Scrolling through my Instagram and twitter around Halloween can always be interesting. There are so much odd choices of outfits that are on my newsfeed. here are always a lot of parties because people in high school are always looking for some reason to celebrate something and to make a party about it. There are Halloween parties the weekend before Halloween and on the day and even the weekend after to celebrate this lovely Holiday. I absolutely love the idea of Halloween and I think that it is so fun and I wish I wasn't so old so I could still trick or treat. Being someone or something else for a day and such a fun thing to me because you can be anything you can imagine. Going into High School ruins a lot of that fun thought
So as I am scrolling through my news feed and looking at all these people posting pictures in their very skimpy costumes, I am wondering if they even remember what Halloween is all about. Now a days its all about the sexy and scandalous costume and who can look the sexiest in them. I would say that 90% of the Halloween pictures I see are scandalous is some way. It really concerns me how low cut and short some people buy there costumes. I feel like everyone almost thinks it is a contest to see if the can have the shortest costume and things along those line.
I went to the Halloween store the other day with my friend to look for ideas of what we could be to hand out candy at my house. There was about 4 costumes that weren't tiny and sexual. That is literally all they even sell because it is so popular. I understand that that's how everyone else dresses so if you want to fit in at the party you have to wear something like that but there are defiantly some costumes that are a lot worse then others. I think people have truly forgot that Halloween is not all about that and it shouldn't be a contest of who has the sexiest costume. I girl I follow posted a picture of her and her friend and they had very short black skirts on and white button up shirts on but with them all the way unbuttoned so you could see there whole bra. Now I can see that yes there are lots costumes to be that have skimpy outfits but that's not even a costume. If people cant tell what you are by looking at you, that a problem and that's when I for sure draw the line of not okay.
So come one people lets remember what Halloween is all truly about tonight and have fun like when you were little and find a costume that fits properly! Sorry for my strong opinions and I hope I didn't offend anyone! Happy Halloween!
