1. Your group of friends does not have enough girls with the appropriately colored hair to perfectly execute the group costume you wanted. How are you supposed to convince people you’re the Spice Girls if you don’t even have a single redheaded friend?!
2. You “forgot” to go to the gym to prepare your body for the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader costume you’ve been planning to wear. Now you have to search for something with a covered midriff.
3. You signed into Pinterest only to find that you’re not the first one to come up with your super clever costume idea. Back to the drawing board.
4. The “Sexy (insert literally any occupation here)” costume that you ordered online finally arrived in the mail! But it’s the skimpiest piece of material you have ever laid eyes on. Did you accidentally order an outfit for an American Girl Doll? Can you even return it if it’s already been opened? Who even knows? Return policies for Halloween costumes are about as consistent as Maine weather.
5. How soon is too soon to wear your costume? Is it weird if you wear it now? Okay, yes, probably. But what if you just wear the crown around while you do laundry? Still, no? Fine.
