Hate it: Slutty Halloween Costumes

This is what I despise about Halloween: the goal isn’t to think of a creative and witty costume; it’s to figure out how to make that costume you bought at Target the night before even sluttier.

This is what I despise about Halloween: the goal isn’t to think of a creative and witty costume; it’s to figure out how to make that costume you bought at Target the night before even sluttier. All that’s required is a pair of scissors and some lace, and that pumpkin costume goes from Jack-o’-Lantern to Jack-o’-Licious. Work it, girl.

This Halloween, do me a favor and throw some creativity in there. Don’t just be the slutty nurse—be the slutty nurse with the Russian accent.
