Cool Halloween Costumes – After talking about some creative Halloween ideas, as well as some funny and last minute ones, it is now time to talk about some cool halloween costume ideas. So just what makes a Halloween costume cool? When I am talking about cool here, I am not talking about something which has been in the fridge for a while and hence it is cool. To borrow the meaning from a dictionary, the word cool refers to “an admired aesthetic of attitude, behavior, comportment, appearance and style” and is often used as an “expression of admiration or approval”. I guess the term cool is more closely associated with teenagers, the girls and the boys as well as for kids. Of course I would not rule out getting a cool halloween costume for the adults either for the men or women!
I am not sure what were the cool Halloween costumes in 2009 or 2010 and surely I am unable to predict what is to come for 2011. I can only think that with the release of some new movies, the trend will shift towards Halloween costumes being created to resemble characters from these movies. Anyways here are some cool Halloween costumes ideas that I would like to share with everyone!
While I have talked about creative Halloween costumes in my previous article, cool halloween costumes is seriously another genre. First up, how about some cool Halloween costumes for guys? Well let us look at this DC Comics Boys Trio Action Set Dress Up Trunk. What so cool about this Halloween costume set is that it gives you three cool Halloween costumes for the price of one at less than $25! Kinda unbelievable don’t you think? This Halloween costume set includes costumes of three superheroes, you get the Batman costume with the Batman Tabard (a short coat) with attached cape and headpiece, the Superman costume as the Superman Tabard with attached cape and boot tops as well as the Robin costume with the Robin Tabard with attached cape, eyemask and gauntlets.
While you might argue that they are not providing a full costume and only a tabard and some accessories for each superhero, I think this is great value for money considering that you can save some money just by getting something simple which everyone can guess who you are. While this is very suitable for young kids aged three to ten, adults can join in the fun too by wearing the tabard and accessories. Good thing is your kids can interchange between the different costumes when they want to. The reviews for this has been very good so far with the majority giving it five and four stars. How is that for really cool Halloween costumes for kids?
Next up, I have also found some cool Halloween costumes for teens. Are you a Transformers fan? Because if you are, prepared to be blown away by one of the super cool Halloween costumes, the Transformers Bumblebee Role Play Helmet! Well ok it is not quite a Halloween costume, but seriously it can become one if you put in more effort. First you may want to get the Bumblebee plasma canon and the Bumblebee deluxe gloves which would give you more meat to your skeleton body. Of course you can always choose not to buy these separate attachments but they would make your disguise (get it robots in disguise?) more complete. And I would recommend either wearing a set of yellow shirt and pants, or get a yellow box and wear it over your body to simulate as bumblebees body. Now that is simple a cool Halloween costume idea and a great way to learning how to make a cool Halloween costume. This may even qualify as a last minute Halloween costume! Of course you can always just get the Bumblebee costume!
Another nice find, perhaps as a cool halloween costume ideas for tweens, is the V For Vendetta Mask. V For Vendetta is a ten-issue graphic novel series set in a dystopian future United Kingdom. It has also been adapted into a movie. The main plot is about a shadowy freedom fighter known only as "V" who wears this Guy Fawkes mask and uses terrorist tactics to fight against his totalitarian society. He also rescues a girl from the secret police and finds in her a very good ally. There has been many good comments about this cool mask. The mask is thin and light and hence good to wear with secure straps to fasten it to the face. It looks exactly like the mask in the movie, shape size and all. You can even wear your glasses under the mask because there is plenty of room for them. If you are a V For Vendetta fan, it is highly recommended that you get this item. And it only costs $5.99!!!
If you like Star Wars, I think you can get some really cool pet Halloween costumes. Just take a look at these dog costumes and you would seriously be wowed over. Almost any Star Wars character can turn into a dog now, so may the force be with your pets too! These are the coolest pet Halloween costumes I have seen so far, and I think they can be used on other pets too other than dogs! Choose from Darth Vader, Yoda or Princess Leia.
Aren't they adorable!
Aren't they adorable!
Well that is about all the really cool halloween costume ideas that I can write about for now. I believe there is plenty more where that came from. Hopefully I can introduce some cool halloween costumes for couples and tweens too. But do note that the word cool is open to interpretation, while one Halloween costume can be really cool to someone, another might find it offensive or downright ugly or disgusting. So do take note of this and hope you enjoy the pictures of cool halloween costumes on my Funny Halloween Costume Ideas blog. Keep it easy and real!
