The Youngest ColonyFolks have heard of all of the most famous colonies that were founded in the early days of settling the New World. But, there are a few that have gone down into legend. Among those, there are some tales that verge on the spooky and mysterious. Roanoke, the Lost Colony, for example. None know exactly what had happened and tales of it mysteriously vanishing from the world have sparked a ton of terrifying ghost stories, abduction tales, too! Of course, not all those stories are of the horror variety. Some of the best stories we've heard of come from the Kiddo Colony. Now, we don't know what the first Pilgrims were thinking when they came up with the idea. But, they figured that they'd see what happens if the children ran one of the communities. They elected their own Munchkin Mayor and apparently most conflicts were settled with a food fight. That's why Thanksgiving was so important to them!Design & DetailsBring the Kiddo Colony back from the mythical history when you let your tyke trot around in this Kid's Pilgrim Costume. This ensemble includes a gabardine jacket with fabric buttons and a pair of cropped pants designed to look in the style of the original colonizers. The tall hat features memory wire so it'll keep its stiff brim. Faux leather belts cinch the whole look together on both the jacket and the hat. Designed in-house by our Made by Us team, this look is sure to bring some smiles for Halloween or those fantastic Thanksgiving gatherings! A Pilgrim ParadeMake sure that you have a load of fun in any season when you bring a Pilgrim along. In fact, pair this costume up with a few more for a whole colony of the kiddos wearing pilgrim pride! Just watch out at dinner time that a good food fight won't be fixing any friction at the kid's table!

Giddy-Up! Is it just us, or do all toddlers seem to have a similar set of rules to live by? Rule #1: If Mom or Dad is enjoying a snack, half of the snack automatically belongs to them (unless it's something they find gross, like stinky cheese or a protein bar. Loopholes do exist.) Rule #2: If a joke is funny one time, it's funny 276,868 more times. Rule #3: EVERYTHING can be ridden like a horsie. The coffee table is a horse. The back of the couch is a horse. The box that your Halloween costume arrived in is a horse. Anything that moves, like Rover or an unsuspecting grandparent, is definitely a horse. Design & DetailsIf your little one is going to ride everything anyway, better dress her for success in this Equestrian Toddler Costume! The fitted black jacket and white pants are perfect for racing a spirited ottoman all the way to victory at the Kentucky Derby. A crisp white jabot fastens stylishly around her neck.

His blue three-piece suit is snazzy, of course, but its his famous stovepipe hat that really pulls the outfit together.

