Wholesale Halloween Costumes.com Costume Review!

 I LOVE Halloween. I always have. Everyone goes to my Grandma Ryans, eat an insane amount of pizza, eat even more brownies, and then go trick or treating. Even my brother goes trick or treating with me. Last year was the first year I didn't get to go trick or treating with my family. This year I have class, which obviously means I am skipping it and celebrating anyways. Besides, it is Ella's first Halloween. I HAVE to go! I am not missing my nieces first Halloween for anything.

I recently got in touch with Wholesale Halloween Costumes.com and got a chance to review one of their awesome costumes. I chose the "Wonderlicious" costume. I know, it sounds ridiculous. But all it really is is an off-brand wonder women costume. I was worried about the quality of the costume. The packaging and everything seemed pretty legit though. It has a really nice plastic cover. Even if I hated the costume, the cover is worth it.


 I pulled out the costume and was immediately relieved. It is so soft. It is a mix of polyester and spandex so it has that soft but stretchy feel.  Plus the colors are really vibrant.
I really like the way it feels on. It fits perfect. The front is adjustable - which means I can hover between showing the boobs line of slut and nun. The top is a halter, so again it is adjustable.
I only have one problem with it. It is REALLY short. I mean, it doesn't even completely cover my underwear. I know it is a "sexy costume" but jeez! I would at least like my ass covered. I am going to have to wear leggings with it. It is the only way I wont flash every person in the room.
The costume comes with these cute little accessories. I got a headband and arm bands. They are nice, considering most costume accessories. They are made of the same fabric and have a cute little red star on each piece.

Make sure if you are looking for new 2012 costumes this year, you need to check out wholesale costumes. They always have a TON on sale which is awesome.

On a random note, if you want to study costumes in school, check out NYU for their costume programs!

My Daphne Halloween Costume Review

I love Halloween. Every year I dress up, trick or treat, hand out candy. Up until this year, I've always gone to my grandmas house. I have some great memories from there. The whole family would come over and hang out. My brother, close family friends, my uncle. My dad would always order tons of pizza for everyone, and my grandma made the best brownies. Have you ever tried brownies with candy bars inside? AMAZING! This year I was given an Adult Halloween Costume from Costume Super Center. I received the Daphne from Scooby Doo costume.
I was really excited about this costume. I watched Scooby Doo as a kid, plus I love the movie! (I don't care if im 18! I still love it!) Daphne has always been my favorite, because she has red hair like me!
The dress is really cute! It fits me really well. It is slightly big, which means I'll be able to layer or two underneath. The only problem I can find with it is that it is a "standard size." My friend Hannah is a twig, and she would swim in this outfit. If I was a size 12, like it says it fits, I doubt I would fit into it. There is only a bit more give left on me.
 The boot covers are about average quality. They fit over my pants, so that is a plus for me! I tend to layer on Halloween! But even over normal boots it fits perfectly.
The wig is really the only downfall of this costume. It is really really small. I feel like the wig is meant for a child, not an adult. Even when I have it on, it just looks ridiculous. I've tried putting a scrunchie in my hair to fix it, and it made it even worse! So if you are going to buy this costume, you should probably buy a different wig or just spray your hair red.


Over all, this costume is a great value. If you want to buy an Adult Halloween Costume, check out Costume Super Store. You can also follow the Costume SuperCenter on twitter!

I was provided this costume in exchange for my honest opinion.
