Santa Claus Is Coming to Town We're not saying that we'd knock anyone off a roof and sign a Clause to get it, but being Santa seems like a pretty amazing job! You get to live in a secret, magical country for 364 days of the year, building and testing the most incredible toys ever seen, and then on the 365th day you get to deliver them to delighted boys and girls around the world. Most of us will never get to experience something so fantastic, but when you have a suit like Santa's, you can feel like him any time of the year.

Weihenstephaner Hefaweissbier!? Andechser Doppelbock Dunkel? Reinheitsgebot!We’re not just shouting scary-looking German words at you, fear not! With the approaching fall season, it is all about the German culture and the above frightening-sounding phrases are, in fact, some of the most delightful beers that may grace the tables at the festivities that can only be known as Oktoberfest! While beer might be a pretty profound part of the entertainment, there is a ton more to get out of it, once you’ve gotten fully involved. (Of course, there is no denying that beer can sometimes help that process along!)But, if you’re looking to look the part and get into the spirit of the season, you can much more easily do so with this charming Brown Oktoberfest Hat. The light brown felt hat is molded to keep it shape no matter what sort of activities you might find yourself in and has decorative feathers and cords that captivate much of the culture that you’ll see. It will either make for the perfect final accessory to your German-themed costume, add authenticity to your lederhosen, or could stand as its own singular entry to your dressing up for the occasion! And, if necessary, you can even put your name and address into the inner lip to make sure that you will remember where you live after the festivities. (Trust us… it happens!)

A Holiday People are Dying to CelebrateDeath can be a difficult topic, but it doesn't have to always be sad. People living in Mexico understand this, and they host a three-day celebration every year to party and remember loved ones who've passed away. We're talking about the Day of the Dead. It may seem a little gruesome if you don't know what's going on, since people dress up like grinning skeletons and have picnics in graveyards and even sometimes wear shells to make noise as they dance around, in the hopes of waking up their deceased loved ones. But actually, it's a celebration full of love and joy as they remember loved ones who have passed away. They actually make an effort to include the spirits of these family and friends, by leaving out tasty treats on personal altars. They're even really super considerate to people who might travel from the spirit world back to the land of the living for a visit, leaving out blankets so that they can rest after the long journey.Product DetailsParty to wake the dead with this Women's Day of the Dead Catsuit Costume! The black fitted jumpsuit is made of 100 percent polyester and has a zipper closure on the back for easy wear. There are bone outline patterns running up and down the arms and legs, along with an intricate skeleton graphic on the front that features lovely pink and yellow flowers.

Maybe you could make your own!Drop-Dead GorgeousDeath doesn't have to be dreary, and neither do you, thanks to your Day of the Dead Catsuit Costume! Now you'll be ready to join the other partygoers and have fun honoring all the people you've loved and lost. And who knows? Maybe they'll join in too...!
The Most Wonderful Time of the YearBusy, busy, busy - that's what Santa's helpers are during the Christmas season. The to-do list gets pretty long!

They love all the festive bustle, and their work outfits put them in a holly jolly mood! Product DetailsShow your holiday spirit by wearing an exclusive Elf Kid's Jumpsuit Costume!

The soft green top is embellished with a red jester-style collar trimmed with white pom-poms, and three printed felt "buttons" that look like peppermint candies.

The hood is pointed like an elf hat!Santa Needs You Jolly old St. Nicholas is looking for people who love Christmas as much as he does! He wants to spread the fun of holiday traditions shared with families and friends, and he thinks you look like a great candidate.

THE PATH TO ETERNAL LIFEHave you ever watched the end of the year tick closer and started to think rather troubling thoughts about the end of days? Sure, we all would like to stumble upon the Fountain of Youth or discover in a completely casual way that we're actually one of the Immortals from Christopher Lambert, Adrian Paul, and Sean Connery's fame. Perhaps we've even considered the path of the night and looking for a vampire to turn us. (Of course, then you risk running into one of the Edward types!)So, there are always risks. Turns out that there is one path that is really pretty reliable. It doesn't even involve a particularly traumatic curse! Obviously, there is a curse. This is eternal life. But it's not a really awful one. It doesn't involve an unlife of sparkling or constant sword fights every time you have a headache. We're talking the mystical path of the living toy! How fun would it be to go the rounds of the playroom the rest of your days? DESIGN & DETAILSBegin your delightfully cursed days by gearing up in this Toy Soldier costume. Our in-house (immortal) necromancers have worked tirelessly to imbue this hat, jacket, and trouser combination to give you the complete, Made By Us look. The jacket is an ornate coat that has a Hook and Loop fastener lined front and several decorative buttons, a pair of crossed white straps, and gold epaulets for a truly royal soldier look. The pants are a blue poly blend with red and gold stripes down the outseam and the hat is a tall black vinyl with gold cord trim to accent and finish the look. A WAR OF PUPPETSSure, becoming an eternal Toy Soldier might sound like a pretty risky enchantment. But, really, Pinnochio accomplished way more as a virtually invulnerable puppet than he ever did as a real boy. Try a night in magical clothes and see how great it fits!
Your kiddo probably loves to feel like a grown up. Even if he still believes in Santa, this Toddler Deluxe Santa Costume is great for the Christmas season. Or for the school play!

