10 sexy, last-minute Halloween costume tips for the gays
Here are 10 perfect ideas for lazy (but sexy) and last-minute Halloween costumes!

So it happened again this year. You waited ’til the absolute last minute, and now, with Halloween basically here, you still don’t have a costume to wear. But don’t worry dear, sweet procrastinator! We're here to help.
While many gays love a complicated and well-thought-out costume, that path is not for everyone. It can be time-consuming, expensive, and hard to come up with. Thankfully for the gays, we have one type of costume we can always rely on: sexy ones!
There’s a long and proud tradition going back years of queer people using Halloween and costumes to show off a lot of skin and leave little to the imagination. With that in mind, here are 10 perfect last-minute costume ideas!
1. Sexy Pikachu

Do you have a yellow speedo? If you do, put it on and paint your cheeks red and you can be Sexy Pikachu! This costume also works for other Pokémon (red = Sexy Charmander, green = Sexy Bulbasaur, blue = Sexy Squirtle, etc.)!
2. Sexy Barbie

Barbie was the biggest movie of the year, but if you don’t have time to get a blonde wig and dress, just hop into a pink speedo and tell people you’re Sexy Barbie!
3. Sexy Mario

If you’ve got a mustache and a red speedo, Sexy Mario is a great costume idea, no overalls needed! Just try to find yourself a matching red hat and paint or tape an "M" on it.
4. Sexy Luigi

Sam deal as the Sexy Mario costume. Or, if you’ve got a mustache and a green speedo, you can be Luigi, and spend your Halloween night looking for a Sexy Mario to complete your set!
5. Sexy Devil

For a super classic costume, put on a red speedo and devil horns, and you’re the Sexy Devil! Nothing’s sexier than temptation!
6. Sexy Angel

If you’re looking to be the Sexy Angel corrupted by a Sexy Devil, put on a white speedo, and voila, you’re a Sexy Angel! Wings and a halo would make your costume more recognizable, but they’re not necessary.
7. Sexy Bugs Bunny

Bugs Bunny in Drag is a classic, iconic Halloween costume, but if you want to make it more simple, put on a gray speedo and bunny ears and you’re Sexy Bugs Bunny. Carrying around a phallic carrot is optional too!
8. A Sexy Rainbow

If you want to celebrate gay Pride during Halloween, toss on a rainbow speedo and you’re a Sexy Rainbow!
9. Sexy Ghostface

This costume works best if you also have a Ghostface mask, but honestly, it's not necessary. All you need is a black speedo and you can be Sexy Ghostface from the Scream franchise!
10. Sexy Academy Award Statuette

The Oscar trophy is already a sexy, naked man, so all you have to do to be the same is put on a gold speedo!
