1. Clary from The Mortal Instruments Series
My hair is more the color of the movie star, minus the very heavy eyebrows. But I'd want more the book cover color of hair, I love that red!
2. Katniss from The Hunger Games

Especially that awesome girl on fire dress!!
3. America from The Selection series, in either the blue dress on the cover of the first book, or her wedding dress on the 3rd book cover.
Maybe not practical for a Halloween costume, but so beautiful!
4. Alyssa from Splintered
I've included an outfit posted by the author on her Pinterest page for the character.
5. Katerina from the Katerina series by Robin Bridges

I love the fancy dress on the 2nd book, but the outfit on the first book, while kind of vague looking in the picture, does have a hat which helps show that she is from Russia.
6. Bella from Twilight

6. Bella from Twilight
I loved the dress that she wore to her birthday party in the New Moon movie. And they sold it at Hot Topic that year! So I did actually wear that one year, although not for Halloween, for a wedding I think. :-)
7. Elizabeth Bennett from Pride and Prejudice
First, because who doesn't want their own Mr. Darcy? Although he is kind of an ass. But the dresses would be fun to wear! For a costume that is.
8. Scarlett O'Hara from Gone With the Wind
So hard to pick just one, as they were all so beautiful! But I'll go with this one.
9. Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Technically the movie and tv series came before any books, but that's okay, there are a ton of books for the show now. And I'd go with her red leather pants and black top. Well, if I wouldn't look like someone had stuffed two sausages into some pants.
10. Sookie Stackhouse from Dead Until Dark or True Blood TV series

If the Sookie outfit doesn't work, I'll go back to my Star Trek uniform for my costume this Friday night. So, what about you, what characters would you, or are you maybe going to dress up like for Halloween this year, or maybe you have in the past?
Great list. I love the costumes from GWTW.
ReplyDeleteOh me too. I just love to watch that movie just for the clothes.
DeleteGreat list! I would also love to dress like America... who wouldn't want to wear that beautiful gown for a night? I did my Home on books to read to get into the Halloween spirit. Happy Halloween!
ReplyDeleteThat was my thought. Just for one night. I'll have to go check out your post as well! Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteOoo I loved the idea of an Alyssa costume!
ReplyDeleteAmber Elise @ Du Livre
That's what I thought, would be very cool!
DeleteAwesome list! I bought the first two books in the Katerina series because they sounded really good (and the covers are gorgeous). I can't wait to read them. I figured winter would be a perfect time for them. I'm probably going to go as Karou from Daughter of Smoke and Bone since I have a blue wig. I can just draw hamsas on my hands. Happy Halloween! Thanks for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteThey were both pretty good, as well as the third one. It is probably a great idea to read them in the winter with the location of the stories. I hope you took pictures of yourself in your costume, I'll bet it was cool! Thanks for returning the stop.
DeleteI'd love to dress up as Alyssa! She has such awesome taste in clothes :)
ReplyDeleteMy TTT
Yes she does, it would be so fun. Thanks for visiting!
DeleteSome very girly picks compared to my butch ones :)
ReplyDeleteI'd love to have Katniss and her flaming dress, that'd be absolutely gorgeous.
Great ideas! I love that you included pictures of what they actually wear instead of just the book cover. I do love the dress from the Twilight series and I'd love to be Elizabeth Bennett.
ReplyDeleteI picked Scarlett and America too! All such great choices.
ReplyDeleteI love your selection, I especially like all the beautiful dresses!
ReplyDeleteGreat list! I put America on my list as well!
ReplyDeleteCheck out my TTT here!
Great list! I'd love to dress up as America and wear those gorgeous dresses! Buffy's outfit is also a great choice! :)
ReplyDeleteLove this idea!
ReplyDeleteLove your list :) Great choice :) Elizabeth Benneth are absolute one of mye favorite.
ReplyDeleteY'know, it's funny, I picked Katniss too, but I didn't even remember her Girl on Fire dress, which would make an awesome Halloween costume! Great choice! :) And thanks for stopping by my blog!
