If your in need of a costume and are way too sick of the Party City, Teatrocentro, Hot Topic selections, Her Campus UPR has got you covered! Check out these fashion tips for easy last-minute halloween costumes on our first edition of DIY. 

#1: Mouse or Prisoner

 

How can you not love this outfit? I mean, the dress and the shoes for both the mouse and the prisoner…it’s to die for. The convenient thing about these outfits is that you can wear them more than just one night. I have always said that classy is the new provocative… So, this year make a change and forget about those tight leotards or pajamas and try a dress instead. 

#2 Classy or Hipster Minnie Mouse

Transform your favorite character into a Fashion Icon by mixing together your favorite pieces. Polka dots are easy to find in any retail store, and you know what the best part is? They never go out of style. Put it together with some pumps and you’ve got yourself a hot and classy Minnie Mouse. On the flip side, if you use the jeans and the red sneakers, you will be one hell of a hipster. 

#3 Greek Goddess

 

Chiffon dress, gladiator flats, and whatever ancient jewelry you can find in your pile of accessories, and you’ve got yourself a greek goddess. It’s a fun and classic costume, very easy to do it yourself.

#4 Mermaid

Going to an elegant costume party? Mermaid tails are very sophisticated and you can find them in so many clothing stores. The bustier shows your sexy side and nothing screams mermaid more than seashell jewelry.

#5 Pilot or Sailor

Do you like airplanes or boats? Edgy or classy? It doesn’t matter where you get your ideas, what’s important is how you put everything together. Your killer style will be key in the process of mixing and matching outfits. 

#6 The Explorer

Life on this tropical island is definitely exquisite, but finding the perfect outfit that fits for your halloween party can be quite the challenge. If you want to learn more about the DIY section on HCUPR, stay tuned for my posts!