That seems like especially good news for mom, who can ask for help baking cookies, wrapping presents, and all sorts of other pre-Christmas-festivity activities! Be sure to prepare for all sorts of antics, though: if he starts threatening to put you on the naughty list for being conservative with cookie dough, just ask him where his pot-belly is! He can stick his tummy out as far as he'd like, but at the end of the day, he's not gonna pull the Naughty and Nice List out of that stocking cap.Everything about this exclusive velvet getup is classic--from the faux fur trim to the soft cap to the big black belt. Just add a white beard (he’s probably a few years short of growing one this thick and curly...and white) and a bag full of toys. Then feel free to remind him that if he’s old enough to be Santa, he’s probably old enough to start cleaning his room. And just like that, everyone's a winner this Christmas!

Monument MeetupWant to know a little known American secret? After the summer rush is over and all the kids go back to school, the national monuments all meet up in Washington D.C. to catch up. It's a good time, despite being a little hectic. Usually, they just meet up at the Washington Memorial reflecting pool just to keep things simple. Most of the other memorial monuments are nice and close. Just imagine how hard it is for all the monuments to travel. The four presidents on Mount Rushmore all carpool, of course. Lincoln doesn't mind getting up and stretching, he checks out his neighborhood before meeting up with Martin Luther King to compare nates.

Don't worry about the physics of that idea, this idea is all about magic, after all. This hat might not be filled with rainbows or sneezing dust or gold, but it is sure to add a magic topper to your Saint Patrick's Day ensemble!Product DetailsThis soft shamrock hat is a whole lot of fun with a cartoonish silhouette.

Can't Catch Me (I Hope) What would you do if you mixed up a bowl full of sweetly spicy batter, made a cutout cookie, put it in the oven, and removed it to discover that it was now walking and talking? We'd like to say that we'd be awed that we had somehow created a kind of life, but honestly, it's a cookie. The fact that it can interact is secondary to the fact that it's going to taste delicious. All we're saying is that we understand all the people and animals in the Gingerbread Man fairy tale.

Just make sure you have a trustworthy friend to watch your back so that no one tries to find out for themselves whether that icing is real.
Wake the DeadYou've heard the phrase, "waking up the dead," right? Normally it's the kind of thing that old folks say about parties that are too loud.

After all, the dead have been waiting all year for the holiday, so you'd better be in the celebration spirit, because you owe the deceased nothing less.Of course, when the Day of the Dead holiday rolls around every year, it takes more than some spooky costumes to muster up the souls of the dead. There also needs to be their favorite foods, music, activities, and anything else they liked about being alive. Which totally makes sense, because what ghost is going to go through the trouble of returning to the land of the living for a party they will just be bored at? We owe them a good time for all of that effort, and all of the creepily styled decorations, skeletons, and skull-shaped candies around the festival will make help them feel right at home!

Maybe it's the fact that the jockeys wear uniforms that almost look as if they could pass for a dinner party ensemble. Maybe it's also because we don't really know how it works, so we assume that it's high-class. Whatever the case, you're sure to wow with your realistic costume!
Take a Load Off, ManIf anyone deserves a vacation, it’s Santa. For 364 days of the year, he’s planning his worldwide delivery route, checking a list of a few billion names for good and bad behavior, and supervising the production of enough presents to match the list. Then on Christmas Eve, he puts all that hard work to, well, work.We assume that even if Santa took a break somewhere warm and away from it all, he’d still manage to get some work done. He’s just the most dedicated employee, CEO, and magic-man that the world knows. However, we think we may have found a way to get him to relax a bit, even if it’s just for one glorious, sunshine-filled day.Product DetailsSanta will be ready to enjoy some much-needed self-care and get a couple of names added (or scratched) from his list with this Dread Santa Plush Hat! This soft, velvet stocking cap is Santa’s favorite red and trimmed with faux fur. With the added feature of fluffy white dreads, Santa is ready to relax into a low maintenance lifestyle (even if it is temporary). So, whether Santa is lying out on the beach, sipping an icy drink, feeling nothing but good vibes, or rushing back to his workshop after a quick vacay, he’ll be looking and feeling his best!

