Sexy Cheeky Butt Out Cowgirl Halloween Costume - SMALL

Sexy cowgirl costume includes cowboy hat, neckband, bra top with faux fur trim, pant legs with faux fur, belt and thong. (pants looks like chaps)

Do you remember the good times when you had during the 50's? The decade when Rock and Roll was born? The decade that meant good times is just starting? The fly, the twist, the mambo jambo, the rhumba, the La Bamba, the Boogie and those other wild crazy dancing? What about the fashion? Do you remember what it's like during those times? During this decade, the raw materials of Scottish tweeds and English worsted suit materials were renowned as being of exceptional quality.

The wools were also used by the French and the British did everything they could to promote the fine materials with fine designs. The result would be 1950s glamour. But before that, 18-year-old girls used to dress up as if they are older than their mothers and with the revolutionary style of the late 1950's, out-of-style fashion and elaborate designs came out with a rampage. Wouldn't it be fun to relive those 1950's fashion even just once every year? How about this coming Halloween? You can even opt to celebrate it wearing the Fifties Halloween costumes.

If you're thinking about 50's-styel Halloween costumes, perhaps, the closest thing that you're going to get is an Elvis Presley costume. The King of Rock n Roll was famous not only for his cornerstone fusion of rock n rolls, country, rhythm and blues and gospel music, but he was also famous for the clothes that he wore.

Even up to now, you can still see some traces of Elvis influence wherever you go. Why, even making the collar of your sports shirt stand from one shoulder to another reaching both of your ears is a sure sign of Elvis-style clothing. Costumes of the King of Rock and Roll are always in high demand and this has been further fueled by both Stag Night parties and, more lately, cricket fans where you commonly see a whole group of Elvis running around either swaying their pelvis or just walking cat-style.

Elvis has always had a distinctive style and any age group will surely be fascinated by his guts of being different from the rest. And even in any different occasion or just on ordinary days, people find themselves fancy a clothing style influenced by Elvis.

Today, a lot of costume retailers have a wide selection of Elvis and other 50's, late 50's and early 60's costumes that will surely make heads turn during the Halloween event. There are even some available elaborate Elvis costumes that would tickle the fancy of show performers and impersonators anywhere.

But always remember, you don't have to be expensive to be genuine and a stand-out. You can just dress up an early-Elvis costume that's made up of skinny fit jeans, white tee, black jacket, a gel-style combed-back hair and a pair of stick-on sideburns and you is done.

But what if you don't want to be like Elvis? Well, you don't have to miss out the Halloween fun just because you don't want to look like The King. Cats can wear jeans with turn-ups, the same white tee and swept-back "greased" hair and the chicks can go around with clam digger trousers, tight jumper and a chiffon scarf worn in the hair and if you think that the sun still shines on you even if it's night time already, go and get some 50's-style dark sunglasses.

So, whether you want to be like Elvis, Fats Domino, Ritchie Valens or The Platters, for sure, you can find these Fifties Halloween costumes to be a stand-out in the crowd, whether you bought it offline or online or you might have made one for your own by yourself.

Sexy Cuddly Lion Costume Adult

Includes a dress with attached tail, plush ears, arm warmers and leg warmers. Shoes not included.

On Halloween, children of all ages don their carefully chosen costumes of ghosts, super heroes, monsters, and everything in between, and head out at sunset to roam the streets, going door to door asking neighbors for candy and other yummy treats. In the beginning, though, Halloween was more than just a fun time for children. Halloween is a very old holiday, dating back to pagan traditions.

Celtic Tradition

Its origins date back to a Celtic festival called Samhain (pronounced Sah-ween or Sow-in). The Celts celebrated the beginning of the new year on November 1st. On the last evening of the year, October 31, they believed that the ghosts of the dead returned to the earth. These ghosts roamed the world, causing damage to crops and performing other mischief, as they searched for living bodies to possess.

Not surprisingly, the living were not keen to have their bodies inhabited by these ghosts, so on that night, they would dress in scary costumes, and parade the town, hoping to frighten the spirits away, and make it to the morning unscathed.

After the Celtics lands were taken by the Romans, Samhain was absorbed with two Roman holidays. Feralia was a day in October to commemorate the passing of the dead. Pomona was a day to celebrate the goddess of fruit and trees. (The symbol of Pomona was an apple, which may explain the adoption of the Halloween tradition of bobbing for apples.)

All Saints and All Souls

In the 7th century, in an attempt to replace substitute Samhain with a Christian holy day, the Catholic Church named November 1 as All Saint's Day, a day to honor saints and martyrs. The church tried again in the 9th century, making November 2 All Souls Day, a day when the living prayed for the souls of the dead. Neither attempt was very successful. Trick-or-treating is said to have developed from the All Souls Day custom of people going village to village begging for "soul cakes" bread made with currants. The more cakes they received, the more prayers they would offer on behalf of the givers dead relatives who were in purgatory. However, some sources say that this tradition had all but disappeared long before the North American tradition of trick-or-treating began.

