got us thinking - it's been a while since we've talked about alien costumes. We've got a whole lot of costumes from Monsters vs. Aliens, but our favorite alien costume piece has to be our Alien vs. Predators gloves. These lifelike gloves look as though they've been dropped down from a spaceship, and transform the average hands into creepy, spooky, alien hands. If you're looking for traditional alien costumes, our Evil Alien Child costume is the perfect one. A green mask, hooded cape and oversized collar make for a seriously great costume. For toddlers and tots, consider our Toy Story Alien costume, which, while not scary, is perfectly appropriate and adorable for little ones.

Want more aliens? Click here! Now tell us, have you seen Super 8? What did you think? Leave us your thoughts in the comments!

Have you seen THOR yet?

2011-06-07T11:49:00.000-07:00

We'll admit it - we haven't seen Thor. Something Natalie Portman in a comic book movie just doesn't sit well with us, especially following her Oscar-winning turn in Black Swan. We don't know much about Chris Hemsworth, except that he's the older brother of Liam Hemsworth, who dated Miley Cyrus for a while (which is how he ended up on our radar). We've heard Thor is the god of thunder, which makes us think that perhaps his tale dates back to the ancient Greeks? Can anyone help us out here?

That being said, this doesn't mean we're totally out of the loop - we know how much kids are loving it, and we've packed our stores with Thor-tastic gear. We've got Thor's mighty hammer, as well as children's Thor costumes and adult Thor costumes. If you're looking to throw a Thor themed party, we've got napkins, plates, cups and more.

Tell us, have YOU seen Thor? What did you think of it? Will you be donning a Thor costume this Halloween?

Dress like Modern Day Royalty

2011-06-07T11:41:00.000-07:00

Lately, everyone's been all about the Royal Family. Following William and Kate's star-studded wedding on April 26th, Kate and her sister Pippa exploded onto the scene. They've covered People magazine, they've been spotted on the style blogs, and dresses they wear sell out in mere minutes. MINUTES, people! These girls clearly have some power - but they're not the only royals out there. William and Kate might be the most famous royal couple since Charles and Diana, but there are plenty more royals out there. There's also Princess Beatrice, daughter of Duchess Sarah Ferguson, who's been spotted out and about with her boyfriend, Dave Clark, quite a bit since the Royal Wedding took place. Pippa Middleton, however, has probably enjoyed the most fame following the big day - there are entire blogs dedicated to Pippa's carefree high-street style - as well as articles dedicated to her assets and tan legs. Ridiculous? Perhaps - but it's clear the public is infatuated with the modern day fairy tale that is the life of a royal.

Which brings us to our own fantasy, which is, not surprisingly, to live in our very own fairy tale. We'd like nothing more than to lounge around in a Cinderella costume all day long. Of course, it would be best if it wasn't a costume, but just our everyday wear. We'd also be totally fine spending our days in a Beauty and the Beast Belle costume. However, we'll settle for an Elizabethean Queen costume - talk about a trip back in time! Gents, we'll recommend you get your fix with a crown fit for a king.

Where to Buy Alice in Wonderland Costumes

2011-05-13T11:45:00.000-07:00

The popular tale of the girl who fell down the rabbit hole has been told over and over - first by author Lewis Carroll, who brought our beloved Alice to life, then by Disney, who illustrated Alice and put her on the big screen, and then most recently, Tim Burton, who took his love of all things magical and fantastical and applied to Alice and her cohorts. If you're looking for an intricate, realistic and detailed costume, look no further than a great Alice in Wonderland costume from Halloween Adventure.

Mimic actress Mia Wasikowska in Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland with this fantastic blue Alice costume.

Don't waste your money on building your costume from scratch when you can get something beautiful and realistic from Halloween Adventure.

Not a natural blonde? We've got you covered on the wig front. Alice is known for her long blonde hair, which she wears tied up in a black ribbon headband. Get the look with our Alice in Wonderland movie wig, which features long blonde curls and Alice's signature black ribbon. Don't tress out - just get this wig and your Alice in Wonderland costume will be complete.

If you're looking for something that's a bit sexier than the average Alice costume, you'll love our Wonderland's De-Light light up Alice in Wonderland costume. Not for the faint of heart, this short-skirted costume is all the rage when it comes to sexy Halloween costumes, featuring a tiny blue dress and white apron. It's Alice, all grown up. Even better, the skirt lights up, so you're sure to catch the attention of adoring gentlemen wherever you go. This costume also comes in teen sizes.

Top Five Alice in Wonderland Costumes!

2010-08-24T12:06:00.001-07:00

ALICE IN WONDERLAND COSTUMES

This Halloween, go down the rabbit hole and follow Alice around Wonderland. This famous trippy tale is the perfect story to model your Halloween costumes around, as there are millions of characters to mimic. Just be careful you don’t try anything labeled “eat me.” As Alice has taught us, those little mushrooms can be bad news!

Ladies can start with our Alice Adult Fairytale Classics Costume. Includes a blue satin dress with attached apron, and a black headband. You may want to practice a perfect British accent with a hint of ditz, as we’re aware Alice wasn’t the brightest crayon in the box. We recommend carrying around a tea cup, or at least some of those valentines hearts as props.

Go the opposite route with our Alice in Gothland costume. A riff off the Alice tale, this costume is sexy, spicy, and any other word you’d never associate with the original Alice. The costume includes dress with attached petticoat, apron, choker, headband, and gloves. It may not be typical, but it’s definitely a welcome change!

