Halloween 2008: We’re Playing Dress Up

We’ve begun our search for a Halloween costume. It’s not easy because this year there are sooo many choices!

Our first thought was to get in on the election action and dress up as Sarah Palin. No matter what your politics, a pitbull wearing lipstick is frightening. We hear Raquel Welch’s wig line is striking similar to Palin’s hair. But Tina Fey did such a great Palin impersonation…we could never live up to her brilliance.

Batman’s Joker, the Heath Ledger version, is going to be a hot costume for guys this Halloween. But let’s face it, for us girls its one time when we can be as trashy as we want to be so Catwoman would be a better choice.

Shop Dark Knight and Batman costumes at Like.com.

It might be fun go as a train wreck. It’d be easy: a white wife beater tank and an Amy Winehouse wig like this one for $16.99.

And at the end of the night I won’t go to rehab.

In the end, I think we want to do something subtly spooky. With the popularity of Twilight and the new HBO series True Blood, vampires are super sexy. All we need is a hot outfit and a pair of fangs - this might be the perfect excuse to splurge on that DVF dress.