By the 1500s, All Saint's Day had become All Hallows' Day, and Samhain had begun to be known as All Hallows' Evening, Hallow Evening, and eventually, Halloween. After the Reformation, Halloween celebrations were combined with Guy Fawkes' Day (November 5).

Halloween in North America

In the New World, Halloween was not celebrated. In fact, because of the Puritan tradition, all celebrations were considered immoral and even Christmas was scarcely observed before the 1800s.

Halloween was not a popular festival, but it did increase in popularity with the arrival of two million Irish immigrants fleeing the potato famine. Nonetheless, by the end of the Civil War, in 1865, less than 5% of the United States population (mostly the Catholics and Episcopalians) celebrated Halloween and All Saints' Day. Determined to continue these traditions, the churches started campaigns to popularize the celebration. There is little documentation, however on Halloween prior to the 1900s.

IN 1921, Anoka, Minnesota had the first official citywide Halloween celebration. In 1923, New York joined in and LA in 1925. It was not long before Halloween was a nationwide celebration.

Customer Review: Hot Dog Brandy
I was well pleased with this product. Shipping was lightning fast. It was correct size and was the hit of family get-together.
Customer Review: Didn't stay on very well...
This costume is interesting. It is pretty flimzy across the back. It just straps under the tummy. We couldn't get it to stay on our dog.

Create a memorable walkway. Trick or treaters will be coming up and down your walkway all night on Halloween. So you'll want to do something special for Halloween to decorate. An inexpensive way to decorate is with paper bag lumineres. You can make these with paper lunch bags, small rocks and tea lights. Cut small images in each paper bag -- like a pumpkin or a witch hat. Then add some rocks to the bottom of each luminere as it lines your walkway. Add a tea light and light it. The lumineres will glow softly and people will see the images that you cut out.

Add a Halloween-themed wreath to the door. Your door should have a Halloween-themed wreath to greet everyone that comes to your door. A fun Halloween-themed wreath to make is to use silk roses to create a wreath and then spray them to be colored black or even silver. A wreath that is a unique color will get lots of attention. A black wreath is especially attention getting for Halloween.

Don't forget Jack (O'Lanterns)! Now what would Halloween be without Jack O'Lanterns? Every home should have Jack O'Lanterns in front of their doorstep. But you want your home to look original. An easy way to get an original look is to do a Jack O'Lantern for each family member in a very simple carving style. Cut two holes for the eyes and a hole for the mouth. These bold, expressive Jack O'Lanterns will be the envy of the neighborhood and everyone will notice just how great your porch looks.

Set the scene with spooky music. Every home should welcome their Halloween guests with spooky -- or Halloween themed --- music. You can easily find soundtracks at party centers or large discount stores. Set up your CD player right by the door, or put a speaker in your mailbox. Another option is to open a second floor window and pipe the music through that. Be sure to be considerate of your neighbors and turn the music off before 9:30 p.m. as many will be putting kids to bed or turning in themselves.

Greet your guests dressed in Halloween style. Get into the total Halloween spirit with a Halloween costume that suits your home's decor. If your home is extra spooky, then you should be dressed in something spooky. If your home is quaint and cute -- then you too should be dressed in something quaint and cute. Party rental stores are great places to find adult costumes perfect to get for Halloween. Or you can easily purchase a Halloween costume to wear for this special night. Online resources such as http://www.pumpkinkits.com offer many ideas and this will give you the perfect looking home that the whole neighborhood will be talking about all season long!

COMPUTERS AND HALLOWEEN, DO THEY MIX?

Computer backup is so important to your computer that to ignore it is to risk its damnation.

Computers require care and feeding. They require that you attend to their needs. If you dont, then they will most surely be sent to Hell.

Halloween means Hell. What! What do you mean that Halloween means Hell?

Well, if your computer is given the option of trick or treat, which will it accept? Will it accept the trick or the treat? What do you think?

Halloween is the time that computers are subject to tricks or treats. Did you know that more computers fail on Halloween than any other day of the year? Thats right. Its true (smile). Your computer is in danger! Protect it. Do your computer backups.

Back to the Hell thing. Hell you say? Yep. Well, what do you mean by Hell?

Computer hell is the place for computers without computer backup. The failure to perform hard drive backup means that you are playing Russian Roulette with your data. Data needs your protection. Failure to protect your data may cause your home or business records to be sent to Hell.

Hell in this instance is for the records and files that cannot be resurrected. Resurrected you say, what does that mean?

It means that without computer backup as a source of salvation then the files can safely enjoy eternal oblivion. Oblivion you say, what does that mean? That means they are eternally lost from computer resurrection.

Is there any mercy for my precious files, you ask?

