Make the Bachelorette Blush with Guess the Panties Game

Need a safe game to get your Bachelorette and group in the mood for an adventurous night?

Well Guess the Panties is a safe, fun and a little naughty game that might make the Bachelorette and the guest blush too. What will like about this game is that it is perfect for any woman about to get married and can be played in a hotel room, home and if you have a private room or corner of a restaurant.

Please note it is not best to play this Bachelorette game where there will be lots of kids and maybe not where there are guys drinking either; now that I think about it.

For Guess the Panties each guest is asked to purchase a pair of panties and bring it to the party unwrapped without the price. Then the panties are placed into a bag and that is when the fun begins. The Bachelorette must than one by one pull out a pair of panties and determine who gave them.

We added a few other Bachelorette ideas to this game, Guess the Panties and even added another version that is even naughtier!

Ten Costume Trends for Halloween 2011

Yes it's August and Yes it's going to be 90 or more in many parts of the US today, but believe it or not Halloween is right around the corner and hopefully so is cooler weather. So, what are the emerging Halloween costume trends for Halloween 2011?

Well after much review of costume shops, Summer movies, music and tv, Party Game Ideas has put together our Ten Costume Trends for Halloween 2011.

1. Captain America will be the most popular of the Summer Blockbuster Superheros. While the Thor might have sold more tickets than Captain America, men, women and children will be wearing traditional and revised Captain America costumes.


2. Harry Potter remains a powerhouse and while there will still be many Harry, Hermione and Ron's this Halloween expect to see many more Voldemort's as this villain has finally arrived.

3. Angry Birds - Yes Angry Birds costumes will be out and about this year, so expect to see fun mobs of Red and Yellow Angry birds attacking Green Pigs! A fun group Halloween costume.


4. Bridesmaids Dresses make a comeback. Still have that ugly Bridesmaid dress from your friends wedding? Well thanks to the female version of the Hangover, Bridesmaids, you'll get to see many of those horrible dresses again.

5. Monster High - For tweens and some teenagers Monster High is the rage and now they have released more costumes for Halloween 2011. However, in my opinion these costumes are now age appropriate.

6. Smurfs - Yes the Smurfs and Smurfette are back and are here to haunt adults and and encourage kids to hold their ground until they are blue in the face. No need to worry, the price of a Smurf costume shouldn't leave you blue.

7. Transformers - Yes Transformers are back with this Transformers 3 movie, but while there is a uptick in interest in Transformers costumes, it is lower than after Transformers 2. Demand will for Transformers costumes will be higher for kids, than for adults.

8. Amy Winehouse and Micheal Jackson will get a Halloween bump. Amy Winehouse who sang Rehab and past away in July will be an under the radar kind of do it yourself costume, that we think has momentum. Michael Jackson, while down in 2010 will receive renewed interest when his murder trail begins in September.

9. Lady Gaga, Snooki and the rest of the Jersey Shore get kicked to the curb for 2011. While these looks ruled Halloween 2010, Lady Gaga has had no iconic looks since the launch of her album Born The Way and Snooki and the Jersey Shore cast now seem washed up and so over exposed that we expect the to be deeply discounted by October. Good News - You can you the Snooki bump wigs for your Amy Winehouse costume.

10. Movies influence on Halloween continues.
While I did not single them out, Thor, Pirates of the Caribbean, Kung Fu Panda, Cars 2, The Green Lantern, Rise of the Planet of the Apes and even Winnie the Pooh movie will drive kids and adults to dress and buy Halloween costumes that reflect characters in those movies. And we expect that Conan, Spy Kids, Twilight and even next summers Batman movie will increase interest in those costumes as well. Overall, movies play a big role each year in creating short and long term trends that make Halloween interesting, fun and ever changing and we like that.

Smurfs Trending Halloween Costume!

Papa Smurf, Smurfette and all their little friends seem to be multiplying little, well Smurfs!

A month ago Smurfs really weren't on the radar as a popular Halloween costume, but then the movie came out and those cute little blue Smurfs pushed Pooh, Cars and even Kung Fu Panda out of the way to become a trending Halloween costume for the under 7 crowd.

While parents may not have loved the Smurfs Movie, both boys and girls found the movie to be fun and entertaining. And historically speaking, the last big kids movie released before Halloween often plays an important role in what kids want to be for Halloween and with more than 8 million viewers of the Smurfs Movie, blue is in this Halloween. Check out our Top Halloween costumes now.

Here are some Smurf Costumes and accessories we found online.
The Smurfs-Smurf Infant/Toddler Costume
Toddler - Smurf Costume
and Smurf Child Costume

The Smurfs-Smurfette Child Costume
Smurfette Costume
and Smurfette Infant/Toddler Costume

Plus we found cute Smurfs Mittens for children and Smurf Shoe Covers too.

We thought the kids Smurf costumes we adorable and so cute, but if your an adult Smurf at heart they have Papa Smurf and Smurf costume accessories for you too.
