"Clothes make a statement. Costumes tell a story."
-- Mason Coole
As the ghouls creep out of the shadows and the witches fly past the golden autumn moon, single men and women of all ages come out to mingle in disguise. It's a great chance to be somebody else for the night. For the ladies, it's the perfect chance to show off your naughty side. Go to any Halloween party, and you will see scantily clad fairies, bunnies, vampires, Greek goddesses, cops, and even your beloved fairy tale characters from childhood. Halloween is about having fun, meeting new people, and being somebody else for the night. It's an entire evening of being with your friends and role-playing while you flirt with men.
The key to having a great Halloween as a single girl is to choose your costume and party carefully. Give yourself at least a month to search out the perfect costume. Before you purchase it, show it to one of your girlfriends. She will tell you if it's the one for you or not. There's nothing worse than seeing a girl pouring out of her costume in all the wrong places. Most costumes run small, so if you can't try it on because you are buying it online, then make sure you give yourself plenty of time to return it, or you buy 2 costumes just in case one doesn't fit. However, if you're a size 6, disregard what I just said...you lucky bitch. I am, like most of the women out there, not a size 6, so I've had problems with fitting into costumes. I tried on one vacuum sealed, sexy FBI agent costume, and I couldn't even get the crotch to snap! I had to buy a pair of black latex hot pants to put over it. A few years ago, I came across these god forsaken hot pants, and I actually hesitated throwing them out. Where the hell did I think I was going to wear these again??!! Unless I was going to start frequenting underground goth clubs, my latex hot pants were not going to get much use.
Now that you have the perfect costume, your next big decision is crucial: Which parties will you be attending and how many? This choice can make or break your Halloween and your chance of getting the phone number of some hot stud in a Dracula cape. Talk to your girlfriends about all your options. If there's a party that one of them really wants to attend, then compromise. Tell her you will go to her party if she goes to your chosen party. Find out the locations of all the parties you want to go will be and how late they will be going on. Say you decide on 3 parties, check out the one you think will be the lamest first. Show up, have a few drinks, and if it doesn't get any better in an hour, 1/2 hour if you really hate it, then leave and go to your next party. If your choice Halloween party is at a club, then be prepared to spend most of the night there. Otherwise, you're blowing a lot of money on Halloween tickets and not taking full advantage. If you know of a great party, and you know it will be going on late, then go to that one after the club. However, the later a party goes, the sloppier the guys will be, so be prepared to be unimpressed with the talent there. Batman may have been looking pretty good at 11 PM, but it's 2:00, and he's slurring his words and his breath reeks of cheap shots of tequila and Natty Light; he's not so hot now.
Okay, so now you have the costume and the parties all worked out, so what else is there? Be a lady and don't drink so much that you are a "hallowed", albeit a hot, mess. Nobody wants to see a sexy Alice in Wonderland falling into a "rabbit hole" or a naughty Snow White who's had too much of the "poison apple". Have a few drinks, but pace yourself. If you want to party hop, then you will need all the endurance you can get. In between drinks, have a Red Bull or a glass of water. This will keep up your energy. The guys you want to attract are not into drunken disasters. You will have more fun if you are not completely obliterated. Not to mention, you'll give off a better first impression when talking to a cute guy.
Ladies, have a fabulous Halloween and be as wicked and naughty as you want to be. It's your night for the sexy girl to come out and play. She only comes out once a year, so have fun and meet lots of guys, even if they are in unfortunately misguided costumes. Remember, be on your toes or your platform heels,you never know when you'll meet your Prince Charming...or at the very least some hot guy dressed as Prince Charming who wants your number ;-)
