In This Article:

So we are officially in spooky season, which means Halloween is right around the corner!

Some people may have had their outfits planned since September, or some may have even had them planned as early as January (I applaud you if you are one of those people).

However, there are those of us who fall victim to not having an outfit planned yet because procrastination is more our style.

If you are one of those people, like myself, then here are __ Halloween costume ideas to throw together last minute.

1. 80’s outfit

Break out your mom's old windbreaker, throw on some workout leggings, and get ready to crimp your hair because this is an easy DIY outfit that you can do with stuff that you probably have.

If you don't have the stuff though, thrift shops are full of super cheap supplies to help you live out your greatest 80's dreams.

2. Vampire

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.

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.
