I seriously can't remember the last time I dressed up for Halloween. For sure, it was back when I was young and fun.
I do remember being Raggedy Ann, Wonder Woman, a Rockette, a bunny, Madonna, a farmer (don't ask-- Guess overalls were all the rage), a flapper, an angel, a dude, and (inexplicably) a member of a lady gang.
Not terribly creative.
You know what else isn't creative? Cats.
No doubt you will see a minimum of 13 people dressed as cats on this and every Halloween. Don't be that girl.
Finding a great costume doesn't have to be hard! Let's face it: Nobody's ever successfully recreated a Halloween makeup tutorial from YouTube anyway. So being a SnapChat filter, or a sparkly unicorn, or Harley Quinn, or that Dragon Queen from Game of Thrones is off the table.
Looking for costume inspiration? Never fear! Here are 7 EASY & FREE things I would be for Halloween, if I got dressed up for Halloween (which I don't).
ALL these things are just laying around my house, and probably yours too...
ROSÉ ALL DAY
Why? To appear cooler than I am
What you'll need:
- A pink top & joggers
- Metallic heels
- Pink lip gloss & polish
- Shades & other accessories
- Wine bottle & a wine glass
A STARBUCKS VAMPIRE FRAPPUCCINO
Why? To be trendy & cuter than a zombie
What you'll need:
- Tight black pants & a black top
- Leather jacket & boots
- Red lips, red nails, and a clutch
- A hair straightener
- A Starbucks cup
BETTY COOPER FROM RIVERDALE
Why? To be a retro icon that isn't Wonder Woman
What you'll need:
- A sweaterset (bonus if it's pink) & white pants
- A matching headband & ponytail
- Ballerina flats
- A hair curler
- A black lacy bra (for Dark Betty)
WOMAN LAUGHING WHILE EATING SALAD
Why? To seem like an ironic hipster
What you'll need:
- A gray sweater & jeans
- Cute flats
- Nail polish (I like Bitter Bitch by Tom Ford)
- A bowl & fork
- A nice salad
A FORMAL APOLOGY
Why? Because I'm punny like that
What you'll need:
- A fancy top & skirt (or dress)
- Black heels
- False lashes
- A sign that says "sorry"
A SUPERFAN
Why? Because I'm extremely lazy
What you'll need:
- A jersey & hat from your fave team
- Leggings
- Socks & sneakers
- Nail polish in your team's color for spirit fingers
- 2 pony tail holders for pigtails or braids
PIZZA RAT
Why? Because I can still use cat ears AND eat pizza
What you'll need:
- A gray sweater & black jeans
- Black boots
- Black lipstick & liner for eyes, whiskers & nose
- Cat/Rat ears
- Pizza (improvise if you don't have a slice)
So there you have it. 7 looks you probably already have that won't make you look just like everyone else this Halloween. Or at least not like a cat.
You're welcome.
