Follow the yellow brick road!

We're off to see the Wizard!






We’re off to see the Wizard!

            This Halloween, pay homage to one of the greatest stories ever told: that of Dorothy and her journey to the Emerald City. Here at Halloween Adventures, we have a myriad of costumes for the perfect Wizard of Oz tribute.

            We start our journey with the adorable munchin girls Dorothy meets in her first few moments in the Emerald City.Our Munchkin Girl Adult TV Wizard of Oz Costume is the best. Munchkin Girl is having fun in her emerald green dress with attached apron in lavender, and lavender collar and in the sleeves. Munchkin pointed hat with flower on end and of course the striped black and white socks complete this petite outfit.

            Next to the munchkin girls are the munchkin kids. You know, the ones that sing with those giant lollipops in their hands. Trippy, perhaps, but a great idea for a costume! Try our Munchkin Kid Adult TV Wizard of Oz Costume, which includes a multi colored shirt with white collar, front button accents, Green shorts, and Green & White stripe leggings. We wish to welcome you to munchkin land!

            Then there is, of course, the mayor of Munchkinland! A powerful man he is, and a powerful man you’ll be in ourMunchkinland Mayor Adult TV Costume. This deluxe costume includes: Green pants with draw-string waist, Green jacket with tails & attached multi-colored vest (color pattern may vary, our choice please), bow tie (with Velcro for attaching) and a green hat.

            Who can forget the Good Witch Glinda? In our Wizard of Oz Sexy Glinda Costume, you won’t soon be forgotten, that’s for sure! This costume includes a gorgeous light pink dress and headpiece. Just snag yourself a starry wand and some good intentions and you’re good to go! Don’t want to go the sexy route? Try our Wizard of Oz Glinda Movie Costume, an exact replication of Glinda’s beautiful pink gown from the film. Comes complete with a beautiful, full pink dress with tiny silver stars and a matching silver foam crown.

            Of course, there’s always the all important Dorothy, around whom the entire story centers! Our Wizard of Oz Dorothy Adult Costume  includes a polyester gingham print dress with an attached white 'blouse'. Ruby slippers are necessary, of course, and are sold separately HERE.

Devilish Divas!




We don't know why, but lately, we've been feeling just a little bit devilish - we've been feeling inclined to whip out our favorite devil costumes. Maybe there's some red venom in the air! Lucky for us, Halloween Adventure has plenty of devil costumes to assuage our wantings.
This Adult Plus Size Devil costume is for the evil temptress who's large and in charge. Big and beautiful, but with a heart as cold as ice. With a red dress and matching devil horns, this is an outfit you can't miss! 
We're also big fans of the Devilish Dear costume. This outfit is half devil, half angel - a dark angel, that is! With black and red accents, this beautiful costume features a ruched minidress with multiple layers. With a sassy petticoat miniskirt and matching horns, this outfit is so pretty you might want to wear out on your next date! 
If you like going all out, we'd recommend our Devil's Temptress costume. This full evening gown is red and black and is half devilish half vampire - with stand up collar, lace details, and a full petticoat, it's a historical outfit that's devilishly gorgeous!
Suit up your red dresses, ladies - this is going to be a evil evening!

Take a ride with Pirates of the Caribbean Costumes!

Everyone knows a Pirates of the Caribbean 4 is being plotted as we speak, and mega producer Jerry Bruckheimer has already announced that Johnny Depp will return as Captain Jack Sparrow – but what about Depp’s main co-stars Keira Knightley (Elizabeth Swan) and Orlando Bloom (Will Turner). Will either of them have a role in the franchise from part four forward?

 

Moviefone caught up with Knightley while the actress was doing press for her new film The Edge of Love, and it doesn’t seem like the gal is all too interested in donning the damsel in distress gear any time soon. On returning for the sequel, she notes: “It was a completely fantastic experience, and it was an amazingly large portion of my life, but I don't think I need to go there again. I think that it's done. But I'm very excited to see the next one. And [Johnny Depp] is so wonderful in that character. I think it'll be wonderful.”

Keira may have turned down her part, but the show must go on! Maybe we'll audition? We have such great pirate costumes, right guys? You all have consistently caused our pirate stock to sell out, so we must be doing something right! Check out our selection of pirate costumes here. Ladies, check out our gorgeous Renaissance and Medieval dresses. They're similar to the garb Keira dons in the films, and they are B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L. Here are some ideas:

If you’re scared to go all out, dip your feet in the water with our Lock Lace Bodice Renaissance Costume. Pair with pants or a skirt for a fabulous costume! The superb cut cups the breast for a perfect lift. Double boning in the front dips below the navel for a flat profile. Lacing in the 54 grommets up the back sides and front allows for custom fitting. Made of durable cotton twill in burgundy and trimmed in gold gimp, this bodice is engineered to last for years. A hidden pocket keeps the four pieces of spring-steel boning in place, and reinforces the front grommets.

            If you think you’ve got the guts to go all out, try our Lock Lace Bodice Dress Costume. This costume is like the milkmaid gone bad, with a gorgeous multi layered purple and fuchsia skirt, white peasant shirt and sexy bodice top. More, please!  The superb cut cups the chest for a perfect lift. Double boning in the front dips below the navel for a flat profile.

            Dress like the women of old time Italy in our Maiden of Verona Adult Renaissance costume. This costume is gorgeous, and features a lovely long purple and ivory panne gown with gold trim accents and a matching headpiece. It’s almost reminiscent of something Maid Marian would wear while waiting for Sir Robin Hood!

Wonder Woman costumes for girls!






WONDER WOMAN COSTUMES

            Channel that fabulous woman sent by the all female Amazons to the “man’s world.” Wonder Woman’s powers include super-strength, hand-to-hand combat ability, and flight. She also makes use of her Lasso of Truth (which forces those bound by it to tell the truth), a pair of bullet-deflecting bracelets, and an invisible plane. Lucky for you, we’ve got a bunch of Wonder Woman costumes to help you become the badass superhero you’ve always wanted to be!

            Start with sexy in our Wonder Babe Adult Superhero Costume. This sexy super hero costume includes a red cape and a gold red blue and white dress with a red sequin star. This one is guaranteed to have everyone staring at your goods, so it might not be the best choice for an office Halloween party, but it’s definitely good for a party party!

            Looking for the real deal? Check out our Wonder Woman Adult Superhero Costume. This one is straight of the DC comics, and might just remind you of the costume Rachel Bilson wore as Summer on the OC the night she made Seth Cohen choose between her and Anna (we were always a Summer fan, all the way).

             Wonder girls can sport our Wonder Woman Children’s Superhero Costume.Costume includes: Gold headband with Red Star, Red cape, Red, White & Blue leotard, Gold belt & lasso, Silver bracelets and Red & White boot tops. Looks great paired with a Superman costume!

            For something a bit different, try our Wonder Woman Deluxe Historical Superhero costume, a hybrid outfit that pairs the DC comic hero with Alice in Wonderland’s Queen of Hearts. This costume includes long dress with queen card print top and red bottom, heart-styled tiara, heart wand, and choker with heart pendant.

            Whichever Wonder Woman you choose to be, remember that the best part of a costume like this is that it requires a good deal of self confidence! Put one of these babies on and get ready to rock it this Halloween, because you’re here and you’re fabulous!
