There must be a news letter I don’t receive. A private subscription sent to girls with the Halloween dress code and a list of acceptable costumes.

Because when I went out for Halloween as a “space enthusiast,” it was clear I did not get the memo.

Sure, I was comfortable in my NASA shirt, leggings, space boots and fanny pack, but I stuck out like a sore thumb. As soon as I stepped into the party, I felt more like a space cadet. I was surrounded by angels, devils and nurses, making me feel more like a 12-year-old sneaking into my older sister’s costume party.

Immediately traumatized, I went for some “liquid courage” to feel more comfortable in my own shoes (and they were Converse, so obviously, I was not doing OK). I then surveyed the room and was so underwhelmed by the stream of revealing costumes out there.

There were only two girls — dressed as Jimmy Fallon’s alter teenage-girl ego, Sarah — who slightly redeemed my faith in the world. When I spoke with these girls they also said they felt out of place because of the sea of spandex and push-up bras around us.

Ever since I saw Mean Girls, I believed that to fit in on Halloween you had to wear a revealing outfit (a la the girl dressed as Karen with mouse ears from Mean Girls). I would really like to say you don’t have to be dressed scantily to feel normal, but looking around the nights of Oct. 30, Oct. 31 and Nov. 1, if you were fully covering your boobs or midriff, you were doing something wrong.

A new trend I saw this Halloween: Day of the Dead costumes, which also required few clothes. I don’t know who decided it would be really cool to completely paint your face and wear a flower wreath on your head, but it was trendy this Halloween. From Demi Lovato to that girl I saw on College Avenue, the Mexican holiday got a huge shoutout.

It’s not as though these Day of the Dead costumes were any less revealing than the girls wearing Playboy Bunny costumes. The outfit was simple, all black and a flower wreath on your head. In fact, it wasn’t even that different from a standard Coachella outfit.

The only problem with all the face makeup is that I saw someone trying to wipe it off and it required some serious scrubbing. Even after all the scrubbing she went to sleep looking as though she had botched stitches on her face.

I might be too harsh of a critic, but I think it is very frustrating to see girls clad in a corset and bunny ears and not be pissed at the world. Come on guys; this isn’t 2008. Even Kim Kardashian leaves little to the imagination covered up for Halloween, dressing as a skeleton one night and then Anna Wintour, the editor-in-chief of Vogue, the next.

I guess I am asking everyone to be a little clever. Maybe put on a corset and bunny ears. then splatter blood all over you and be a vampire bunny. For the Day of the Dead costume, wear an actual Mexican-style dress with your over-the-top face makeup.

Don’t make me feel bad for wearing mock space boots and a fanny pack. I’m just asking for a little authenticity here, people.