The purple mountains’ majesty and amber waves of grain have never seen anything like this patriotic stovepipe-style headgear!
Here's the thing about Mrs. Claus: she gets things done. Sure, Santa delivers the presents, he's the one climbing down the chimney, getting all the glory, but come on. You think he can pull all that off alone? Let us ask you this? Do you have any idea how hard it is to keep nine reindeer fed and stabled and fit 364 days a year? Let's not even get into the details on cleaning up after them. Elves help with that? Yeah right! The elves are strictly workshop elves ever since they unionized. So there goes Mrs. Claus, making sure the ship sails smoothly.And speaking of elves, do you think it's easy corralling and organizing hundreds of workers throughout the year, keeping track of schedules and assignments, ensuring proper lunch breaks and that all OSHA guidelines are met? It's a massive job. But there she is, day after day, making sure the trains run on time. Santa is why Christmas is delightful for you and I. Mrs. Claus, on the other hand, is why Christmas has always been on December 25th, never pushed back due to production delays, logistics problems, or sick or missing reindeer. You really think Santa is checking his list twice? Mrs. Claus is not only checking it, she's correcting all the grammatical errors and spelling mistakes. Mrs. Claus isn't a Mrs. at all. She's a queen. Queen Claus, making sure every Christmas is as wonderful and joyous as it should be. Put on this costume and show people what a true queen is: capable, fierce, and powerful. Queen Claus.
Not Such a Grinch after All"The Grinch is a terrible person before his heart grows three sizes!" you may argue. "He's mean! He's rude! He spies on the Whos all the time from his cold and frosty cave. He plots to steal all of their presents simply because he can't stand to see another person having fun. He gyps the Who-ville mice out of crumbs from pure spite. Why, he even takes the last can of Who-hash!" All of these things are definitely true, but we know for a fact that the Grinch couldn't have been all bad, even before his radical Christmas Day transformation. Why? Because he owned a dog! The love of a dog is proven to make even the grumpiest person more tolerable. If you saw the Grinch walking down the street by himself, you might cross by on the other side of the road, but if he had Max with him? Well, then you'd be asking the green meanie "What's this cutie's name??"Product DetailsLet your best pup be the sidekick to one of the most famous Christmas characters of all time with this exclusive How the Grinch Stole Christmas Max Dog Costume! The festive red collar has a little gold jingle bell sewn onto it to tinkle merrily while your four-legged friend is racing to return the Whos' presents. The antler that the Grinch tied to your dog's head is secured with a matching red elastic band. Maybe Christmas, Perhaps, Means a Little Bit MoreWe all know that the spirit of Christmas is more than just material things - but having an awesome costume doesn't hurt! Your pup will bring holiday cheer to everyone who sees her and she'll have a great time doing it.
What a Grinch Have you heard about the crabby green guy who lives on the mountain just north of Whoville? What's his problem, anyway? It could be his head wasn't screwed on just right. It could be, perhaps, that his shoes are too tight. But the most likely reason of all is either that his heart is shrunken or he's too cold to be nice. The windchill in that mountain cave must be brutal.Product DetailsStay warm in this exclusive, officially licensed Grinch Hat & Gloves Set for Adults while you plot to ruin Christmas! Made of a breathable, soft blend of acrylic, polyester and spandex, the green hat has knitted-in graphics, including yellow Grinch eyes and black eyebrows; The words "The Grinch" are printed on the gloves. The hat also features a fuzzy green pom-pom on top. I Must Stop Christmas from Coming Feeling grumpy about Christmas? Slip on this hat and beanie set! You may still have a case of the grumps, but at least your head and hands will be warm. That extra touch of comfort may mean the difference between staying in with a cup of hot cocoa or sledding down the mountain to pillage Whoville.
Look Like Death and Love It!We're always trying to change up our looks. Everyone goes through phases. You know how it goes. In high school, you might have plucked out most of your eyebrows for a pencil-thin look and dyed your hair jet black. Then perhaps you went into a colorful phase with red ombre hair and neon clothes that could be spotted from a mile off. Now, not all of these looks were flattering. Some of them were a little scary. But that's okay, cause scary looks are memorable. That's why we think you'll love this new look. You've changed your hair. You've changed your style. But have you ever changed your face? Try it out this next October with an eerie skull mask that'll really drop some jaws. Product DetailsThis skull mask will add a little magical color to any ensemble. Perfect for Halloween or a gorgeous take on Day of the Dead, the blue florals and dotted design is an easier way to create that sugar skull look. The latex material easily stores for many costumes to come! Looking for the perfect way to compliment this mask? Choose from the rest of our skeleton accessories to compliment this deathly look just right!
Perhaps no occupation is more important in the Bible than that of the shepherd. So many of its central figures made their living at some point by making sure sheep didn’t get lost. Abraham, who passed the most important test ever given, was a shepherd, as was his grandson Jacob. Before Moses was rebelling against the pharaoh and receiving commandments, he too ushered the sheep around. And even King David was tending to his flock before he tended to all of Israel.The preponderance of shepherds in the Bible makes sense on a couple of levels. First of all, there were simply a lot of shepherds in biblical times, so the odds were pretty strong for getting a shepherd if you just picked anyone out of the crowd at random. But of course you can’t deny the metaphorical level, that we’re all bumbling sheep under the auspices of the Good Shepherd himself. Who knows how many of us would still have our heads stuck in fences if not for occasional help from upstairs?If your child needs to play a prophet in a school or church play, or they just want to look like they had business taking care of sheep a few thousand years ago, then this costume is their best option. With these two robes and belt they would have fit right in in ancient Damascus. All they’ll need is a shepherd’s crook, which we have a selection of, and a beard if they’re really going for authenticity. Maybe better you shouldn’t wait for them to grow their own!
Fascinating FormalityThe dress code demands formality. You know you can’t walk in wearing any old outfit with any old accessories. So, you’ve picked the most elegant ensemble your closet has to offer and a posh pair of shoes. You’ve planned a manicure and requested a blowout for your hair.

With your matching yellow ensemble or complementary blue, this feather and lace fascinator is sure to shine!Occasional AccessoryPerhaps you’re heading to the races.

This statement-making accessory makes the perfect addition to any formal wear occasion and is sure to inspire if worn in place of a hat!
Testing, TestingSince he is the autocrat of his own magical nation, Santa has been able to create a system of governance in which everyone pulls their weight.

He used to just employ them as testers. They would play with the new toys and determine if they were good enough for the world yet, or if they were not. Now, though, he has made them into the most perfectly adorable little morale boosters you have ever seen! Nothing will make the other elves feel calmer than a cute little gumdrop-sized elf!Cute as a ButtonThis Girls Elf on the Shelf Infant Costume is the perfect way to be Santa’s helper this year!