Mayflower MadnessWe've been to the Renaissance Fair. We've seen the guys in kilts, the ladies in bustles. It's good. It's fine. We've also been to Civil War reenactments. Those can be nice too. But nothing can beat going to Colonial Times. You enter the park by walking onto the Mayflower. You spend the next few hours rocking back and forth in the belly of the ship while arguing about freedom of religion. After that, they let you into the main part of the Colonial Times... Jamestown. That's where you can take part in building houses by hand, arguing some more about morality, and at the end of the day, you get to eat a huge feast! The muddy environment and strict moral regulation might make people hesitate before they buy tickets but there's nothing like toasting with pewter mugs of mead while wearing conservative pilgrim costumes. Want that Colonial Times feel without all the travel and the badly-rated Mayflower introduction? This Pilgrim costume will give you a taste!Costume Details & DesignThis Made by Us costume looks like it's been pulled straight out of the history books. The jacket buttons up the front and is accented at the waist with a belt that secures at the back with a hook and loop strip. Cropped, tapered pants are layered underneath the jacket for an instantly recognizable colonial look. This costume is topped off with a tall pilgrim hat with a memory brim that'll make you Thanksgiving ready. An Attitude of GratitudeThis Thanksgiving, remind yourself to be grateful for the modern conveniences of life. Sure, we don't get to wear buckles on our hats and noone is named Goody or Peregrine anymore but at least we can travel across the ocean without spending six queazy months sleeping in the same room as fifty of our next-door neighbors. If that's not something to be grateful for, we don't know what is!

Uncle Sam wants you...to take over his duties so he can go on vacation.You know, Uncle Sam wasn’t the first to personify the United States. No the very first was a female iteration named Columbia, who first appeared in 1738. She was often associated with Lady Liberty. Then came Brother Johnathan, sometime during the American Revolution.Then, during the War of 1812, we finally met Uncle Sam. And since then he has meant a lot of things to a lot of different people. For some, he embodies the government. Others feel he is like the spiritual brother of the United States. Sometimes he is a recruiter for the armed forces. And once a year he is a guy walking on stilts through the Fourth of July parade.This year he could be you! With this Men's Deluxe Uncle Sam Costume, you can be the next one to personify the United States. You can call your brothers, and sisters to war (but only if you need to). Or, you can ask the girl dressed as Columbia (or even Lady Liberty) to dance at the Fourth of July picnic. Then watch the fireworks together. Either way, don't do anything that would bring shame on the United States (like blowing something up with firecrackers) as you are dressed up as our favorite Uncle. Nobody needs the PR nightmare of cleaning up after Uncle Sam. Maybe just hang out with Brother Johnathan during the Independence day festivities.
Oh Say Can You SeeWhat’s more American than apple pie? Why, making crazy fashion trends mainstream, of course! Think of all of the awesome fads we’ve seen over the years: side ponytails, shoulder pads, barcode tattoos, rolling sneakers (let’s bring those back!) No one does this better than good old Uncle Sam. His blue three-piece suit is snazzy, of course, but its his famous stovepipe hat that really pulls the outfit together. It’s as though he woke up one morning and thought, “Hmm, the American flag is great on a flagpole, but what if I could BE the flagpole?” It’s that kind of innovative thinking that the US of A does so well!Product Details We want YOU…to wear this amazing hat! America’s favorite uncle sure knows how to dress the part. Show your love for the Stars and Stripes in this Giant Uncle Sam Plush Hat. Its soft velour material and size adjuster built into the hatband make this a wear-all-day kind of accessory. The purple mountains’ majesty and amber waves of grain have never seen anything like this patriotic stovepipe-style headgear!
It Came without Packages, Boxes or Bags! Everyone knows that the meaning of Christmas has to do with how much loot the guy in the red suit brings you, right? So if you sneak down to Whoville in the dead of night on Christmas Eve, steal all of their shiny presents, and dump them off of the highest mountain you can find, that should stop them from being obnoxiously chipper the next morning, right? Then wy is everyone singing so merrily without all of their gifts? Could you have been wrong about the meaning of Christmas? Product DetailsBring Christmas cheer to everyone who sees you in this officially licensed, exclusive The Grinch Jumpsuit Costume for Kids!

