Action-Gettin' Costumes!

Every costume website has a “Top Ten” Most Popular/Most Requested/Most Flirtatious list. Heck, we are even guilty of it. People have a right to know! But let’s be honest, any half-wit could figure out that PIRATES are the costume of choice by college co-eds and short business men with a penchant for owning Porsches alike (“Size Issues” are remedied with a plethora of phallic sword accessories). What smart, fun, and cutting edge folks (like you) want to know is: What Costumes Are Going to Get You Some Action at the Club/Bar/Pub This Halloween?

300 - Spartan Deluxe Costume

Sure you have brains…but what women really want is: Brawn. This one is for you Mr.-Mis-Led-In-The-90’s-And-Made-To-Believe-That-Women-Look-For-Sensitive-Men-With-Thought-Provoking-Dialogue Man (Thanks sappy sitcoms). Truth be told, women are happiest staring at your dreamy physique. The upside for you: All your grunting and sweating at the gym will not be in vain. No, no, manly man of manly proportions! You are giving hope to an entire gender! Captivate her with your battle wounds. Send scintillating shivers down her spine with your alpha-male exterior. At the end of the night, she is going home with you. And do you know why? It’s because she won’t be able to take her eyes off your sword.

Fireman Costume

Firemen are the closest guys to a knight-in-shining-armor that the modern gal is going to encounter. It’s unfortunate that most of these prince charmings only appear when a room is completely engulfed in flames. Risking their lives and showing selfless determination in helping all of human kind…well, this is the very behavior that has perpetuated the creation of Firemen Calendars. We’re not saying that ladies can’t take care of themselves, but sometimes (just SOMETIMES) she’s looking to be rescued. Whether you are saving Ms. Ordinarily Independent from the doldrums of her corner-office existence or just the creepy dude at the end of the bar, one thing is for sure: NOTHING is as completely irresistible as a man in uniform. Nothing.

Snake Charmer Costume

I know what you are thinking: WHAT?!?! This is crazy. I am going to scare off every single chick in the joint! Let’s face it: Every woman thinks about it - well, maybe not every 6.8 seconds - but it’s on their minds. Think of this get-up as more of a “conversation starter” rather than a “chick magnet”. How many times has this happened to you: The bar is packed, and just when you want to bounce to that late night diner for a low-key recap of the evening’s events, the crowd parts. She meets your gaze and you are instantly reduced to a fraction of your usual intellectually-stimulating self. Panicked that she is going to leave OR that you will never think of something great to say, all at the same time, you make your grand attempt to woo her. Stealthy walk to exude confidence? Check! Great Pick-Up Line? NEGATIVE! After nervously tapping her on the shoulder, you awkwardly stammer, “Uh, do you, um, want to a-dance?” What is this, the *expletive* prom?!? You know what you need, right? A wing man (Too easy - we’ll let you come up with your own witty repartee here)! Bottom Line: Your little “friend” proves that you have a good sense of humor and a knack for obscure pop-culture references – keep the banter tame and you’ll unveil all the forbidden fruit you can handle.
