11 Ways to Be a Corpse Bride This Halloween

Sep 26, 2014

Picking the right Halloween costume is a difficult task. You can go for something nostalgic, something classic or something super simple. The endless options can become overwhelming. We say, embrace the scary side of the holiday this year. Because c’mon, you don’t get to wear fake blood everyday, now do you? For an outfit that is a little glamorous but still totally haunting here are 11 ways to be a bride back from the dead this Halloween.

1. Corpse Bride: Being dead never looked so good. Make Tim Burton proud by channeling one of his most popular characters this Halloween. This look will have you feeling blue in all the right ways. (via AWSM Blog)

2. Pretty Zombie Makeup: Sure, maybe zombies eat brains for dinner, but they might want to look nice while they do it on their big day. Take inspiration from Brit for a zombie look that is a little less gory and a lot more glam. (via Brit + Co)

3. Zombie Bridesmaids: We know all about the back-from-the-dead bride, but what about her badass bridesmaids? Forget the couples costume. Here’s a fun look for you and your favorite group of ladies. (via Costume Prize)

4. Silver Bride Costume ($40): We aren’t always the biggest fans of pre-made costumes but this one is definitely a keeper. This lady is obviously totally scary and ghostly now, but we get the feeling she was a class act in her former life.

5. Bride of Frankenstein: Kate Beckinsale is killing it in this black and white getup. Channel the classic movie character for a look that is a little rock n’ roll but still very dead. (via Zimbio)

6. Rockabilly Bride of Frankenstein: If you want to put your own spin on the costume, here’s the perfect way to do so. Transport the bride of Frankenstein from Switzerland to the local sock hop with this ’50s interpretation. (via Halloween Forum)

7. Zombie Bride Makeup: Step your pretty zombie up a notch with some fake blood! Take some tips from this video to add some gorgeous gore. (via Wonder How To)

8. Dia de los Muertos Bride: Here is a great option if you want to play dead, but still incorporate some color. If you’re not sure where to start on the face makeup, check out our tutorial on how to paint a candy skull. (via Michele Butler Events)

9. Bed Sheet Bride: This costume doesn’t have to drain your bank account. In fact, if you have an old, white bed sheet you’re all set. This style guru shows you how to transform linens into a tattered gown and use red lipstick for blood. (via YouTube)

10. Dead Flapper: The flapper girl costume has been done to death. And so what better way to go about it than to become a ’20s bride, hungry for brains? This look is super fun and would be much more moveable than strutting around in a giant gown all night long. (via The Uptown Bride)

11. Diva Bride: If you don’t want to go too gloomy but are looking for something a little tamer than a candy skull face, follow Christina Aguilera’s lead with a colored wig! It is a subtle way to make things more cheerful even though you’re, well you know… dead. (via Brit + Co)

Are you considering dressing as a dead bride this Halloween? Which costume idea is your favorite?

31 Warm Salad Recipes to Keep It Healthy This Winter

Chilly weather is always followed by comfort food; it’s how we manage to get through those months of endless gloom. Though we love comfort food, it catches up to us after a while and leaves us feeling rather sluggish. We know how weird it sounds, but warm salads are the best for this time of year. They’re the perfect option for when it’s absolutely freezing outside but you’re still wanting to chow down on a healthy dish.

Typically, warm salads leverage roasted, fried or baked components that are used to top a hearty bed of lettuce, among your other fave salad toppings. These recipes are sure to give you a boost of warmth and nutrient-dense bites. Try out a warm salad for your next dinner! We’ve got some hearty winter salads that will warm you up and keep your belly satisfied.

What is the definition of a warm salad?

Warm salads are just what they sound like. Picture your favorite cold salad, but transformed into the perfect dish to enjoy during the winter. Warm salads typically feature heartier, cooked ingredients that add flavorful warmth such as meat, potatoes or other roasted vegetables. You can steam, roast or fry the main source of warmth in your salad recipe. A warm salad is made to keep you toasty and satisfied during the cold months when you’re craving greens.

Can salad be eaten hot?

Salads can absolutely be eaten hot, but not extremely hot. We recommend adding cooked and warmed components to your salad, skipping the greens from being cooked. That way your meal will still retain some of that crunch from a salad we all know and love, and remain cozy. It is entirely safe to eat a warm salad, which also means you can reheat your salad dishes without any worries.