The included faux fur collar ties around the back of your neck. Every Who down in Whoville Liked Christmas a Lot This year, let the Whos teach you about how to be really merry during the most wonderful time of the year! Sure, trimming the tree with Christmas stuff like bingle balls and Whofoo fluff is fun (whatever Whofoo fluff is), but it's not what makes the season so happy. It's sharing the day with friends and family, and giving your dog Max an extra slice of roast beast under the table.

To everyone else in the world, the Day of the Dead sounds like a spooky holiday that you only see in ghost movies where zombies and skeletons come up from their graves to feast on the living! To Mexico and a few other cultures, however, this holiday is a festival used to celebrate their ancestors and loved ones by dressing up as skeletons, and eating different foods and drinking beverages that were the deceased's favorites. They even have wonderful parades and special candies called sugar skulls to decorate and eat just for the occasion! Of course we think the best part of the festivities are the fantastic decorative skull masks everybody wears. This one has an awesome red, yellow, and black design that's sure to complete your costume. The decoration around the eyes is actually inspired by the marigolds, a flower often used during the holiday to guide the spirits of the dead to visit the living. Who else gets to hang out with their ancestors during a celebration?

There are so many Santa Claus costumes to choose from, picking the right one can sometimes take a Christmas miracle. If you're looking for an elegant look to wear while hosting your winter festivities, our exclusive Santa Claus Sweetie Costume will get you into the holiday spirit!The problem with there being so many different Santa costumes isn't having to search through all the possibilities; poking around on Pinterest and Googling different ideas make it pretty easy to sort through all the types of Santa costumes out there. The process gets tough, though, when you come across a variety of Santa outfit you'd never even considered before. It's easy to rule out "sexy" or "extravagant" Mrs. Claus costumes when you're not throwing a sexy or extravagant Christmas party. But when you see "pro wrestler" or "ninja" Santas, you start wondering what other kinds you might stumble across, and all of your other plans and decorations get put on hold until you make up your mind! Sometimes, all you want to do is throw a fun Christmas party without any gimmicks, but you still want to dress up nicely for it.We totally get it, which is why we created this cheerful Santa Claus dress. It's a yuletide cocktail-style dress for any type of holiday get-togethers you're planning for or heading out to; it's cute, but not risqué, and traditional, but not old fashioned. Think of all the extra time you'll have to decorate and prepare for your guests, instead of deciding what to wear!
Grinchy GoodnessMaybe the Grinch had the right idea. We hate to say it, but maybe doing away with the holiday season would be the best route to take. No more spending a small fortune on presents for friends and family and no longer worrying about what dish to pass for Christmas dinner would be such a relief. Forget about having a decorated pine tree in your living room shedding needles all over, and not having to hassle with the Christmas lights would be nice too.If you're on board with the Grinch's original idea to completely cancel the holiday season, then the men's deluxe Grinch Santa costume is exactly what you need to turn the jolliest season into a manageable, enjoyable, stress-free time. We're not condoning breaking into homes and stealing presents and nabbing their Who Hash (we love Who Hash, it's one of our favorite meals, actually), but if you want to make it known you're planning on skipping all the Christmas festivities then just disguise yourself in this Grinchy get-up, and those around you will get the hint that you're not planning on standing under any mistletoe this year! Design & DetailsThis is a deluxe costume that comes with everything needed for your all-green transformation. The fur jumpsuit fastens together with a simple hook and loop fastener while the Santa suit tunic, featuring furry pom-poms and furry cuffs, fits easily over it. The included gloves are covered in the same green fur as the jumpsuit so you look green and fuzzy from head to toe. Finally, the character mask and Santa hat complete the costume. The molded plastic mask has an elastic band able to comfortably stretch around all head sizes. Holiday Party StapleAlthough you're not jazzed about Christmas, you can never turn down a reason to party. Hit up all the Christmas parties you're invited to wearing this costume.
Churning your own butter and making your own candles are becoming a lost art, but thanks to this pilgrim girl costume, colonial fashion is about to make a comeback.Sure, it may be a drastic change from today's skinny jeans and neon fabrics, but we think it has a simple elegance that will appeal to your daughter anyway.

Top it all off with the included pilgrim hat that has elastic at the back and ties under the chin so that it will stay in place all night long! Now, time to get back to tending to the oven and farm animals!
Holly and JollyYou may work at a department store where you dress as a North Pole elf, but you're kind of over the holidays. It's just a lot of work.