Why yes there is. Would like to know what the mercy for your files is? Yes! Yes! You say.

OK boys and girls listen carefully. The salvation, mercy, resurrection and redemption of your files lies in regular and consistent and persistent computer backup.

With Halloween fast approaching, Executive Defense Technology is doing a lot of radio and TV interviews on Halloween safety for your kids. An area that they are being quizzed on is safety tips for teenagers that head out for a night of fun.

Remember, Halloween is for teens, too. It is an incredibly exciting time for them because this is the age where kids want to venture out for Trick-or-Treat fun without their parents. They are at an age where being on their own is not only cool but a necessary part of their development as they make their way into adulthood. The good news for you is that you can let them go with a few common sense safety tips:

1. Teenagers should head out in a group of least four individuals or more. Heading out alone is not an option! Make sure your teenager is with a group of good friends. Make sure that they know everyone well. Halloween is not a good time to be running around costumed in the dark with strangers or new friends they are not very familiar with.

2. Make sure you know exactly where your teenager will be when they are out. Ask them what their plans for the night are and hold them to it. Knowing where your teenager is on Halloween, is not about not trusting them, it is about safety. It is about you, the parent being able to find them in an emergency. Send your child out with a cell phone and have then check in periodically, every 45 minutes/ hour - whatever the two of you agree upon, just to let you know where they are and that they are okay.

3. Teenagers also need to keep their eyes open for the smaller, younger kids. This is one of the nights of the year where all age groups mix together. Teens, even with the excitement of being out on their own should keep their eyes open for the younger kids in case there is someone who needs help or just to simply keep from running into them or tripping over them. Smaller kids are more easily injured when running into larger kids simply because they are smaller.

4. Set a specific time with your child that they need to be home. This year, Halloween falls on a weekday. This means kids have school the next day. Have them home no later than 10 p.m. It will take another hour or so for them to calm down and relax before they can head to bed. Yes, tomorrow, they'll be tired but the day after is also a part of Halloween memories.

What about those younger ghosts and goblins? How can we keep them safe? Actually, one of the biggest threats that parents sometimes overlook on this fun day isn't going to come from a poisoned piece of candy or a predator lurking in the bushes. Although, we don't want to minimize those risks either. The biggest danger on Halloween for kids is - injuries from tripping and falling. The majority of injured children showing up in the Emergency Room will do so with broken arms or wrists, chipped teeth and cuts and bruises from falling or tripping in the dark due to excitement and obstructed vision from masks.

As parents, we are enjoying ourselves visiting with neighbors and talking as we travel "around the block" from house to house. While you do so, here are some tips for keeping your kids safe so everyone can have a fun, memorable, safe evening:

1. Arm you kids with flashlights so they can negotiate their way down dark paths. A small, bright light that fits nicely in their hands is best. Make sure any flashlight has fresh batteries and illuminates well. Carry one yourself.

2. Remind the kids, before leaving the house about street safety. In their excitement, don't let them rush out in front of a car. Larry Elliott, of Executive Defense Technology, also recommends placing reflective tape on your child's shoes and on their costumes.

3. Make sure your child's shoes fit and are tied properly. Keep costumes above the ground by a few inches so your youngster doesn't trip on it while walking and running.

And since we don't want to forget about "Personal Safety", make sure your children (young and older) follow these suggestions so they don't become "easy targets" for predators:

1. Stay in well lit areas and avoid dark, lonely locations / paths.

2. Be aware of your surroundings at all times. If someone makes you uncomfortable, cross the street, head the other direction and go to a house of a family that you know and trust. (Review "Safe Houses" with your kids BEFORE Halloween so they know exactly where they can go for help)

3. Never give your name or details about yourself to a stranger.

4. Only visit the houses of the neighbors that you know and are familiar with - don't drop your children off in areas you are unfamiliar with.

5. Let the adults be the one to answer the door to Trick-or-Treaters. Don't let the children answer by themselves.

6. Never get close to or into a strangers car or go with them ANYWHERE. If a car pulls up, advise your children to take a few steps back. They should never get close enough so they can be grabbed unexpectedly. If someone needs help or directions, they should be asking an adult - not a child!

7. If you are approached, use your voice! FBI statistics say that 70-80% of assaults can be stopped by good verbal boundaries alone.

Staying safe is a choice! We still have a few days before the Halloween holiday - practice and rehearse safety with your kids so they know what is expected of them and how to prevent accidents or assaults BEFORE they happen.

Have a safe, fun Halloween!

Adult Robot Halloween Costume (Standard Size)

The Fourth Of July is an American holiday somewhere between Memorial Day and Labor Day.
It is a time when Americans celebrate their unique heritage and eating hot dogs are as traditional
as apple pie. During the eighteen-sixties, hots dogs were sold from pushcarts by German immigrants in the Bowery section of New York City along with sauerkraut and milk rolls. They were originally made from pork products. Nowdays, they are also made with turkey and beef or all beef making them a much healthier food choice. The bun has always been an important part of what makes a hot dog so special. For the carb and the cholesterol concious, sugar-free whole wheat buns are substituted.

