Hot for Halloween: Bad Tattoo Costumes

10/26/2009

Lydia costume

Are you stumped with what to wear for Halloween? Have you or your pet always secretly wanted a tattoo but never had the nerve to get one? Without the aid of needles or ink, both you and your pet can now experience the joy of body modification (mutt-ification?) without stepping into a tattoo parlor, and enjoy shocking friends, family and co-workers into thinking that you indeed have had a hibiscus flower, Grizzly Bear and parrot tattooed in odd places upon your torso.

Now more than just a cliché, tacky tramp stamps and badly done tattoos are of the hottest Halloween costumes this season, here are some faves for both you and your pet!

Lydia the Tattooed Lady: This costume looks like someone let loose on with a paint-by-numbers kit whilst wearing a blindfold ... but at $39.99, what else would you expect?

Dog Tattoo Costume

Bad Tattoo Dog Costume: Now your little Boo-boo Bear can feel all hardcore gangsta or finally feel like he belongs in a rock band.

Wild Thingz Pet Tattoos

Wild Thingz Pet Tattoos: Apply a fun temporary and SAFE tattoo onto any pet you choose ... tho' I am not sure about how your cat would feel about this concept.

Psycho Slip-on Tattoo Sleeves: My other half always admires other guys that have bona fide sleeve tattoos, but I'm fairly certain that upon entering into his "sunset years," he may not feel like it was such a bright idea in hindsight. That said, these just might satisfy his need to funkify his forearms.


My personal mission is to bring you a daily dose of "creature culture" with the goal to inspire, connect, educate and entertain. More Janet >
