Filed under: Celebrities with Style, Celebrity Fashion Mistakes

Heidi Klum

Each year we wait with bated breath to see what Heidi Klum will don to her Halloween shindig and this year she certainly did not disappoint! We are pretty sure her freaky deaky outfit is of Hindu God Vishnu and that hubby Seal was, in fact, a Hawaiian pirate of some sort. But all good things have to come to an end, including fabulous Halloween costumes and, man, we just can't wait 'til next year!

Check out Heidi's harrowing costume and what some of her other whacky guests wore in our gallery.

Bandana + fangs = Fangdana - Last minute Halloween ideas

Filed under: Holiday Style

Let's face it, if you don't have this year's Halloween costume picked out already, you've procrastinated to the very last possible moment to throw something together -- and that usually doesn't work out too well. What you need is something simple, something quick, something ... fangy. There's nothing like the convenience having your Halloween costume hidden away in your back pocket -- that's why we really love the Fangdana.

Skanky Halloween costumes for teens - Yea or Nay?

Filed under: Holiday Style, Style in the News, Kids and Babies

When you take your daughter to the costume shop, you might find yourself asking: why does it look like pedophiles designed all of this fairy and princess outfits? Sure, it's a long-standing tradition for college-age women to use Halloween -- or Slutoween, as some are calling it -- as an excuse to channel their inner skankiness. Apparently, the trend "sex sells" mentality has filtered down to the younger age groups and some parents aren't too cool with it.

American Apparel offers up some ideas for DIY costumes - A very Charney Halloween

Filed under: Holiday Style

With their quasi-perverted finger on the pulse of the nation's hipster demographic, Dov Charney and his cohorts at American Apparel had the not-so-brilliant idea to come up with some DIY costume ideas for notoriously indecisive twenty-somethings. The minds at American Apparel actually came up with quite a few ideas, but some work much better than others. The unifying theme, as always, is AA's trademark ability to insert soft-core porn into every situation. After all, aren't slutty costumes what Halloween's really all about?

Happy Howl-o-ween - Costumes for your canine companion

Filed under: Holiday Style, Must Haves

There are people out there who might think dressing your pet in a costume is sick and twisted. Those people probably also think it's ridiculous to wear a crazy wig to dinner with your friends, or include a feather boa for a night out. And you know what those people are? Boring. We like to dress up, and so do our dogs.

The options for dressing your fashionable and furry friend are nearly endless, but we've got a few favorites. Some are classic, some are a little more current, but they're all grrr-eat in our book. And yes, we might have gotten into some of the candy for the trick-or-treaters and we're on a goofy sugar high. What of it?

Couples costumes - Have fun, get festive

Filed under: Holiday Style, Clothing


Seeing as how we write about fashion all day long, it should come as no surprise to you that we totally dig Halloween. We get to dress up in crazy clothes and wear four times as much makeup as we normally would, and nobody looks twice. Unless we do it right, in which case, we have heads turning all night.

If you're hitting the town with your sweetie on Halloween, maybe you want to find complementary costumes. Of course, this can end up being terribly cheesy, but we also think it can be an awful lot of fun. Check out our gallery for a few suggestions, and leave your suggestions in the comments!
