Sexy Halloween Costumes You Can Make Yourself

Halloween isn't just for kids anymore! These sexy Halloween costume ideas can help you show the world how sexy you are, and can be re-worn at future Halloween parties. Chances are, most of the items you need are already in your closet.

Sexy Pirate Costumes

A sexy pirate Halloween costume for ladies would be fairly easy to put together. The main trick is to show a lot of skin. Try putting together some fishnet hose with a slightly frayed miniskirt and a halter top. If you have old clothes you no longer wear, you can cut them up to create this Halloween costume. Add some high-heeled shoes and a pirate hat and you're in business.

If you're a man, why not model your sexy pirate Halloween costume after Jack Sparrow from Pirates of the Caribbean? Take an ordinary linen shirt with a large black vest, bell-bottom black pants and black boots. Put a big belt with a big buckle over this, and tie a long white sash over that. Preferably, everything should be a little bit sooty. Then come up with some novelty hair. This can be inexpensively bought at most costume stores or at Wal-Mart. Be sure to scare up a big pirate hat while you're at the store. Tuck some of the hair under the hat, and use glue or tape to adhere the beard to your chin. Make sure that the adhesives you use are safe for use on skin. If you like, you can put some beads on your beard for your sexy pirate costume, but be sure to do this before you tape or glue it on.

Sexy Cop Costumes
