A Lara Croft Halloween Costume Will Always Turn Heads

By Aiden R. Ringoldsen

Lara Croft has been a popular costume choice, ever since her debut Tomb Raider game. Sequels and the recent Tomb Raider movies have gotten her even more exposure, making a Lara Croft Halloween costume a great choice for women who want something fun and sexy at their next party.

Of course, to dress like Lara, you've got to be comfortable wearing her form fitting top and short shorts. However, if you have the confidence, you'll have a lot of fun and get some attention. Since a Tomb Raider costume is fairly simple, it's the details that make the look. Getting the colors or shapes wrong could lead to people asking you who you're meant to be.

It might seem easy to put together a Lara Croft costume on your own. However, finding the right style and cut of clothes might be harder than it seems. While it can definitely be a money-saver, creating your own Lara Croft costume can take up a lot of time. Because of this, many people decide to buy a costume, instead of making it.

Buying your costume doesn't have to equal paying a lot, of course. There are plenty of ways to find a great looking Lara Croft costume without exceeding your budget. One of the best ones is starting your quest on the Internet.

That's because online sellers have a great advantage when it comes to offering you their costumes at a discount. They can offer a much bigger selection than local stores, and significantly lower prices in many cases. Their lower overhead benefits you.

For you, this translates to the biggest selection of costumes and lower prices, making it easy to get a good deal on your costume. All you have to remember to do is order in time to get your costume by Halloween, and take all shipping and handling fees into account. After all, they can make a difference in the final cost of your costume.

Remember to check costume package contents listings to make sure any accessories you want are included, or if you have to buy them separately. Just because they're in the picture doesn't mean they come with the costume. You should also make sure that you'll fit the size you expect to. Many makers of costumes use different measurement charts than regular clothes manufacturers.

Want a Halloween full of adventure? A Lara Croft Halloween costume is one of the best ways to get it. You'll get a lot of attention at any party with this easily recognizable character, and you'll have a lot of fun, too.
