"Forgive the blurriness of this photo — this was back when film cameras were cool. One Halloween in college, there was a going out top I really wanted to wear that had a see-through strip down the middle. The problem was that I didn't know what I actually wanted to be while wearing it. The shirt was all-black, so the typical thing to do would just slap on cat ears and call it a day, but as previously mentioned, I was too cool. Instead, I sat very still with my neck back while my skilled friend used a Too Faced eye shadow palette to paint on a skeleton neck. This idea is great for someone who has a cute outfit planned that doesn't immediately call to mind any obvious costume. Even if you're not as talented as my friend (who did an excellent skull neck), it's easy to phone-in stripes of white eye shadow in a bone formation." — Alaina Demopoulos, beauty writer