Every time November 2nd comes around, the hundreds year old tradition of Dia de los Muertos, or, Day of the Dead, comes with it in Mexico. To many people who don't know much about the tradition, they see it as a Mexican Halloween or just something to dress up as skeletons for, but it is in fact much more unique than that.It's a holiday full of symbolism. It's the day when all the spirits of the people who have passed away can return to spend time with their friends and family in this world. It sounds a little morbid when you think about all the deceased people who will be hanging out, but to most people it's kind of comforting. Just imagine how many times you've heard people say how they wish they just had one more day with someone before they passed. Now you can do that once a year, even if it is more symbolic than anything. You get to paint sugar skulls, and place all the different things your loved ones enjoyed in life like food, beverages, or games and pictures!Not to mention you have the chance to dress up in fantastic, bright clothing. Just look at this day of the dead inspired dress! Your little girl will look adorable on this special day where not a single skeleton is actually scary but is in fact ready for a great time. This is an exclusive costume made by us so you won't find anything as awesome as this anywhere else. Be sure to check out the others for the rest of the family too!

One Magical Winter Once upon a time, sometime around Christmas, an extra-special snowstorm blew over the world and left sparkling white snowflakes everywhere. Some of these snowflakes whirled together and formed the cutest little snowgirl that anyone has ever seen. Better yet, something about that magical snow brought her to life! She could laugh and play with the rest of the neighborhood kids and, best of all, she never melted. Product DetailsAny day can be a winter wonderland when your child dresses up in this exclusive Snowgirl Toddler Costume! The approximately knee-length dress zips up the back and has a solid white boce and sleeves. A row of silvery pom-poms is sewn to the front of the bodice, and a crimson band circles the waist. The skirt has a beautiful pattern of intricate, silvery snowflakes. A pair of red mittens slips on over your child's hands, and a checkered scarf can be tied around her neck. The red headband topped with a mini black hat and a sprig of fabric holly adds an extra touch of whimsy. Snow Much Fun Playing outside in the snow is near and dear to most kids' hearts! It's a bummer that you can't bring snow inside, but this costume makes up for the fact that the rest of the snowballs and snowpeople have to stay outdoors. It's perfect for a school performance, a winter party, or a holiday get-together. Your child will cause so many smiles when she wears this costume that a certain jolly old elf at the North Pole is sure to take note and put her permanently on the nice list!
Jingle All The WayWhen it comes to parties, you don't do any festivities halfway. When you showed up for family Easter a couple years back you not only had a pair of bunny ears on your own head, you had ears for everyone at your family gathering, even the dog. Not that Fido really appreciated your thoughtful nature. Then there was the time when you filled your mom's car with helium balloons on Mother's Day. While she was annoyed that she had to coral fifty balloons in her garage first thing in the morning, you got a lot of joy from your slightly mischevious gesture and she got a mother's day memory that makes a great story. So of course, when it comes to Christmas celebrations, there's no way you're going to back down. People expect a lot from you when it comes to your cheer levels, so you can bet that when you show up to a celebration, you'll be there with bells on!Product DetailsThis ensemble would be right at home in the North Pole. The dress is made of a soft green fabric with red bric-a-brac down the front, small ruffles at the shoulders, and a ragged hemline as is the fashion at Santa's workshop. You're sure to love the included candy-striped leggings and the cute holly clip that can be used anywhere on your sweet and sassy look.You got the SpiritWith a holiday spirit like yours, you might not even be required to bring anything for the Chirstmas smorgasbord. After all, you're filling everyone with good cheer and we think that's tastier than a sweet potato mash any day. But before you go making any final decisions on our behalf we'd double check with aunt Mildred, we don't want to get on her naughty list. Whether you bring a dish to pass or not, you're sure to retain your "most festive" title with this elf costume. Hey, maybe Santa will catch wind and hire you as his PR elf. There's no way you're going to be on toy making duty in those heels!

