A YA Halloween: Bella Swan

by sarahenni on October 26, 2011

Yes it’s the obvious choice, but with Breaking Dawn (Part I)’s opening weekend just a few weeks away, the timing is right for a Bella Swan costume (and I never get tired of seeing the accompanying guy outfit, ever). And the great part about dressing as Bella? She wears pretty normal stuff. In fact, the wardrobe design from the movies is—for me—one of the more positive things to come out of Twilight generally, and the movies especially. (Female gaze and all that.)

So indulge! Celebrate the silly awesomeness of Twilight and grab whatever you need to make this perfect last-minute costume work to hilarious effect. (Also I just really, really want that FORKS T-shirt.)

Easiest costume ever. Well, if you don’t count the possible need for an otherworldly counterpart. Haha. I do agree with you though about Bella’s wardrobe. I was surprised by how realistic her clothes are in the movies. It’s cold in the Pacific Northwest, and you can tell by what she wears.

I saw a “modern vampire” wig at Target the other day that was clearly supposed to be Edward’s hair. My sister and I were left cackling in the aisle.

HAHA Cackling was 100% the right response to that! And yes, totally, it was chilly! Bella needed those knit gloves! :)

BAHAHAHA OMG THE RING. I’m laughing so hard I’m crying.

And then immediately choked when I saw the price.

I KNOW RIGHT. And that isn’t even the “official Bella Swan engagement ring (TM)” that costs like a bazillion bucks. :/
