Halloween Idea #6: The Old College Try

Today's costume is more of an idea than a specific character. How about a college campus circa the 50s/60s? I realize some of these things are out of other decades. I'm no historian, so leave any snarky comments to yourselves. Spice these costumes up with some vintage books from your local thrift store and you're all set.

I like your idea. I am happy to see old college collection. I like pink sweater and brown shoes a lot. Your collection of Halloween is very nice. I think you can choose your own dress also. I like antique things and old outfits. Thanks for the post.
