How to Make Various Britney Spears Halloween Costumes

Jennifer Eblin
Everyone likes to poke fun at Britney Spears and if you look at costume ideas making the rounds on the internet, you're bound to find dozens of sites instructing you on how to take her bald look to the streets. We're going to skip right over that one and instead give you several different Britney Spears costume ideas to wear this Halloween.

First is the "Hit me Baby One More Time" look. Don a plaid miniskirt with a white button up shirt tied at the waist. Then all you need is a blond wig, but of course you have to have the pigtails too. Look for furry hair ties that you can use to keep your pigtails in place.

Or take the post-Kevin look to the streets for Halloween. Pick the shortest skirt you can find and pair it with a white tee-shirt. Write something on the front in a black magic marker. Good choices include "The Ex-Mrs. Federline", "Leave Me Alone" or even "I'm an Aunt". Finish off your outfit with a pair of fishnet stockings and stiletto heels.

This Halloween costume can easily be modified to create an older Britney look. Remember when Brit prided herself on staying a virgin until marriage? Wear a shirt that boldly proclaims "I'm Still a Virgin" with a short denim skirt and a pair of Ugg (or imitation Ugg) boots.

You can also channel Britney's look from one of her many music videos by recycling an old Halloween costume. Have you ever gone as a waitress? Dye the costume bright pink and shorten the skirt. Add a waitress pad and a pair of cat's eye glasses to go as Britney from the Drive Me Crazy video.

Maybe you or someone you know once worked as a flight attendant and the outfit's still tucked away somewhere. Bring it out, add fishnets, shorten the skirt and hit the streets as Britney in the Toxic video. Then again you can always wear a gypsy skirt with a lime green bra and drape a stuffed snake around your shoulders. If anyone asks, you're playing Britney on the VMAs back when she was good.

No matter what Britney Spears costume you choose, you have to have the attitude down pat. Britney in the early years loved God and wanted to remain pure until marriage. Pick a costume from that time period and make sure you tell everyone how happy you are and how much you love God and your family.

For an older Britney costume, keep a pack of Marlboro Lights with you wherever you go and keep one in your mouth if at all possible. Glare at anyone with a camera and flip them the bird if they try to take your picture.

If all else fails, grab a jogging suit, a bald wig and carry an umbrella with you. No one will doubt your Britney costume then.
