5 After 5, Cleverest Costumes

It's Halloween weekend!  What are five of the cleverest/cutest costumes you've ever seen?  Share them here at this week's edition of 5 After 5!

It's time for another round of 5 After 5!  In case you missed it, last week's list was 5 ways you make home feel homey and if you're new to this series, you can read more about it here - then catch up on all the old editions here.


Today I've got my list of 5 to share, as well as next week's topic for you to stew about over the upcoming days.


And this series is a link party, so be sure to scroll down and join in all the fun with us this week!




List 5 of the cleverest (or cutest) costumes you've seen


Even if you don't celebrate Halloween, chances are, you sometimes have an occasion to dress up in a costume.

Most schools have a week each year (like Homecoming & Red Ribbon Week) with themed dress-up days - or maybe you dress up for a costume party, fall festival, book character parade or All Saints' Day celebration (or even dress up for trips like this!)

Whatever the event, these are five of the cleverest costumes I've come across:


1.  Gum on Shoe


2.  Hurricane


3.  Family S'Mores


4.  Candy Buttons


5.  Gumball Machine




For next week:


List 5 of your favorite podcasts

Podcasts seem to be all the rage nowadays.  I don't listen to them very often, but there are at least five that I subscribe to and try to catch on a fairly regular basis.

I'm sure after you share yours next week, I'll have a few more to add to my list!



And now, here's this week's link party!  Two other fabulous bloggers have teamed up with me to create lists of five each week and we hope that you'll join us, too!



That's right, every post will be read, pinned and tweeted!  

Every Saturday, just stop by one of our three blogs to add your own list of five, then pop over and read as many other posts as you're able to each week - treat it like a true party and really mix it up and mingle with our fun little community!

The rules are simple:  just write your own list following the prompt each week (feel free to interpret it loosely - or in a unique way!), follow each of the three hosts on the social media channel of your choice, and then get into the spirit of the party by grabbing your favorite beverage or snack and reading the lists of the other party-goers.
