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!

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