Bunny GiftsSome people have argued about the Easter Bunny's methods of gift-giving before. They've complained that the fact that you have to work to find your eggs and then in the morning you have to hunt around for your baskets. They think it's just some sort of unnecessary hassle that just isn't worth going through the trouble for.We, however, are on team Easter Bunny all the way! We've got two arguments for these silly people. First of all, we will go through a TON more than a little searching around in order to get a hold of some candy (especially chocolate).Second of all, look at Halloween and Christmas. We're not knocking either holiday, especially with our favorite holiday being Halloween (Sorry Easter, you're not quite at the top.). Santa makes you be good all year and on Halloween you have to go door to door! You keep doing you, Easter Bunny. We've got your back.Design & DetailsCelebrate Easter the right way with this Easter Bunny Mascot Costume--it's great for Easter egg hunts or mall appearances. This costume comes complete with the fluffy, faux fur bodysuit, the deluxe mascot head, as well as matching fur gloves, and complete foot covers. Just be careful of the kids who like to pull ears and tails!(PLEASE NOTE: the costume is white and not gray as pictured.) Do not attempt to drive while wearing the head; it does obstruct vision. (So it'd probably be a good idea to really watch your step as you go down or upstairs as well!) You're ready to hop down the bunny trail in this bunny costume!
Fresh Baked and FabulousA baby is a lot like a cookie that's warm from the oven. Not in the literal, edible sense, of course, but both babies and baked goods are nearly irresistible and bring smiles to everyone's faces. They're the perfect pick-me-up, and they both usually smell fabulous. They're so delightful that they always draw a crowd, especially when they're working together! In fact, if you combined the two, they would be an unstoppable force. Product DetailsNo bakery treat is cuter than your little one when he or she is wearing this exclusive Gingerbread Cookie Costume for Infants! The unisex jumpsuit zips up the back and is made of soft, cinnamon-brown velour fabric. Wide white rickrack "frosting" circles the neckline, wrists, waistline, and ankles. A row of three peppermint-printed foam discs is attached to the torso's center front. The gloves and booties are easy to slip on over your child's hands and feet. The soft-sculpted hood secures under the chin and is decorated with appliqued and embroidered facial features. Sugar Rush Is your child old enough to experience the awesomeness of frosted cookies? She'll love this costume! Does he not have enough teeth yet to fully appreciate the zip and zest of a gingerbread man? This costume will show him everything he has to look forward to one day! For now, though, you can eat all of the cookies. Think of it as a kind of payment for all the late-night snacking that your little one has been demanding since birth.
THE FANCIEST SKELETONWhen that veil thins between the world of the living and the world of the dead in the hereafter, things can get pretty spooky! Throwing out some sweets and offering up a sugar skull or two can call all sorts of undead family members to come and pay a visit. But, as scary as your skeletal relations might seem, they're just there out of love. They're actually probably more spooked of you than the other way around! That's why, if you're going to deal with the dead, it is best to make things as smooth and easy going for them as possible. If they see that you're just a little bit macabre, they're gonna calm right down. That said, you don't want to just let them show you up, either! Show off how fancy and creative you can be! Some face paint, roses, and a little flair can go far. While you're at it, we hear that you've got a kiddo who is ready to earn some Día de Muertos awards, too! DESIGN & DETAILSHelp your child enjoy the true flair and fun of Día de Muertos with this Day of the Dead outfit. This celebratory look is Made By Us and starts with a black jersey top that features a turtleneck collar, long sleeves, and skeletal print along the chest and arms. Next is the classic, wide-brimmed hat with a satin hatband. Of course, you know what we're building up to. The true wonder of this outfit is the poncho. This is an easy-to-wear overgarment that is digitally printed with a sugar skull, grayscale colors, and more fringe than your kiddo can shake. FUN SIDE OF THE AFTERLIFEShow your child (and the spirits of the beyond) a great time this autumn season with a festive Day of the Dead look that will practically last an eternity!
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.
Good old Mrs. Claus. She puts up with living in the middle of nowhere, a husband who works from home 364 days a year, and all the racket that elves must make while they’re building billions of toys. Do you know the saying “Behind every great man is an even greater woman?” Well, if Santa can travel at the speed of light and knows what hundreds of millions of people are doing at any given time, we’d shudder to think of what kinds of amazing super powers his better half has!Our Deluxe Mrs. Claus Wig is a high quality synthetic hairdo that’ll make everyone as pleased as punch to have you around. Match this piece up with some granny glasses and a comfy red dress and you’ll have the Christmas costume market cornered!
When you think about the Statue of Liberty have you ever thought how wonderful it must have been to see for someone who'd been at sea on an overcrowded ship for weeks? Her torch would stand tall, through most of the 1800's it would glow in the fog and the night, acting as an actual torch. The Statue not only stands for liberty but for knowledge and a literal safe harbor. Does your child feel the urge to stand up for what's right? Does she often think about those huddled masses, pulling into the New York Harbor of early America? Does she get patriotic to the max from every national holiday from the 4th of July to Veteran's Day? This beautiful Lady Liberty ensemble is perfect for your little politician or historian. In this costume, she'll be instantly recognizable as the statue that has stood for freedom and knowledge since 1882. The costume comes with a lightweight torch, though she will be in no way obligated to keep the torch in the air for longer than it takes to snap some great photos. She'll love her new look as she proudly wears the crown and the graceful dress, you'll just have to be sure she's not ushering any poor, tired masses back your house after her costumed event. Whether she's in a school play, in a 4th of July parade, or has patriotic plans for Halloween trick-or-treating, Lady Liberty is sure to add a special glow to any event.
You know what always proves a real party hit? A big, cheerful, colorful pinata, chock full o’ sweet treats. Just the presence of a pinata can turn a small get-together into a full-on bash! It whacks the doldrums right out the door!Everyone knows that the pinata is often the star of the party, but a real pinata also has its drawbacks: it’s flimsy, it’s stuffed full of not-that-great-for-you candy, and once it’s broken open, that’s just it--no more pinata fun for the night. Sad. That’s why we think this Pinata Costume Dress is bound to make you absolutely giddy; imagine--all the fun of your favorite party favor, but able to last the whole party through (at least until you decide to go home and crawl under the covers). You can even change up the pinata rules and bake up some mini muffins or your own tiny tasty treats to pass out to anyone who hugs you (that’s better than being swung at with a baseball bat, trust us). Folks will rejoice over your clever take on a pinata’s sweet rewards!As if that weren’t enough joy for you, you also get to dress in fun, colorful fringe! As you flaunt the layers of this festive frock and its matching boot toppers, you’ll immediately draw a crowd wherever you hang. A ribboned horn headband and a matching ribbon “tail” complete this costume and crown you sweet princess of the pinatas! Something tells us that the paper and cardboard kind will never seem quite as fun after you’ve lived the lovely life of a party pinata!
Listen, just because you’re Lady Liberty doesn’t mean you can’t be a multi-dimensional being. Sure, you love Liberty…you stand for Liberty…heck, you’ve built your whole entire identity around Liberty…but maybe it’s time you broke out of that box and explored what else might make you happy, you know? Like, maybe you’re Lady Liberty AND A Plucky Independent Entrepreneur. Or, you could be Lady Liberty Who Also Really Digs Reality TV Don’t @ Me! Or you could go even further and be Lady Liberty, Private Investigator (think of the possibilities - a YouTube channel, a book series, maybe even your own hour-long dramatic series on Fox!)!

