Muahaha, Spooky greetings OneRioters! Here we are on the cusp of yet another Haunted All Hallow’s Eve ready to gorge ourselves on Candy corns (yechh!) and Fun-sized Nestle Crunch (yum!). Are you with us? Well, before you secure enough sweets to last you the next financial quarter, you’re going to have to stop stomping around the neighborhood in your everyday gear, because no one wants to give M&Ms to a banker or a dad casually dressed in Eddie Bauer gear, unless you can convince them that your costume is “1995 Man.” So if you’ve waited til the last minute and have yet to secure a quality costume for Saturday’s big costume party or trick or treat trek, we here at OneRiot have a few suggestions to help you stand out amongst a sea of balloon boys and Jon and Kate Plus Eight impersonators. So without further ado, the OneRiot last minute Halloween costume guide for those who have yet to decide:
Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger- Dust off that old sport coat and procure a pair of pilot wings, a nifty hat and a sweet white stache. Carry with you a tupperware labeled “Hudson River” filled with water and a mini toy plane. Throughout the party keep landing your toy plane safely in the tupperware. Everyone at the party will consider you a hero. If you don’t want to carry around the tupperware you can just keep dropping your plane in other people’s drinks…but we suspect that could be annoying.
- Halloween 2008 - Last year Sarah Palin costumes were all the rage. You probably even dressed as the former Alaska governor. You’re so creative. So why not pull that power suit out with the American flag lapel pin out of the closet, make your hair look all sexy librarian-ish and slap on that pair of New Year’s 2008 glasses you’ve held onto hoping to somehow get another use out of. For good measure grab yourself a piggy bank and slap some lipstick on that thing and maybe glue some old candy wrappers to your person. Voila! (more…)
