Linkage: Top Halloween Costumes

I saw something recently that said that Halloween should be called "Slut-o-ween" based on the way many women costume themselves for this holiday. If the young women I saw yesterday were any indication of a trend, then I would have to say that I agree. I haven't seen that many short skirts and fishnet stockings in a long time.

Here's a survey done by the National Retail Foundation of the costumes people intended to wear this year:
