Dressing a toddle for Halloween is always great fun. Whether it's just for the fun of celebrating the holiday, or you're attending or hosting a party, including the little ones is darling.
Picking a costume for a toddler though isn't always easy. In my world, that little one who is now able to walk, even run, needs a costume to move with. Baby animals make some of the best in my opinion.
Darling little ones as darling little ones is just plain adorable. Nearly every toddler has those special stuffed animals that are part of their every day lives. The teddy bear they can't sleep without, the plush monkey that shares play time, even the over-sized stuffed lion that sits in the corner of their bedroom all are part of a toddler's world.
Choosing a baby animal costume that matches one of their own favorite plush animals is a great fit. Toddlers are aware of the match themselves and will delight in being that favorite toy.
Besides my own children, I have multiple grandchildren that toddle into Halloween all costumed out. By far, the cutest ones have been those baby animals. I afraid the memories live much longer with the adults, but that's what makes Halloween with a toddler so much fun.

Creating a Zombie Costume for Women
Looking for costume ideas for this Halloween? How about a Zombie? That is a fun and wild costume for any event, whether a Halloween party or any kind of occasion that needs a costume.
We are preparing for the Zombie invasion, which we know could happen at any time. In fact, Halloween party themes of the UnDead are popular these days. Maybe we should take a lesson from that and get prepared.
Zombie costumes are probably the easiest scary costume to do yourself. It's all about looking like you have been dead for many years. Now you have come back to life as the walking dead. So your look is that of moldy hair, white face and decaying clothing.
Make sure to add in a little blood on your dress or outfit to effect the violent end that you had. That creates your need to return to the world that took your life. Of course you have the fun of going after the living!
Take advantage of the fun by handing out signs that say: Zombies want brains, so you're safe. Just a little added silliness to promote your own fun. By the way, that particular little trick won me a Best Costume Award.
So get ready for some fun this Halloween and decorate yourself as one of the Walking Dead. You could come home from a party with an award yourself.

Baby Monsters for Halloween Babies
Don't you just love Halloween babies? They look so adorable in their costumes. And how about baby monsters for them? That sounds like the cutest of both worlds to me.
I found some of the cutest baby monster costumes for those little ones. All the fun kinds of costumes that are just perfect for little Halloween babies.
Of course, every baby turns out be a "monster" at some time or another. Just when Mommy wants to take a bubble bath, the little monster comes out! So you have to have t-shirts or onsies for those times when baby is being Mommy's Little Monster.
My granddaughter gets that title regularly. It's used affectionately, but sometimes, it's meant. So for her, Mommy's Little Monster t-shirt is just perfect.
Hm, wonder if my daughter is going to dress her little one as a baby monster this Halloween? Must remember to ask her.
In the meantime, Happy Halloween to all!

Fun and Funny Dog Halloween Costumes
For most dog lovers, dressing them up for Halloween is just part of the activity of the holiday. We consider our dogs to be part of the family, so as long as the rest of the family is getting into the act, why not include the dog?
That's what I think, anyway. My big beautiful Great Dane, who only recently passed away, used to enjoy all the attention of being dressed for Halloween. I would keep his costume pretty simple and he would keep it on. Then all the ooos and ahhs he would get would soon be followed with some much deserved petting and scratches behind his ears. That made it all worthwhile for him.
This year, I have 2 medium-sized and one tiny little pup to dress so I'm on the look out for those adorable costumes. And I found some great ones. At My Favorite Dog Costumes for Halloween, they are listed. Well, not every one, but the top of the list.
There are plenty of other great dog costumes out there, but these are the ones that work well for nearly every dog. That's what I like about it. And remember to be safe with your little or big canine companion and keep an eye on them this Halloween.

Couples Halloween Costume Ideas
Coming up with great Halloween costume ideas is always a bit tricky, but for couples it's even trickier! You have to decide whether you both want to go as the same character or matching in costume, go as two halves to a costume idea, or dress as complementing characters.

Little Girls and Princess Costumes
We all know little girls and princesses just seem to go together. Didn't we all want to be princesses when we were young? Well, OK, some of us still want to be princesses, but that's a different story.
Halloween is not too far off and we need to be considering what our little girls will dress as this year. I learned to plan ahead when I ordered a darling costume one year, and it turned out to be a shabby mess. If I had had the time, I would have returned it immediately and ordered something different.
Instead, I had to fix up that costume with my sewing skills and almost started from scratch. So this year, I am looking early. I want my little to be the cutest princess she can be. I did find some really cute and well-rated princess costumes that I'm considering.
If your little girl also wants to be a princess, you may find just the right costume for her at Princess Costumes for Girls. When I finally do decide on which costume, I'll be sure to let you know!

Time to Start Thinking Halloween Costumes with Vintage Dresses
Fine, we have the July 4th holiday behind us. The start of school will be coming quickly and following fast behind is Halloween. It's really the next great holiday we get to celebrate. You may think it's a little early for this particular holiday, but I enjoy working towards the next holiday early.
It's simple things, like starting to think of what costume I will wear this year. I like to take notes about good possibilities, then later I can narrow down my list. Right now, vintage dresses are big on my list. Turning myself into a movie star from the 1940's or 1950's would be a glamor way to go.
Even just a fun retro look, whether I look like a famous person or not, is high on my list, too. All the right factors need to come together to make this look great. The vintage dress starts it all off. Then the addition of the right wig or hat, the shoes, the handbag, even the makeup needs to work to create the total effect.
But the vintage look isn't just for Halloween. Think about a fun masked party you might have to close summer. Vintage dresses are usually cooler, with short sleeves, and make for a great way to show up for just about any kind of party.