Sometimes Santa needs just a little more help during the busy season. We're not even talking about the elves. They've got their own jobs that they specialize in such as building the toys, packaging the toys, or working with delivery logistics for the big night. Sometimes the big guy needs a little more help with the whole spreading of Christmas cheer. Those specialists have to focus on, hearing what every kid wants for Christmas, eating all the cookies left for him, and the actual delivery of all those gifts! When he gets real desperate, there isn't a height or belly girth requirement anywhere. You just have to be a jovial person who loves Christmas. Sound like your little elf might be up for the job? All they'll need is their own beard and moustache. We're not sure about your mini Santa, but we still can't grow a beard that thick as grown men, so this beard and moustache is an excellent replacement.
Sneaky SentimentsHow the Grinch Stole Christmas clearly illustrates that the importance of the holiday does not lay solely in the gifts or lavish meals. And while we’re sure your kids take the lesson to heart, it won’t stop them from anxiously waiting to see what Santa’s got just for them.

Charity-ing is CaringNow that the Grinch’s heart has grown three sizes in one day, you find that you are very busy!

Icing on the CakeYou were already having a pretty great birthday. You got well-wishes from coworkers and calls from family. Your niece sang you an adorable song that your sister texted you at lunch. You had plans to have a couple of drinks after work. And then your friend showed up wearing something totally embarrassing that was in your honor. They didn't have to.

But to be honest, seeing them grinning away in those goofy goggles was the icing on the cake that was a really great day!Product DetailsThese Happy Birthday glasses are made with solid plastic so they can be brought out whenever it's someone's special day.

Who Roast Beast? Yuck. Every Who down in Whoville likes Christmas a lot, but you are definitely not a fan. There's nothing about it that you like! Merriment and tidings of good cheer?

