Setting the Mood: The Haunting

By Kirsten|October 28th, 2013|Setting the Mood|

Halloween doesn’t have to be all about shimmying into synthetic fabric and trips to Ricky’s for costumes in a plastic bags. Rather than looking frightening or freaky, you could spend the night looking fashionable. An evening that’s meant to be about fantasy, this is your moment to beckon your inner seductress or that glamorous goth. While there is a (very) fine line between sexy and skanky, selecting streamlined pieces sans tulle, glitter, and excessive sequins will have you riding the high road instead of gallivanting in the gutter. Accessories with a bit of sparkle will add an extra bit of intrigue to any witchy woman.

Setting the Mood: I’m a Creep

By Kirsten|October 22nd, 2012|Setting the Mood|

Well, I was trying to avoid it altogether… but you can’t fight the calendar. Halloween and its impending skank parade are fast approaching, so we may as well just address this situation head on. Perhaps I’m just old now or I’ve seen one too many “naughty nurse” or “frisky flight attendant” but I’ve about had it with the oh so obvious “insert the word slutty in front of” Halloween costume. It would appear we can turn just about anything erotic… even a skunk. So, how about this year we go for artistic makeup or eery attire as opposed to exposing our ass cheeks for all of the city to see? Let’s keep creepy classy and besides, subtle is most sexy.

The List Volume LVII

By Kirsten|October 21st, 2011|The List|

What used to be a holiday for good ol’ wholesome trick or treating has morphed into one big lingerie party full of lots more tricks than there are treats. Sadly, it seems that girls think as long as you throw the word “sexy” in front of another word, you’ve got a great Halloween costume. Exhibit A: the f*cking “sexy skunk” costume above. Hate to point out the obvious, but skunks smell and well, there’s really nothing sexy about that (sorry, Pepe Le Pew). While I do admit that a sexy skunk is pretty creative, I’m kind of sick of the usual slutty suspects (sexy nurse, sexy cop, sexy pirate, sexy sailor, sexy bee, sexy etc.). Now, I’d be a big fat (sexy) liar if I told you I hadn’t fallen victim to the whole sexy Halloween costume schtick. I’ve been everything from a sexy football player to a sexy Veronica Corningstone (Anchorman). Hey, at least I was creative. I guess that’s my point, if you are gonna go “sexy” this year (and who are we kidding, you know you are), at least be creative. So I’ve compiled a list of ten very un-sexy things that I dare you Halloween hoochies to make slutty.
