Dressing The Part

If this post is a little wonky I blame my new computer (which I love...it's just very different from my old one).  Anyways since tomorrow is that wonderful event called Halloween, I thought I would help all of you procrastinators find some last minute costumes :-) These are some of the beaten trail looks to set you apart from all of the Harry Potters and Katniss's out there (not that there is anything wrong with those at all)

Zombie Elizabeth

This perfect mix of horror and classics comes to us from that great novel Pride Prejudice and Zombies...and may be my costume for next year

Little White Witch

This little White Witch from The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is perfect.  I totally want to meet this awesome mom and daughter duo who came up with this!

 

Dragonrider

I'm not 100% sure that this person intended for this to be a dragon and rider from The Dragonriders of Pern, but I think it would be perfect for just that...so that is what it is :-)

 

Bloody Khaleesi

Yes this lovely dragon queen from the Games of Thrones will probably be all over the place, but add a bloody heart and some gooey gore and you have yourself a show stopper

50 "shades" of grey

Bwahahahaha...ok ok I know this one has been making the rounds this year, but this literal 50 Shades of Grey costume is just to wonderful to not mention.

Ok slackers, I hope I have given you some ideas for some not so run of the mill literary costumes to astound and confuse your friends this year, let me know what you all where this year and Happy Trick or Treating!

 

What is your dream literary costume? How do you make a  popular character unique?  Am I way to old to be dressing up and terrorizing the neighborhood for candy?
