9 DIY Halloween Costume Ideas You Must Try
E News

Now that Halloween is here, most of us are stoked to show off our costumes. But if you're anything like me, you procrastinated until the very last second to find a costume. Others, the other hand, still don't have one. If you are one of those people, have no fear. Here are 10 fun ideas for super easy, DIY costumes.

1. Deviled Eggs

To fry this costume up fast, all you need is a devil headband from when you were a devil for Halloween (who wasn't?) and a solid white shirt. Cut out a piece of yellow construction paper and you're well done.

2. Cereal Killer

For this costume, just cut up cereal boxes and smear strawberry syrup on a fake knife. You'll hear a "snap, crackle, pop" in no time.

3. Mac N Cheese

As cheesy as this costume sounds, it's fairly simple. Paint some toilet paper rolls yellow and cover a laundry basket with poster board.


4. Donald Trump

If you want to "Make America Great Again", put on a blazer over a shirt and tie, and apply orange-tinted foundation.


5. Big Kid

A lazy person's dream. Roll out of bed in your pajamas, put your hair in pigtails, put on your fuzzy slippers, and grab your teddy bear.

6.Mummy

Dress in all white, wrap toilet paper around yourself, and add ketchup or red food coloring. Bonus points if you can remain silent.


7. Orbit Girl

Wear an all-white suit, tie a blue ribbon around your neck, and attach an Orbit logo to your shirt.


8. Ghost

An oldie but goodie, all you need is a white sheet. Cut out holes for your eyes and mouth. Take it to the next level by applying blush and lipstick to the sheet.

9. Error Code

If you're still having problems figuring out what you want to be, just write "Error 404-Costume Not Found" on a white t-shirt.

I hope these suggestions help, though worst-case-scenario, you can scare everyone by just being yourself. Anything you do will be spooktacular. Have a happy and safe Halloween, everyone!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