The same goes if your heart has grown three sizes and you finally want to experience the holiday's magic with newfound friends. School performances and Christmas parties will be even more fun when you're dressed as everyone's favorite green grump. The one thing it's actually not good for is sneaking down a chimney to steal people's presents and dump them off a high mountain, so please avoid that particular activity.
Hip hop, hippity hop hopSome animals have all the fun. Monkeys get to swing through the jungle all day. Dolphins get to be majestic, and beautiful as they jump out of the water. And pandas get to be lazy, and fed up to 40 pounds of bamboo each day.But rabbits. They seem to be the most fun. And they are definitely the coolest animals out there, with their hip hop skills. And they have the oldest claim to Hip Hop. They have an older claim then 2-Pac, or Run DMC. They have been in the Hip Hop game since they were babes. Real bunnies can spit a beat better than Eminem (and we don’t just say that because his nickname was Rabbit in 8 Mile).Now you can be the master of Hip Hop with this Adult White Bunny Costume. You will be the coolest animal in the wild when you start spitting insane new beats. The pandas won't know what to do with your skills as a beat master. And dolphins might have a pretty high intelligence, but they can't speak...so, they are less cool than you the rapping bunny. The monkeys will probably see you as an awesome new leader to follow. And Eminem will wish he had the ability to spit such mad rhymes like you do when you put on this white jumpsuit. *Warning: mittens might cause unintended mic drops. (Just pretend it was on purpose.)*
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!
IN SEARCH OF OFF-SEASON WORKThe spirit of the United States is always called on around the 4th of July. He's occasionally invoked on some of the other holidays, too... Memorial Day. Once, he gave a pretty impressive speech on Flag Day, though he got somewhat drowned out by the dancers flipping the flags all throughout the street. Still, if it isn't gearing up for the summer months, poor Uncle Sam doesn't often get much time out in the sun. That's why we're trying to help him find other festivities to enjoy.Now, we think he'd make a great stand-in for Christmas. He's already proven that he makes red look pretty great, so Uncle Santa could be a perfect holiday spirit! Though, his aggressive 'We Want You' attitude might confuse the reindeer. How about Easter? We're often all about bright and shining colors to celebrate the spring. Stripes are also totally in with all the egg decorations. Stars... maybe not so much. Though, there is one season where all spirits belong! DESIGN & DETAILSMake your Halloween a truly inspiring time with a seasons costume in this exclusive Uncle Sam Costume. Our team of Star Specialists joined up with our experts in Stripe Decor for a game of anti-gravity paintball and were shocked that they'd never worked on a design together. They fixed that in a big way with this navy blue jacket, white vest, gleaming red and white striped pants, and the iconic star-banded top hat of everyone's favorite Uncle. Finish off your transformation into the spirit of America with the red bow tie and claim any season for the U.S.A.! WHAT ARE YOUR POWERS?Once you've slipped into your new role as Uncle Sam and realized that you can claim any season to show off your patriotic pride, the real question is wondering what mysterious powers that the spirit of the United States possesses. Conjure fireworks and starbursts from your hands? Either way, you'll look amazing while you figure it out!

Cupid seems like he might have a hard time getting started in today’s rightfully consent-focused dating landscape. Is he tricking unwilling parters into getting together, or is Cupid just an instrument of fate, matching up soulmates? Does Cupid save his favorites for himself? I’m sure Twitter would have something to say about it, but rest easy: everybody’s just trying to have a good time at the office Valentine’s day party.Let’s face it: this getup isn’t subtle. It’s for the bold and beautiful. Who can resist a chubby-cheeked angel? This costume includes red feather wings, a soft red bow with a pink ribbon bowstring, and a Hook and Loop fastener arrow. And that’s all you need, really––for a genuine, historically-accurate Cupid, clothing is optional. Maybe an artfully draped white linen? The Valentine’s Cupid Accessory Kit is not intended for self-defense––the soft, heart-shaped tip should only impart love, not harm (any modifications you make notwithstanding).
North Pole Casual FridayBeing one of Santa's elves is probably the best job you could ever have! It's Christmas all year round as you design incredible toys, help the reindeer practice their flight patterns, and taste-test all of the incredible cookie recipes that Mrs. Claus will start baking on December 1st. But even the best job can be difficult at times, and you do have to wear a uniform to work. That's why it's important to have a super fun, snuggly outfit to curl up in on your days off!

