Sexy Halloween Costumes have gotten a lot of press this year. I have always quietly admired (read: judged) women who see Halloween as an opportunity to show a little skin. Lindsay Lohan's character in Mean Girls said it best "Halloween is the one night of the year where girls can dress like sluts and nobody can say anything about it." Fair enough! However, the next morning all bets are off. I had the pleasure of seeing one of the best walks of shame early this morning. You know that sexy bumble bee costume? Not so sexy at 6:15am when you have eyelashes stuck to your cheek, your fishnets are torn and the stranger who you decided to go home with is dutifully hailing you a cab on his way to his trading job on Wall Street. The poor fella who thought it'd be a good idea to bring a little honey home last night is clearly second guessing his decision. As me and my fellow dog walkers and morning joggers get our day started we look on as (not so)sexy bumble bee and Wall Street boy exchange awkward salutations and empty promises of keeping in touch. The lesson here, if you are going to let Halloween bring out your inner slut, for your own dignity at least wear a coat to soften the blow of that obvious and oh so painful walk of shame the next morning.
Colbert did a hilarious piece on sexy costume discrimination (sexy ketchup, really?)