Should salad be warm?

Not every salad you prepare has to be warm. The temperature you serve your salad is up to you! The recipes we listed are the best pairings for a warm salad, but can also be eaten cold if desired. Most salads are served cold but warm salads are a great way to get those greens in during the winter.

Do I serve salad warm or cold?

The temperature of your salad is ultimately your choice! We recommend a salad built with warmer components like roasted proteins or vegetables for wintertime, and saving super cold salads for summer. If you’re craving a heartier meal but still want to eat healthy, opt for a warm salad.

These Are The Fast Food Joints That’ll Be Open On Christmas This Year

This year, we’re honoring the fact that Christmas looks a little bit different for everyone. Whether you have an entire feast planned, or are just happy to fly solo for the holiday, there’s always a chance that you may need an easy snack or meal to tie you over between the chaos – plus, missing out on your daily Starbucks fix due to store closures is just no fun!

That’s where fast food places can come in real handy. But what restaurants are even open on Christmas this year? Turns out, some of our absolute favorites will be closed. When you're not celebrating with the fam and just need your drive-thru order, we've got you covered.

Ahead, a comprehensive list of fast food holiday hours that’ll help you navigate your last-minute holiday mealtimes – or in some cases, the main course!

Fast Food Restaurants Open On Christmas

Photo by Samuel Figueroa / PEXELS

Fast food holiday hours can be unpredictable, and largely depend on different restaurant’s needs and customer demand. Of course, these factors can change depending on where you live, too. Based on the information available, these are the places that will be open for Christmas 2023:

Boston Market
Burger King
Denny’s
Domino’s
Dunkin’
Hardee’s
IHOP
McDonald’s
Starbucks
Waffle House
Wendy’s

Fast Food Restaurants Partially Open On Christmas

Photo by Polina Tankilevitch / PEXELS

As we noted, fast food holiday hours can really vary. A lot of chains are franchised as well, meaning the owners and/or staff have a say in holiday working hours. These are the restaurants that will likely be open during limited hours on Christmas this year:

Burger King
Domino's
Jersey Mike’s
Panera Bread
Sonic

Fast Food Restaurants Closed On Christmas

Image via Chick-fil-A

We’re pretty sad to report that some of our most favorite fast food joints will be closed entirely on Christmas 2023. If you’re craving any of these places (like a juicy chicken sammie or a cheesy to-go pizza), consider chowing down somewhere else:

Arby's
Auntie Anne's
Bojangles
CAVA
Chick-fil-A
Chipotle
Cracker Barrel
In-N-Out
Jack in the Box
Krispy Kreme
Papa John’s
Popeyes
Qdoba
Raising Cane's
Subway
Taco Bell

This Smokin' Hot F1 Driver Is The Easiest Halloween Costume

When we're dressing up for Halloween, we love a good pop culture costume, TV character costume, or Disney princess. But the items needed for those costumes aren't as versatile as we'd like them to be, considering a giant ballgown can't necessarily be worn in real-world situations. That's where this F1 driver (or Formula 1 driver) costume comes into play. No race car required.

Every element of this costume can be reworn, which is a big plus, and you might already have a lot of it in your closet. The red jumpsuit is a statement if we've ever seen one, and it's as comfy as it is eye-catching. It's also a super-easy outfit to put together (we're talking under 10 minutes), which makes it a great option for any last-minute Halloween parties you get invited to *and* anyone who hates dressing up.

F1 Racecar Driver Halloween Costume

The bold red of this look is the perfect color to match the ferociousness of an F1 driver. Unzipping the top of the jumpsuit, as well as adding a bold lip, beach waves, and a fresh manibring some femininity to the look if you want extra detail. However, you'll look just as good fresh-faced with a messy bun if that's more your speed...no pun intended.

The great thing about wearing a jumpsuit for your Halloween costume is that you only need to worry about one base instead of multiple pieces. Roll up the sleeves if you don't want to deal with extra fabric near your wrists or if you want to wear bracelets. Any details on the jumpsuit — including zippers, buckles, or snaps — will give it even more of a utility look.

In terms of accessories, feel free to break out your favorite fall shoe trend, whether it's white boots or metallic shoes for some shine. We'd recommend keeping the color palette and textures simple so that the jumpsuit really takes center stage. Oh yeah, and don't forget the racing helmet.

