13 Costume Ideas For This Halloween

If you’re like me, you’re probably scrambling to come up with a decent idea for a costume with Halloween just around the corner. Every year we tend to see the same nurses, cops, sports fans and witches that every costume store seems to sell. So if you’re looking for something a little more creative, here are a few unique (and not so unique because yeah, we only have so much time left to get those outfits ready) ideas for those last minute Halloween costumes.

1. Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton


These masks are accurate AF and available in so many Halloween stores it's actually hilarious. I have a feeling we'll be having a lot of Donald Trumps running around next weekend. Talk about your creepy ass Halloween.

2. Clowns


And speaking of creepy, you can always go with the classic clown choice if you really want to freak out your neighborhood this year.

PS: Please don't. We've had enough creepy clowns these past few months to last a lifetime (though note my choice of a "happy" clown costume above.)

PPS: JK clowns are always creepy.

3. Joker and Harley Quinn


Kind of basic when it comes to costumes (I'm guessing we'll be seeing a lot of these too) but you can't go wrong.

4. Harambe


#RIP

5. Snapchat Dog Filter



Yes, this is actually a thing. Click here to go to Amazon and check it out for yourself.

6. Starbucks Drink

For the most basic of the basic bitches. Also, totally DIY-able.

7. Pokemon


With the craze for Pokemon Go this year, you'll be right in the trend with any Pokemon costume.

8. Snapchat filters


This one might take a little more artistry, but if you're good with a makeup brush then you should definitely give these unique looks a shot. Check out Patrick Starrr and Shay Mitchell's tutorial on how to make these Snapchat inspired looks here.

9. Life Alert and Old Lady


Would honestly die if I ever saw this in person (thank you Pinterest 😂).

10. Fuckboy and Dating App

Perfect for any millenial.


11. Whip and Nae Nae


Again, thank you Pinterest. Killin' it 😂.

12. Your favorite fictional character

Basically, any character ever created is fair game (*cough* Game of Thrones *cough*).


13. And if all else fails, “Wear all the black shit in your closet, put on a black mask and call yourself a mystery girl or night fairy.”


AKA me every year. (Quote courtesy of a friend who knows me too well).

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
