We Miss Christmas!

We don't know about you, but we're always sad when Christmas is over, because it means that we can't exactly get away with watching Will Ferrell's Elf on repeat. Let's talk about elves, baby. In particular, let's talk about elf costumes and some great options for dressing the part of one of Santa's helpers.

F
or starters, there is the classic Red and Green Velvet Elf Costume, which makes a splendid stand-alone costume or a base for holiday elven attire. Slip on the velvet one-piece red and green tunic, wrap the golden cord belt around your waist, on with the included hat and shoes, and off you go! There are golden belts and pom poms attached to the garment as well.
Not in the market for velvet elvishness? There's also the simpler, matte style 
Red and Green Elf Tunic to serve as your base garment or stand-alone. This tunic comes with a hat, cord belt, and shoes, all in red and green alternating colors. There are no bells on this one, but there are certainly pom poms! Bells can be added on to the belt, hat, or shoes with a bit of do-it-yourself needle and thread work.

For elvish wear of a solid color, there's the 
Green Peter Pan Costume, which comes with a tunic, hat, and tights, all in green. And of course, since elves like cord belts (so it seems?!), there's a white cord belt included as well. This tunic has dagged edges on the hem and sleeves, as well as a folded collar and a lace-up neck.
An even simpler green elf can be created with the Simple Green Elf Costume. Really to the point: green pull-over tunic without sleeves, a black sash, and green hat.

Already got an elf costume base? Looking to accessorize, perhaps?

Though not technically an accessory, the 
green adult long-sleeved bodysuitadds form fitted style to an elf ensemble. Also in the form fitting vein, there are Red and Green parti-colored tights and children's seamless green tights.

More formally an accessory: 
Green plush elf shoes. And then there are green elf suspenders and red fuzzy Santa hats, for outfitting the mini helpers in the style of their boss man, Mr. Kringle. And for your bag of goodies, use a velvet Santa Sack. Red and gold, with a shoulder strap - perfect for hauling gifts for the big guy.

And these are only a few ideas for holiday elf attire. Go classic... or even go wild. Assemble a basic elf costume, and then add some 
punk rock accessories for a "hardcore" look, or a mardi gras mask for an even greater festive look, or maybe even some hippy accessories to send a Peace on Earth message all around!

Who Says St. Patty's Isn't a Holiday?

       We might not be Irish, but that doesn't mean that here at Halloween Adventure, we can't enjoy St. Patrick's Day! In fact, we adore the holiday - you know us, we'll take any excuse to get dressed up! Even better, we'll take any excuse to deck the halls. In our case, that means purchasing a whole bunch of green decorations, like this St. Patrick's Day Bunting Garlandas well as a variety of other decorations for the specifically St. Patty's day themed section of our site.  
        Our favorite costume is an Adult Leprechaunoutfit with an oversized head. Don't worry, the headpiece has see-through mesh eyes, so you won't be stumbling around like a blind man. You will, however, be attracting the attention of all those around you in your fantastically realistic looking getup! Trust us, this is one HILARIOUS outfit you can't afford to miss! 

 
      Girls can take part in the fun as well with our fabulously greenLeprechaun Child Costume. This outfit isn't too over the top, so she could wear it to school or to a party at her friend's house and feel totally fabulous. It includes a green dress, black jacket, and leprechaun belt and matching hat. Voila, you've gone green! Boys will love our funny (and way more over the top) version! This yellow and green confection is PERFECT for the class clown- it even includes a hilarious beard! The hat and the outfit are all there. It's the best way to celebrate while still having a good time.  Even toddlers can get in on the fun withthis comfy adorable green outfit! It includes a little green velvet jacket, with matching hat and belted detail. Perfect for the tot who loves to play dress up!  Go off and hunt for the gold at the end of the rainbow! We'll see you there!

Step2
Tie a few green mylar shamrock balloons to the front of the house or the front gate and screw a green "party" lightbulb into the outside light so that your guests will know where the party is.

Pass out "Kiss me, I'm Irish" buttons to your guests as they arrive. Make everyone wear them.

Serve both a traditional Irish beer (such as Guinness) and a cheaper light beer that you can dye green with food coloring; don't forget the green Jell-O shots!

Deck the Halls with Love!

Deck the halls with love and romance!

Valentine's Day is right around the corner, and we're thinking that if you're anything like us, you still haven't finalized which sexy costume you'll be wearing! Many people think costumes are just for Halloween, but we find costumes so fun that we can't resist wearing them on other holidays as well. Valentine's Day is one of these holidays - and we've found many sexy and sassy costumes on Halloween Adventure's website. Jam packed with all kinds of costumes and props, Halloween Adventure has everything a Valentine's Day lover could ask for. Skip the average chocolate and card routine and do something different. Spice it up!
In the past, we've sported the usual costumes, but this year, we're trying something new. We've been a love bug and a cupid, but this Valentine's Day, we're going to be a Hollywood starlet! This sexy and sultry red silk dress screams screen siren - and there's nothing better than that, especially when you want to give your man something to be thankful for! With a sequin garter and a faux fur stole, this is a costume that can't be beat in the sexy department.
That is, unless you're into uniforms. In that case, we'd recommend you take a look at the Ally Catraz Costume - jail never looked so good! A hot orange mini dress that zips and unzips to leave as little or as much to the imagination as you please; this costume is sure to get your gentlemen's engine revving. This naughty girl has been bad, and she needs to be tamed! Take her out of jail and into the bedroom and give your guy a Valentine's night he'll never forget!

Looking for other options? Check out even more sexy costumes here, and take home the gold medal for sassiest wife around on Valentine's Day.
