Before you succumb to those cliché cat ears or standard white button up and Ray-Bans for that "Risky Business" costume we all know (and don’t really love enough to see every October), let’s search our archives for something awesome and creative. Since Los Angeles is inextricably, hands down, the
best city in the nation, why not pay homage to the
taco-eating, sunset-loving,
juice cleansing characters of this city by embodying one of its
landmarks? A nod to any of our friendly
local celebs would be a good choice, but for something worthy of a standing ovation, check out this list of Halloween costume ideas inspired by our fair city.
