Halloween is fast approaching, and if you’re anything like me (i.e. indecisive, a chocoholic, a procrastinator, and pretty much broke AF) deciding on a costume that won’t break the bank and can be put together ASAP is practically a miracle! Last week I wrote about 20 things to do in Fall, and since we are currently in the middle of the 2016 Fall season (How is it already OCTOBER though?!), the weather has been cooling down and before we know it Halloween will have past and we’ll be planning our New Year's Resolutions… that we may or may not keep. Whether you’re going to Trick-or-Treat, a themed party, or whatever you do on Halloween, these 11 costume ideas are perfect!
1. Regina George
Cut two holes over the chest into a white tank top, and a colorful bra or cami underneath! Add in a black skirt and black shoes and your good to go! If you want to add a blonde wig go for it, this is such an easy costume to pull off.
2. COSTUME
Grab a t-shirt, black paint and a paint brush and your halfway done. Writing the word COSTUME onto a t-shirt is a simple idea for halloween and will probably get a good laugh from your friends! Print out stencils to make neater letters or free hand it, just remember to let the paint dry before wearing it!
3. A Nerd
It’s practically a classic Halloween look, “nerd” glasses and suspenders along with pens, pencils, and a calculator in the breast pocket of a button down shirt and your done!
4. A Black Cat
You can literally just draw whiskers on your face. Or if you have more time, add in a cat ear headband. Don’t forget to wear all black!
5. Error 404: Page
This costume goes along the line as the COSTUME one. Everybody knows “Error 404: File Not Found” page. Well Grab a T-shirt, marker or paint, and voila! A new costume is created! Substitute in “costume not found” for “file not found” and you are complete!
6. Basic Girl
Uggs, a Northface, and leggings. Bam you are done! Add in some Starbucks for a complete look.
7. Lazy Day
Wear your PJ’s, sweats or whatever you wear on lazy days, messed up hair and a blanket and popcorn or some type of snack and your “Lazy Day” costume is complete!
8. Tourist
Get a fanny pack laying around and a Hawaiian/Tropical shirt, add in sunglasses and a camera and you officially look like a Tourist.
9. When Life Gives You Lemons
Write or paint “Life” onto a t-shirt, preferably a white one so you can see the words clearly, and buy a lemon or a bag of lemons and pretend to hand them out. You can actually hand them out but since you bought them, you might as well keep them and use them for Lemonade or another dish!
10. Secret Service
Black sunglasses and dark clothing or a suit and you can be secret service!
11. Risky Business
A oversized white button down shirt with white socks and black sunglasses and you are Tom Cruise in Risky Business! ( wear shorts or boxers or spandex underneath!)