Oh! It’s the white rabbit! He’s late, he’s late, for a very important date! Channel the white furry friend in this fabulous tale with our Alice in Wonderland Classic White Rabbit Hat. Make sure you can find the Mad Hatter, because you know there’s a tea party to attend! Make this costume even better by adding a long pocket watch.

Go all out rabbit in our Deluxe White Rabbit Adult Costume. It includes rabbit body, feet, mitts, vest, jacket, watch and hat. This one’s sure to have you right on the money, as it’s as perfect of an imitation as a human could get! Whiskers aren’t included, but we’d recommend drawing them on and adding a pink nose!

Who could forget the deliriously ridiculous Mad Hatter? Replicate the ridiculous in our Mad Hatter Adult Fairytale Classics Costume. Would you like some more tea, my dear? Oh, never mind that you haven’t had a first cup! Includes Multi-color hat, Orange jacket, Light Green pants, and vest with tie.

Mimic the dumbest twins ever (or perhaps, just the most devious!) in ourTweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum costume. Costume includes a one piece jumpsuit with attached suspenders, bowtie, and propeller hat. For a look that’s nearly identical to the one in the famous Disney film, try this one.

Where to find five Little Mermaid Costumes

2010-08-24T12:01:00.001-07:00

One of the most beloved Disney princesses in the world, Ariel’s sweet voice and adorable demeanor won the hearts of merpeople and mortals alike. Now there are various sequels and prequels to the Disney film, and there’s even a show on Broadway! What better time than this Halloween to dress up like your favorite underwater characters?

Start with the girl everyone loves with our Ariel Deluxe Adult Costume. Costume comes with a bodice, skirt/fin and attached cameo. Try a mother and daughter duo costume with our Ariel Deluxe Child Costume. Kid’s costume is a top quality ensemble that includes a full-length Green velvet dress with iridescent detail. Mimic Ariel’s long red hair with our Silver Screen Sensation Wig or our Sultry Deluxe Wig in Natural Red. Girls can try our Ariel Wig, which features bright red hair that matches Disney Ariel’s perfectly!

Top Five Scariest Costumes for Girls

TOP FIVE SCARIEST CHILDREN’S COSTUMES FOR GIRLS

We know most girls prefer to be pretty princesses on Halloween, but we also know there are some girls who are just born to be bad and want to rock it scary-style while they Trick or Treat. So, we’ve created a list just for those girls, a list of costumes so scary you might swear you accidentally switched your child with someone’s zombie.

For those who want one foot in the water and one foot out, try ourDazzling Devil Children’s Costume. This Dazzling Devil is adorable in red and black. Dress has black trim hem and criss-cross front panel, and sheer red flowing sleeves. Also included are red headband horns and of course a pointed red tail. Perfect for those who want a little bit of scare and a little bit of pretty!

Feeling bad? Try our Snow White Evil Queen Teen Costume. This officially licensed Disney costume is a perfect way to illustrate that you’re smart, evil and you mean business! It features a great bluish purple silk dress with batwing sheer sleeves with gold detailing, as well as a fabulous foam collar, emblem, hood and of course, a crown! If Snow White’s lessons are any indication, a girl in this costume is not to be messed with.

Scary Harry Potter fans will fawn over our Death Eater Bellatrix Children’sCostume. Our Female Death Eater Bellatrix costume comes complete with dress with cummerbund and attached hood, and mask. This costume is perhaps the scariest female costume we’ve got! Just picture Bellatrix broadcast widescreen in the movies with that terribly maniacal laugh. Channel her evil and go to town!

5 Great Historical Costumes

2010-07-26T16:41:00.001-07:00

Everyone knows that Halloween is generally a time for men to dress scary and women to dress sexy, but maybe it’s time for a departure from this method. Want to go the opposite route? Well, how about going historical! No, we don’t mean sexy hippie, we mean the Washingtons, George and Martha (among others, of course).

Our George Washington Adult Historical Costume is the perfect way to pay your respects to our first leader even if it’s not the 4^th of July! It includes a historically accurate blue jacket with gold trim, a grey vest and grey pants. If you’re going to dress like Georgie, you might as well go all the way. Top it off with our George Washington Colonial Wig, a smooth and distinguished (and very tall!) hairpiece that exudes a highly presidential air.

If you’re looking to replicate the hairstyle of Miss Martha herself, we recommend our Madame De Pompadour Wig, a hairpiece that subtly compliments George Washington’s, so that husband and wife can look powerful and polished together.

If it’s another president’s look you desire, try our Abraham Lincoln Adult Historic Costume. This deluxe getup includes a long black coat (Abe’s signature), as well as pants, vest, stovepipe hat and requisite beard. Don’t be surprised if the neighbors start asking you for advice regarding the upcoming election!

If you’re not looking for the whole shebang, check out our Abraham Lincoln Heroes in History Kit. This kit includes a beard and a stovepipe hat, but you’ll have to practice Abe’s speeches on your own time.

Another idea is to try out our Ben Franklin Historical Costume, a look so close to Ben’s that you might swear you’ve transcended the limits of time! The costume includes a jacket with attached vest and white cuffs, matching knickers and white socks, shoe covers and a white jabot. Top it off with our Ben Franklin Heroes in History Kit, which includes the headpieces and eyeglasses needed to transform you from ordinary Joe into historical hero.

No matter which famous historical hero you choose, make sure to educate yourself on the politics that go with them! While you’re at it, educate yourself on the politics of today as well. With one of the most important elections in recent history coming up, make like a historical hero and know your stuff.
