Sexy Costumes From the Past!

BuyCostumes has some great new costumes for the upcoming season and it's never too early to start planning out your ensemble. I browsed though many of our new costumes and realized that a lot of them come straight out of the past. We have a lot of new costumes that represent different times in history and pop culture. We especially have a lot of great new, SEXY, costumes that could make a great group costumes. Or, put a whole bunch of different time periods together for a "decades" themes group idea.

• Prehistoric: Cave Beauty She makes prehistoric times look like something from the High Fashion Runway!
• Early America: Pocahottie This is definitely a twist on your typical Native American costume. Pocahottie is sassy with fringe and feathers! You'll be sure to casue some tribal trouble in this dress.
• 1920's: Gatsby Girl Celebrate the Roarin 20's with this ROARIN costume. She's a 1920's flapper and has TONS of glitter. I like this one again, becasue its pretty simple but with some great personalization no one will have a costume as great as this! Pair it with these Cute Heels!
• 1940's: Ahoy There Hottie A sailor never looked so good. Go back to the time when the "good old boys" were at war and women had to step up. This dress is patriotic red, white, and blue and has classic details like an anchor and gold buttons.
• 1950's: Mini Poodle Skirt This not your mom's costume! HOP into the 50's with this super cute poodle skirt. It comes in pink or red so get a couple of the girls together and no one will ever have looked so good in a "vintage" skirt.
• 1960's: Hippie Chick A grovvy costume for a groovy girl. It's really colorful and easy to dance in! You will get everyone's attention when you walk into the room. Make love, not war!
• 1970's: 70's Disco Queen I'm loving the metallic look of this dress. The neckline cut is right from the disco floor, and heck, you'll be a portable Disco ball. Listen to some ABBA and don't forget the 70's wig. Got some Saturday Night Fever? Would be great for a couple's costume by pairing with this guy!
• 1980's: 80's Rock Star Anything from the 80's is a great idea for a costume. Anyone is bound to have something fro the 80's lying around her house and 80's costumes=80's Music! This costume is really cute and simple, but pair with some colorful accesories and you will stand out among the rest.
• 1990's... errr 1960's?: British Flag Dress You could represent the Smashing 60's or one of the spiciest girls from the 90's! Another great idea: do an "Around the World" theme and use this dress to show off your UK Pride!
• 2000: Go Green Girl The latest trend right now, ORGANIC! Wear this costume and let everyone know how environmentally conscious you are.

Club IT UP! –Out and About at the Clubs

What’s hot on the club scene this Halloween? Basically anything goes, and club goers go to BuyCostumes.com for their gear! From super-sexy to silly to freakishly absurd, there isn’t much that you can’t get away with, and the more imaginative, the better! It’s a lot fun to be something totally different than what you are in real life. Want to be a good girl gone bad? Maybe the Malice In Wonderland costume would be a good option for you! And if you’re dating a tough guy, then it would be only natural for him to go as the White Rabbit! You’re sure to get a good laugh from your friends when you sport the unexpected. If you want to be fashionably scary and sexy, then witches and vampires are always great options. For the ladies, I recommend the Burlesque Victorian Vampiress Costume. This is seriously sexy vampiress gear that is definitely risqué with its ultra-mini skirt, but the crimson velvet and black lace give it the dash of drama and sophistication that make it vampire-worthy! And fortunately, there is a Victorian Vampire costume to match for your gentleman; complete with a black and silver Victorian printed vest, and a black cravat. To put it simply, you will make a very striking pair.

Fairy costumes such as Midnight Fairy, Graveyard Fairy, and the Sequined Sprite are hot items, and dressing as these mystical and magical creatures can be even more fun when you add lights and color to the mix! This can be easily done with sparkly, colorful and creative makeup (Shimmer and Shine), and Glowbys for your hair or iGlow Hair Gel (very cool stuff!). And speaking of glow-in-the-dark stuff, BuyCostumes.com also has really cool glow in the dark wigs, such as the Glow Fro or the Glovacious; (kind of a Debbie Harry/Cleopatra style), which are smash hits all by themselves, so just imagine what happens when you put them on!

For a group of seven grrrls (—ahem—young women), BuyCostumes.com has the perfect group costume, “The Seven Deadly Sinners!” All dressed up and raring to go, you and your gal pals can take your favorite place over when you walk in, because as Gluttony, Lust, Greed, Sloth, Jealousy, Pride, and Rage, the crowd will be at your mercy! But what if it’s just two of you? Well, there are also the Starburst Girl and the Emerald Girl who make a dynamite duo as they club cruise together!

Feeling spacey? Get ready to make the jump to hyper-space! BuyCostumes.com has a galaxy of options. Starting with The Jetsons, we offer you Judy, George, Jane and Astro (though he would not be allowed at the club!), non-stop Star Wars, Buzz Lightyear and many more (psst! Ladies, check out the silver boots—wow!)! You say you’re actually feeling “cavey,” eh? Uggh. I know just what you mean! Then you will enjoy dressing up as The Clubbin’ Cave Girl, and if your dude wants to tag along, make him go as the The King of Caves.

Other super popular choices are, of course, superhero costumes like Wonder Woman, Catwoman, Superman, Spider-Man, Batman, and Captain America. Lots of people like to put fresh spins on supergear to make a splash, and this can be done with shoes, makeup and accessories. Add Monster Boots, funky sunglasses, and again, sparkling makeup to your look for a dazzling, super effect!

So when you go out, go all out! And most importantly, have a fun and safe Halloween!

Sexy Costumes for 08: Less is More!

