October is finally right around the corner and Halloween is going to creep up faster than you think! If you’re like me, you’ve probably already started thinking about Halloween costumes, ESPECIALLY if you are in college!! #Halloweekend #Duh
Being original and unique with your costume can be tricky so if you don’t want to be a cat, bunny, or vampire like every other girl at your school, here are 10 costume ideas for you and your friends!
1. Lime, Tequila, & Salt
Grab three friends and dress up as the most iconic trio to ever exist: Lime, Tequila, & Salt. Not only is this super easy but also very funny. You will need a silver or white dress for salt, lime green dress for lime, and sparkly gold dress for tequila. Where signs around your neck with what you are and for tequila, you can put a brand like Jose Cuervo or Patron.
2. Bridezilla
Wear a white dress and white shoes and put a lace veil in your hair! Use fake blood and splatter it all over your outfit and veil for a little twist ;)
3. Deer
If you like doing makeup this idea is super fun. If you go
4. Mermaid
Again, this idea is really cool if you are into doing unique makeup looks. You can do the same thing with the Deer idea and go on Pinterest and look up cool ways to replicate a mermaid makeup look. A trick is using fishnet tights as a stencil and patting in sparkly eyeshadow on your face. For your outfit, you can wear shiny blue or silver leggings or skirt and a crop top that has a scallop detail or texture.
5. Dalmatian & Firefighter
Get a friend dress up as this cute duo! For the firefighter outfit just wear a black, red, or yellow dress and accessorize with a firefighter hat and suspenders. For the Dalmatian costume, you can DIY by getting a white top and skirt and drawing black spots on both. Put your hair in two pigtails to act as "ears" and draw a nose on your face with black eyeliner.
6. Breakfast at Tiffany's
For any of you girly girls, this is a classic yet unique idea. Dress up as the iconic Audrey Hepburn by wearing a black dress with heels and accessorize with all the pearls you can think of. Put your hair in a bun and you are good to go!
7. Clueless
Another classic idea from a classic movie! Channel your inner 90's with all the plaid, bright colors, and knee-high socks! For this costume, you'll need a plaid yellow skirt, white knee-high socks, a white tank top, and plaid yellow sweater or blazer.
8. Cheetah Girls
This is the most comfortable costume for sure. Get four of your girlfriends and dress up as the ICONIC cheetah sisters. All you'll need is four different colored sweat suits (pink, purple, yellow, and blue) and matching headbands for each. Make sure when you take your picture you copy their famous pose in their sweatsuits!
9. Mime
For this costume, all you'll need is black pants or shirt, a white and black striped shirt, black suspenders, and a black beret. You can even paint your face and recreate the classic mime makeup.
10. Scarecrow
This is definitely a cute idea that is very festive for the Halloween season! All you will need is a plaid shirt, jean overalls, brown boots, a straw hat, and eyeliner to recreate the stitches of a scarecrow along your lips.
