5 Fun, Easy, (and Warm!) Last Minute Halloween Costumes! 

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Susqu chapter.

 

Halloween is right around the corner and, if you’re like me, your countdown has been set since September! But in case you don’t have your Halloween costumes lined up for the next five years, this article is for you! Here are 5 fun and easy, and most importantly warm, Halloween costume ideas! 

An Egg.

This costume is super easy! Just go out and get a white hoodie or sweatshirt, or if you have a long sleeve white shirt that you could layer with a white tee on top, and then you can either iron on a yellow-orange circle or just tape/glue a piece on. You can get cheap shirts and even crewneck sweaters at some craft stores along with the transfer paper or construction paper if you need any. For the rest of the outfit you can just wear black leggings and whatever comfy shoes you want!

Baby’s First Birthday 

 

Chances are you probably have a onesie laying around, and if you don’t, just use a matching pajama set. Once you have that go out get a birthday hat, a bib, and a rattle, throw on your slippers and revel in the fact that you’ll be warm and cozy all night!

When Life Gives You Lemons 

 

Like the egg costume, all you need for this is a white sweatshirt (or layered shirts) and just write “Life” on the top (you can do this with sharpie.) Then get a small basket and some lemons, real or fake, and hand them out to people!

Social Media Feed 

 

All you need for this costume is to wear all black and then go to the dollar store and get some ribbon, or string, and a piece of poster board! Go online and print out some funny tweets, one big picture from Instagram with a caption, or even some Facebook status updates. Just line up your 

feed on the poster board and you’re good to go! Bonus points if you make all the posts Halloween related!

A Pineapple 

 

Put on black leggings, get a yellow long sleeve top (you can get one from a local craft store for cheap!), paint, draw or iron on black Vs, and then get a cute green banana and tie it up in your hair and you’re good to go! You can really do this with any fruit or vegetable of your choice.