The jumpsuit's top portion is made of a snuggly green knit material with an attached hood. A red collar tipped with golden pom-poms is attached to the neckline, while white faux fur lines the wrists, hood, and hips. The hood comes to a point like an elf's hat and is ornamented with an oversized white pom-pom. The jumpsuit's bottom portion is made of festive red, white and green-striped material that looks even more jolly than a candy cane. 'Twas the Night Before ChristmasBring the North Pole everywhere you go when you wear this cute costume! It's as fun for parties as it is for marathoning your favorite Christmas movies.
Santa's Favorite Helper There's a new face at the North Pole this year! This little one is still pretty small, but it's more than happy to help Kris Kringle prepare for the holidays. Its specialty is cookie tasting, chewing on wrapping paper, and giggling whenever the older reindeer take off in flight. It's also great at keeping an eye on human children to make sure that they're on the nice list...at least, when it's not practicing rolling over. Product DetailsChristmas will be extra magical when your baby wears his or her officially licensed Elf Pets Reindeer Infant Costume! The unisex outfit includes a one-piece jumpsuit made of brown polyester velour that's as soft to the touch as a reindeer's fur. It fastens up the center back and also features snaps that run from the crotch down the inseams for easy diaper access. A white oval inset on the torso looks like a reindeer's underbelly and is embroidered with the words "Elf Pets" in fancy golden script. A white felt collar trimmed with red ribbon and hung with a glitter gold tag lets everyone know that this is no ordinary reindeer! The matching booties slide on easily, have deer-hoof-shaped anti-skid soles perfect for wobbly little crawlers and walkers, and are sewn with rib-knit cuffs. The hood slips over the head and fastens under the chin, leaving an opening for the entire face. Its top is sewn with ears, stand-up antlers, embroidered eyes, and a soft-sculpted muzzle. Reindeer GamesThe other reindeer would have to be crazy not to let this cutie participate in their fun! Your little reindeer is more likely to become the most beloved creature at the North Pole.
All through the house not a creature was stirring, except you who was scouring the internet for the perfect Santa Suit.This year your son tried out for the school play. The school play being the Night Before Christmas. And who did he get the part of? You guessed it Santa Claus. Of course he is Santa. You are proud of him for getting the part. But you know how hard it is to find a nice looking Santa Suit in a child's side.Your son has been practicing his lines since he got the role. He keeps forgetting Donner though. "Now Dasher, now Dancer, now Prancer, and Vixen. On Comet, on Cupid, on...urgh...and Blitzen." It's cute that he forgets, but you know by the time of the play he will remember all of Santa's reindeer. Now all you have to do is make sure he is properly attired.Well, look no further because here is the perfect Child's Santa Suit for that Christmas play. It comes with all the Santa necessities like a red hat with a white pompom, the classic red jacket with a faux leather black belt, and of course the white knit gloves are a must for any Santa actor. All your son will have to do is rehearse his lines some more, and try to remember which reindeer comes after Cupid, but before Blitzen. And maybe grow figure out how to grow a long white beard in time for the play (or you can just get our Child Santa Wig and Beard as well).
It's that time of year again. Turkey appreciation day! Other wise known as Thanksgiving. This is the day that Americans consume 46 million turkeys. And one lucky turkey is saved by the President of the United States. How are you going to celebrate your turkey day? Eating or pardoning?Or are you going to do something completely surprising? Are you going to shock your family when you show up dressed in this Adult Fleece Turkey Costume? They will be asking if you have lost your mind. Dressing up as the thing you are about to eat. Just remind your folks that turkeys are omnivores, meaning they eat whatever is in front of them. Especially perfectly roasted, melt in your mouth Thanksgiving Day turkey with all the fixin's.Enjoy the look of shock on the faces of your adult relatives. And the sweet smiles, and giggles of your younger family members. The kids will all want to take a ride on the turkey who showed up to participate in the festivities. They will all insist on "turkey" back rides around the house. Don't worry everybody else will warm up to the idea when they see you playing with the kids. Then eat your weight in stuffing, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, and don't forget to try a little bird. And after everyone as had a little time to let all the food settle, and your brother challenges you to a Turkey Day football scrimmage, tell him you can still beat him with one wing tied behind your back!
