Anything but a sexy Minion.

11 years ago an infamous red-head summed up what the majority of the Western world thinks about women's Halloween costumes. Specifically, that it's "the one night a year when a girl can dress like a total slut and no other girls can say anything about it". Every single October that Mean Girls quote gets a little bit more true. For girls, there is a transitional period in your teen years when your costumes switch. You go from scary witch to sexy witch, spooky cat to sexy cat, sci-fi R2-D2 to sexy R2-D2. Yup, that last one's a thing. So if, like many women out there, you're sick of thinking sexy pizza slice is your only option, and you're not a dab hand with the make up brush, there are still some totally badass femmes from the world's of film and TV that you can portray this year.
