The most versatile Halloween costume this year is the simple Pottery Barn Teen skeleton costume . I've overheard so many tween boys say that they are planning to dress as a "skeleton skateboarder" or a "skeleton zombie" or a "skeleton something or other". With this simple hoodie-style fleece costume, your skeleton will be warm while spooking the competition. To build on this costume, simply add a skeleton mask, a skateboard , fake blood and you're all set.
