Cooler weather and crisp leaves can only mean one thing: Halloween is on its way! \u00a0A little bit of creativity and some uncommon goods can go a long way in crafting a creative costume – here are a few ideas for your best Halloween yet.<\/p>\n

You’ve probably packed up the grill for the year, but keep a Travel Chef BBQ Set<\/a> handy for your Chef <\/strong>costume. \u00a0Add\u00a0Salts of the World<\/a> and our Mobile Foodie Survival Kit<\/a> to your apron pockets to channel Bobby Flay <\/strong> and kick it up a notch.<\/p>\n

Here in New York, we often encounter tourists. \u00a0Embrace your out of town identity in the Big Apple and put our great \u00a0travel products<\/a> to use even when not on the road for a tourist <\/strong>costume: wrap yourself in a Destination Beach Towel<\/a>, frequently reference a Crumpled City Map<\/a>, and attach as many Luggage Tags<\/a> as you can to your fanny pack or rolling suitcase. Picking up an “I heart (insert city)” shirt doesn’t hurt, either!

If the forecast on October 31 calls for rain, stage an all-weather pirates<\/a> vs. ninjas<\/a><\/strong> scene for a fun group or couple costume using our full-size umbrellas. \u00a0Pirates can pair our umbrella with boots, a sailor-inspired blazer, and an eyepatch; ninjas – complete an all-black outfit with a stealthy black scarf wrapped around your head.<\/p>\n

If your idea of trick-or-treating involves simultaneously listening to your favorite tunes, we’ve got you covered. \u00a0Pair our\u00a0Crocheted Headphones<\/a> with a red dress to channel\u00a0Hello Kitty<\/strong> or scare others away as an unlucky\u00a0black cat<\/strong> with our Black Cat Headphones<\/a>.<\/p>\n

UncommonGoods embraces our inner geek and we think you should too: show that you’re a proud nerd<\/strong> with anatomically correct Sole Sox<\/a>, Geek Watch<\/a>, and Chromosome Earrings<\/a>. \u00a0Add on your own glasses and suspenders to complete the costume.<\/p>\n

Do you only love Halloween because it means one less holiday stands between you and Christmas? \u00a0If so, remind your friends that Santa Clause is coming to town with our Emergency Clown Nose<\/a> and a couple of antlers from the Buck Stacking Game<\/a> to channel\u00a0Rudolph<\/strong>, everyone’s favorite reindeer.<\/p>\n
