DIY Pinky Swear Halloween Costume

Fuck, man! Picking a Halloween costume is rough and, if you're like me, most likely a last-minute undertaking. Want an easy idea? Like puns? Got a potty mouth? I have just the DIY costume idea for you...

DIY Food TV Halloween Costume Ideas: Giada De Laurentiis

Remember when I showed you how to dress up as your favorite star chefs for Halloween? There was an Ina Garten Halloween costume (my fave), a Nigella Lawson costume, a whole gaggle of gals—and I think it's time for a few more additions! So here's the plan:

For the next 3 weeks I will be posting some serious Halloween costume inspiration and not just food TV bombshells: Super-talented lady chefs, food writers, bloggers, bakers—it's going to be a blast! These costumes are easy to throw together, plus it's the perfect excuse to carry around snacks all night :) 

First up, Giada De Laurentiis...

WHAT YOU'LL NEED

- gold teardrop earings

- siren red lipstick

- white bandage dress

- red patent leather pumps

- canned tomatoes (preferably DOP)

For Giada, stick with an iconic look like this outfit from her saucy feature in Esquire magazine. Remember: many people admire her well, melons, so may I subtly suggest a little pushup enhancement, if needed. Also, it wouldn't hurt to really pronounce those Italian food items (think: mars-ca-pone-ee) like Giada does!