When you think about it, there's not much that distinguishes Santa Claus from just another Jolly Home Burglar. They've both got a red suit, a cherry nose, and a knack for finding their way past locked doors or down skinny chimneys. There's a similarly fine line between a Classic Mrs. Claus Costume and an Overly-Festive Granny Outfit. Just remember that less is sometimes more.It's like this: if you show up unnanounced at your local shopping mall to perform some of the polka music you've been writing in your spare time, people are going to associate you with polka music. It's that easy! But if you want to be a true polka legend, you'll want to be a little more discreet. You'll want to preserve some of the mystique of your ancient craft, no matter how proud of it you may be! Make yourself scarce: retreat to the Swiss Alps. Better yet, hole up at the North Pole! Now take that same advice and apply it to celebrating Christmas.You're halfway to being Mrs. Claus already! But if you want to seal the deal, you'll want a red dress (with a little stretch for extra Christmas cookies) and a festive white apron edged in lace. You'll want to festoon yourself with symbols of the season, like holly leaves and candy canes. But whereas an Overly-Festive Granny might resort to an unsafe battery-powered musical light display, keep things simple and understated. After all, Mrs. Claus doesn't need to prove to anybody that she's got plenty of holiday cheer!
Grinchly PonderingsEvery who down in Whoville liked Christmas a lot! But the Grinch, who lived just north of Whoville did not!Can a Grinch survive with shoes that are too tight? Or a head that just isn't screwed on right? Or if his heart was two sizes too small? Why yes, he can. In Dr. Seuss, a creature can survive just about anything. The Grinch can live off of eating glass, he has lived 53 years with his grinchy attitude about the Whos.It's easy to remember dad sitting by the Christmas tree, his face lit with multicolored lights, book in hand, scent of evergreen (or plastic) in the air. It's easy to remember being snuggled up against him as he read the rhymes, and grumbled the Grinch. He sang the Welcome Christmas song (even though it wasn't in the book). His low voice singing "Fah who For-aze, Dah who dor-aze, Welcome Christmas, Come this way!"Design & DetailsThis Christmas, your children can have the same kind of love for the Grinch that your father gave to you. Put on this Plus Size Grinch Costume, and pull out the book that your father read to you. This Made By Us costume comes with a red jacket with white fuzzy trim. The pom poms in front make this look and feel just like Santa Claus' outfit. The green gloves and a molded vinyl mask round out this classic Christmas look!A Grinch TraditionYou will see their eyes light up as you come in dressed as the Grinch. And they will be even more excited when you do the voices that your dad showed you how to do. You will be proof that a Grinch can survive with a head that isn't screwed on quite right. And, you'll realize that you can indeed survive when your heart grows three times it's normal size looking at your very own Whos from Whoville.
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!
Do you ever wonder if Elves struggle with job satisfaction? Like, think of all the guys you know in high school who were supposed to go into business with the family or take over their father’s line of work…were any of them really that excited to do it? No! Most of them were all, “I wanna be my own person! I wanna strike out and find my fortune, make this one and only life worth livin’!” And you were like, “Yeah! Totally! Independence! Go find it! Find and be freeee!”But what about the elves? They’re stuck in a centuries-old tradition of livin’, breathin’, and dyin’ by the tradition of the toys. What if one of them was like, “Yo, I don’t wanna make toys! I wanna market exciting new brand concepts for a living!” Would they be kicked out of the North Pole? Shunned by their elf family forever? Or do you think there’s a sort of elf Rumspringa or an Elf Gap Year, where they get to visit other elf colonies to see what’s been doing, and maybe try their hand at being a cobbler elf or a Keebler elf (mmmm….cookies…)? We just have so many questions for those little guys!But if you’re one of those elves who grew up knowing that following in your family’s footsteps was all you ever wanted to do, then it’s time to suit up and get ready for the rest of your life with this jolly Adult Elf Costume! The festive polyester red shirt ties in the back of the neck, and has an attached green collar and cuffs that sport faux gold buttons for extra HoJo touch! There’s also faux gold bells on the jagged hemline for a little added jingle-jangle, and green pants have an elastic waistband for an extra comfy fit! Also included is the brown belt and the red and green elf hat! Just add some elf shoe covers and you’re ready to embark on a lifetime vocation that may or may not burden the next generation with unrealistic and stifling life choices that are not their own! Merry Christmas!
There are a few times in our lives -- callings, if you will -- that simply call for haute couture hats. For instance, when you're sipping on sparkly, minty beverages at a race track. And no, you don't just have to be watching horses race. You could also be watching turtles or bulldogs go 'round and 'round, of course. Although watching turtles race requires different headgear. More shell, if you're wondering. And then there are the royal weddings of the world. How many more princes are there left to marry in the world? We don't know but we're hoping our closet full of fascinators will come in handy again in the near future. You hear that, you queen? We're totally prepared for future invites!If you want to be ready for anything, you have to have one of these Deep Burgundy Veiled Fascinators in your closet. They work for derby parties, fifties movie star ensembles, flapper themed events, and let's not forget the next royal wedding! We recommend wearing it to the coffee shop on your next day off, too. You never know who you'll want to impress! If a prince knocks you off your socks at one of these events, you can come back for your white fascinator one day. Remember where ya came from, kid!
