By now, you’ve seen how it all ends. Hopefully, you have, otherwise the Internet will surely spoil the last episode for you. Don’t worry, Heisenbergers — we won’t do that to you. For today’s Throwback Thursday Costume Idea, we’re bringing back the Chemistry Teacher-turned-meth-dealer’s garb, and giving you a whole new option (which, fittingly, […]

Trick or Twerk: Robin Thicke and Miley Cyrus Costumes (Day 7)
Yup, we went there. Because when it comes to outrageous Halloween couples costumes, this is it. It’s like being Taylor Swift and Kanye West back in 2009: Instant conversation-sparker. You can have a lot of fun with these getups, but all we ask is that you avoid recreating their performance, as tempting as it is, […]
TV Tuesday: Game of Thrones Costume (Day 6)
Yeah, yeah, winter is coming. But you know what’s coming sooner? HALLOWEEN. And this Halloween, why not dress up like your favorite Game of Thrones character? Just about every costume shop is discretely offering their take on Thrones, even if copyright laws prevent them from actually calling it that. (That’s also why those suspiciously Katy […]
Music Monday: Katy Perry’s “Roar” Costume (Day 5)
It wouldn’t be Halloween at Collegiate Cook without a Katy Perry-inspired costume (see Kathy Beth Terry from KP’s “TGIF” video, and her circa-“California Gurls”). It’s not that Katy P. is some kind of joke to us — oh, heck no! — it’s that her video outfits are pretty much the most fun ensembles to pull […]
Foodie Friday: 3-Ingredient Ghost Truffles
I was ready to moonwalk down the street to the tune of “Casper, the Friendly Ghost” when I thought of this recipe. It was the perfect combination of the truffles that captured Buzzfeed’s attention AND Halloween goofiness. I knew, as sure as I knew (uh, spoiler alert!) that Miley Cyrus was going to be the […]
Throwback Thursday: Hunger Games Costumes (Day 3)
Last year, we showed you how to dress like The Capitol’s Chicest resident, Effie Trinket. And since the second Hunger Games film, Catching Fire, comes out next month (woohoo!), the costume is as relevant as ever. Only problem? Some of the items we showed you last year are no longer in stock (boo! hiss!), so […]
“What the…?” Wednesday: Ylvis Fox Costume (Day 2)
As we planned each day’s theme for our pop-culture costume-obsessed #Halloween13 series, we decided on Wednesday’s based on “The Fox” music video alone. Yes, technically it could be a “Music Monday” costume choice, but really, after about 11 seconds of watching this video, you’ll have only one acceptable response: “What the…?” Just watch: We salute […]
TV Tuesday: The Duck Dynasty Costume That Will Win Over Everyone (Day 1)
I don’t care how anti-reality TV you are — it’s impossible not to get hooked on the kooky antics of the Duck Dynasty, AKA the Robertson family. Yes, they’re in the business of making and selling duck calls. Yes, they have beards you could hide a guinea pig in. Yes, they (or rather, Uncle Si) […]

Starting Oct. 1, visit CollegiateCook.com every single day for a new trick…or treat. Mondays through Thursdays will be all about costume ideas, with each day fitting a […]
