25 Last-Minute Halloween Costumes

Halloween is less than a week away and the time for last-minute stitching and/or shopping has come. Being the eternal procrastinator, I never know what I want to be until the night before has come and I’m rummaging frantically through my closet, tossing useless shirts and shoes to the side, and finding almost the perfect costume until I realize I just needed one more simple thing.