Whether you want to do a fall makeup look or go sans makeup for this Halloween costume is totally up to you, but you can't go wrong with some messy waves and a red lip. It's classic!

More F1 Driver Fashion Inspo

With the popularity of the F1 drivers — and F1 racing in general — we've gotten a whole new wave of racing-inspired fashion. We're talking checkered prints, baggy pants, and huge jackets that create a look that feels laidback and edgy at the same time. You don't have to be an F1 or NASCAR driver to knock these looks out of the park.

Play with silhouettes when you pair a baggy jacket with a tighter bodysuit.

www.pinterest.com

Give racing fashion a chic upgrade when you dress in head-to-toe black. You still have that laidback feel, but the monochromatic 'fit keeps things cohesive.

Just because you're wearing cargo pants doesn't mean you have to go super casual. A pop of color and even a pair of heels can dress up your look in a totally unexpected way.

If you're not too sure about the '90s feel of baggy jackets and sweatpants, opt for a cropped and fitted leather jacket that still looks amazing.

Ryan Reynolds Revealed The One Reason He Loves Being A Girl Dad

Blake Lively is as multifaceted as they come. She's an actress who has starred in titles like Gossip Girl, A Simple Favor, and The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants (plus the upcoming adaptation of It Ends With Us). She's the founder of Betty Buzz, which has a variety of non-alcoholic mixers that taste just as good on their own as they do with liquor. And she's also a mom. Lively has been outspoken about protecting her children from the paparazzi, making rare public appearances with them for events like her husband Ryan Reynolds' Hollywood Walk Of Fame Ceremony.

When Lively and Reynolds seemingly announced the birth of their fourth child on February 12, we melted. Here's everything you need to know about Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively's kids.

Per People, Ryan Reynolds has made it clear he and Blake are wholly invested in the kids' daily lives. The doting husband and father enjoys the moments of "walking them to school and walking them back" as it deepens their bond. More than anything, Ryan and Blake's main goal is to make sure they teach their kids how to be introspective with Ryan saying, "...that's the thing we sort of hang our hat on the most is self-awareness with our kids."

However, that doesn't mean Blake and Ryan don't absolutely love being parents. "We're very excited [and] we wouldn't do this four times if we didn't love it," he says in an interview with CNBC's Power Lunch. "Everybody's doing great. Everybody's actually doing fantastic. I think if we hadn't figured it out by now, I think we'd be in deep, deep trouble."

"It's a zoo over here," he jokes. "This is my office here, this is where I'll probably — to be honest, I'll probably spend the rest of my life in here."

We love how much energy Ryan and Blake are pouring into their kids. It's always beautiful when parents are able to be present with their kids and teach them how to be present with themselves.

Ryan Reynolds has also mentioned how having daughters "has been such a ride." Since he comes from a family of all boys, having daughters is something that was beyond his wildest dreams! “I love being a girl dad,” Ryan tells Access. “I have three daughters, which I never in a million years would imagine.”

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds have decided not to hire any nannies for their kids.

The actress used Instagram to admit that being a mom is hard, but she did it with her signature dry sense of humor. “BettyBooze at your service," she wrote in an Instagram Story announcing the new brand. "These are recipes I’ve been making for loved ones for years. But I have 4 kids now. And I’m tired. So here they are. In a can."

However, Lively absolutely loves motherhood, and says in a 2022 interview with Forbes that having children has made her feel more comfortable in her own skin. "Once I had children, that just became even more profound because my time was even more precious, but also I think having children for me made me feel so much more in my skin," she says. "I never felt more myself or at ease in my own body or more confident — not to say that there aren't a bevy of insecurities coming at me a million times a day, but I just feel incredibly settled."

Speaking with People in 2021, Lively also explains how important it is that her children see her accomplish things outside the home. "I want to be as present of a mother as humanly possible and I want them to feel my presence, but I also think the best way to be the best mother is to show them that you can have a life and have a passion and have an identity outside of just being a mother," Lively says.

While she acknowledges that motherhood is all-encompassing, and it looks different for everyone, she knows that having your own identity is very important. "Teaching them that they can maintain themselves and that everything is possible [is crucial]," she adds.
