We've all been there. "There" being the place where it's the week before (or the day before!) Halloween, and you have no costume. This usually happens because 1) You procrastinated and never quite made it to Party City, or 2) You were not going to go out. You're an adult and you have better things to do than dress up and go to a party. But then, you realize you don't have anything better to do, and you don't want to be old and boring, so you're going. But what about that costume?
Don't worry, I've got you.
Mary Poppins. This is perfect, because you've probably got almost all of these things laying around your house anyway. Black skirt? White shirt? Umbrella? Oversized bag? You may have to run to the store to pick up a thing or two to perfect your costume, but this one is way easy.
Pineapple. I love this one because you could go as exaggerated as the picture above, or you could make a tiny little headpiece, making this appropriate for a fancier party. Bonus: Don't have a yellow dress? Wear a red one. Boom, you're a strawberry.
Your favorite emoji. The link above has 10 easy DIY costumes, so pick the emoji you use the most and go with it!
Piñata. How cute is this? Just swing by Wal-Mart (or even the dollar store!) and pick up some streamers, and you're set!
Audrey Hepburn. Because honestly, when are you going to get to dress this classy ever again?
Gum-ball Machine. This one will take a little bit more DIY-ing and a lot more pompoms on your part, but how adorable is it?! And so pretty and colorful, but still easy to pull off at the last minute. This one's a winner for sure.

Okay, this is fantastic. I am the WORST at coming up with easy, yet creative costumes. That pineapple?! Amazing.

I love this! I still haven't come up with anything. I love the emoji costumes!!
ReplyDeleteLove them! I was going to be a pinata, but then we didn't really have any plans to go out anywhere, so instead I just made a costume I can wear to work! Last year I did the bubblegum machine at work!