There are two ways you can look at this—and they both work! 1) When it comes to sexy costumes, some say that the less you wear, and the more you reveal, the better! And there are plenty of cases in point. BuyCostumes.com is definitely the place to go when a super sexy Halloween is what you have in mind, and there are so many routes you can take. And on the flip side (sexy, but not overly showy): 2) there are some that say it is sexier to be less revealing because of the mystery factor. Some great examples in this vein are the Sorceress, Egyptian Queen Elite Collection,and Ravena (one of my favorites!).

Sorceress Adult Sexy Costume

Ravena Adult Sexy Costume

Some people don’t need an excuse to be naughty, but for those who do, Halloween is the perfect opportunity! You can never go wrong with a classic, and as far as sexy costumes go, the French Maid is the quintessential Queen of sexy, and no other words need explain why this is the case. Other beloved ladies that fall in this line are the nurse, the school girl, sailor girl, the wench, the Vixen Pirate Wench, the cop, and (God forbid) the Nasty Habit Nun. But with over 700 sexy costumes to choose from, the list goes on and on! Fairy tales, children’s classics, and nursery rhymes: These themes are continually popular because one of the most fun things about Halloween is making the leap from reality to fantasy, and it’s hard to get more fantastical than children’s tales. Aside from that, it brings the delight of innocence to the forefront, juxtaposed with sheer naughtiness; creating a sexy force that is whimsical, wonderful, and virtually unstoppable!

Alice in Wonderland Adult Sexy Costume

Naughty Red Riding Hood Adult Sexy Costume

This explains why a favorite theme this year is Alice In Wonderland. Check them out and you’ll see why! From Miss Wonderland Sexy to Dark Heart Queen, BuyCostumes.com offers the whole dream-theme cast of characters, as well as sexy shoes and accessories to make your ensemble complete. So get going, because you don’t want to be late for your very important date! Other popular choices are , Lil Miss Muffet, and Dorothy Girl.

Dr. Dreamy Adult Sexy Costume

For the guys, here are the home runs! Officer Oliver Clothesoff just can’t help it; he makes the girls misbehave! And ever since Grey’s Anatomy hit the scene, there isn’t a girl in the world that wouldn’t want to be a patient of Dr. Dreamy—or a student—or a nurse.

Want to be a Mile High Captain? Who doesn’t? After all, they get the best care in the air! And the Fireman? Let’s just say that one big reason that firemen become firemen has nothing to do with a love of rushing into burning buildings (but a lot to do with love!). Whatever you decide to wear, may it provide for a hot and steamy Halloween!

Sexy Costumes for a night out on the town

I always thought it would be really fun to have theme nights for girls night out. Every month or as often as your friends get together, have a theme night in place of a regular night out on the town. Get all your friends together and decide on a theme. Better start planning what you are going to wear! Here are my ideas:

1. Behind Bars
These are all costumes related to law enforcement. Everyone in the bar or restaurant will be arrested by this idea. Write out citations for bad pick-up lines, expensive drinks and party crashers! Law enforcement costumes

2. Beer Garden Beautiful
Tavern wenches and beer garden girls have made men all over the world love beer even more. Everyone raise your steins to dressing up! Beer Garden Girl Costumes

3. Wishful Thinking
Dress like creatures that men can only dream about. Fairies will flutter about on your regular Friday night, gracing restaurant patrons with happy thoughts and pixie dust!
Fairy Costumes

4. That's my favorite show!
Nothing is a conversation starter more than someone showing up at your favorite bar dressed as your favorite TV character. Staying in character and showing off your bad acting skills wins bonus points. No autographs please.
TV and Movie Costumes


I can feel the fun coming on already. I think I will start with Wishful thinking...

From Farrah’s flirtatious feathered flip to the Malibu Barbie-inspired pale pink pout, you can be sure that the days of disco are back and more luxe than ever! From San Francisco to Vegas to Milwaukee (believe it or not)-nightclubs are getting on the Volkswagen and providing a place for all the Le Freaks to Shake their Groove Thing.

We’re excited about any reason to get dressed up, so when we heard about ‘Carwash’, we had to check it out. Located in the UK, this place takes themed-clubbing to a new level. Be warned: khakis and a polo shirt will deny you access past the front door. You’ll find specifics under the ‘Dress Code’ section of their website, but you can click here for a few suggestions to get you started–all of them are guaranteed to get you funked up.

What do you do when bell-bottoms and platform shoes have taken over? You’re only choice is to get up and get on the scene with the disco theme.

Can you dig it?

Fantasy Costumes for Valentine's Day

Even if you don't want to admit it, every boyfriend or husband has a fantasy. It doesn't necessarily have to be a "sexy" costume, it can be as simple as wearing a blonde wig. The point is, if you know what the fantasy is, don't be embarrassed to fulfill it. Remember, it isn't always about what happens behind closed doors either! Valentine's Day is about love and what shows love better than dreams come true. Read below for our female fantasies too!


Here are some of our more common "fantasies" at BuyCostumes.

1. Deluxe Blonde Wig
This is a common and fairly tame fantasy. It is something that you can wear out to dinner or wherever you choose to go.
2.Fishnets
This can bring a little spice to your outfit this Valentine's Day. I like to think of this as naughty, but stylish.
3. Sports Fantasy
A lot of boys like sports, but a lot of girls don't. Surprise him next Football Sunday with some extra spirit.
4. Play Cupid
For all you singles out there, dress up like cupid for bar hopping. I am sure that more than one male will be struck with love.
5. Girls can have there fantasies too!
Men in Uniforms. Enough said.

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.