The hot dog meal begins with a chili and cheese combination that includes: dill relish, prepared mustard
and some chopped onion.

Chili Cheese Hot Dog

1-turkey and beef or an all-beef hot dog, pre-cooked

2-heaping Tlbs. commerically prepared brick chili, pre-heated

1-hot dog bun, toasted in a skillet

1-tsp. prepared mustard

1-tsp. dill relish

1/2-cup chopped onion

1/2-cup shredded cheese

Directions: Open the hot dog bun and butter it. Heat a skillet and toast the bun. Place the cooked hot dog inside it and top with the pre-heated chili and the cheese. Place under a broiler heated to 350 degrees and cook for five minutes. Remove and add the mustard, the relish and the chopped onion. Serve with french fries and cole slaw.

Easy Cole Slaw

(Serves 4)

1-package cole slaw, chopped>br>
1/2-cup shredded carrots

1/2-cup onion, chopped

1/2-cup bell pepper, chopped

Salt & pepper

1-Tlb. olive oil

1-tsp. rice wine vinegar

Directions: Combine the vegetables. In a separate bowl: Wisk the olive oil and the rice wine vinegar. Season with the salt and the pepper. Pour the dressing over the ingredients and toss until the ingredients are well combined.

Hot Dogs And Sauerkraut

1-hot dog, pre-cooked

1-hot dog bun

1-slice onion, cut into half

Sauerkraut, pre-cooked

Sweet hot mustard

Directions: On an un-heated bun add the mustard evenly and put the cooked hot dog into it. Add the sauerkraut, the mustard and the onion slice. Serve with some corn chips and baked beans.

Baked Beans

(Serves 4)

2-cans prepared baked beans

1-heaping Tlb. brown sugar

1-heaping Tlb. mustard

3/4-cup ketchup

1-tsp molasses

Salt & pepper

Directions: Combine the ingredients and season with the salt and the pepper. Line a medium baking dish with foil. Pour the ingredients into the baking dish and bake in a 350 degree oven until they are done.

Sometimes, hot dogs are really delicious when they are cooked in a skillet and then put inside a cold hot dog bun with only some mustard for added flavor.

The hot dog meal ends with a favorite flavor of ice cream scopped into an individual bowl or dipped onto the top of an ice cream cone.

Adult's Super Mario Halloween Costume (Size: Large 42-44)

Customer Review: Pretty good for a quick Halloween costume with a popular character
Its good, very colorful and fits very good. You might need to do little ajustments but overall good.

Halloween is a fun time of year for children of all ages-and all species. For those of you who are pet lovers you might already know that you can find creative cat and dog Halloween costumes to make the holiday even more special for you and your furry friend. If this is something that you are interested in there are a few different options that you can look into to learn more about the topic. The first suggestion would be to search online to get an idea of what you would like to dress your pet up as. You can also go to the larger pet stores to see what they might have to offer you for information on the subject.

Once you know what type of creative costume your want for your pet you will need to decide what you will use for accessories. If you are planning on having your cat be a dog for Halloween you might want to have him wear bones made out of paper around his neck. Just something simple and cute like that would work. Why not have your pet's costume match the theme as your children's? Your little girl could be Bo Peep while your black lab could be her lost sheep. Looking for an idea that is a little more complicated? Have your son be Elliot and your rat terrier can be E.T. the alien. The most fun part about Halloween is that you get to let your imagination and creativity run wild.

If you are planning on taking your old pooch "trick-or-treating" with the family you will want to take this into consideration, does the costume work well with a collar and leash? You wouldn't want something tragic to happen to your beloved friend on such a joyous evening. In the even that you might be out past dark you should put reflective tape on the collar and leash of your pets. You could also purchase these accessories that are made for doing such activities in the dark. Also, make sure the costume fits properly. Too small of a costume could be hazardous to your pet because it might not allow your pet to move as easily. If danger where to head your way your pet might not be able to get out of the way in time due to the restrictions. Always be sure to never leave your pet unattended while in a costume. An animal can easily become tangled up while wearing a costume and this could lead to serious injuries or even death.

You can shop for your cat or dog Halloween costume at most pet stores. Online is another option for shopping. Many pet suppliers have catalogues that you can have shipped right to your door to look through. You will be able to mail in an order or even make a purchase online. Making your own costume is another possibility. You can find free patterns or patterns for a relatively low cost online or at fabric stores. Whichever method you decide to use to allow your pet to join in on the fun is up to you. Just be sure to have the perfect fit for the safety of your pet. Don't forget to give your pet a couple treats, too.
