This October, there have been handfuls of Halloween parties and activities going on. I have seen a lot of amazing costumes so far, from movie characters to celebrities, it has been clear that everyone definitely did their Halloween homework and prep. With Halloween night coming up, I am sure the costumes will be on point. With the spooky season in mind, here are my top 5 perfect costumes I have seen and would recommend. Whether you’re aiming for spooky, iconic, or downright creative, these costumes are guaranteed to turn heads at any Halloween party.
1. Magic Mike: This funny but cute costume is super easy to DIY and sure to make for fun memories. Throw on some mens boxers, baggy sweats, and a bra or tank top and you have your costume! Add some accessories, a ball cap, some fake dollar bills, for better effect.
2. Disney Princess: This costume idea gives you a lot of flexibility considering the wide selection of Disney Princesses that exists. Tiana, Cinderella, and Sleeping Beauty are just some of the ones I have seen on campus. The look usually consists of a crown, a skirt, and a body corset that is in the colors of the Princess’s dress with some other fun accessories.
3. Britney Spears: This costume has a lot of versatility, seeing as Britney has so many unique wardrobes. From “Slave for U” to “Oops I Did It Again,” with any of these costumes, you are sure to get many compliments.
4. Vampire: This costume is very timeless and versatile. This year I have seen it done with black corset tops, black pants, red capes, fake fangs, and fake blood smears. According to Scottie Andrew with CNN, a Vampire was among the top 20 Halloween costumes in the year 2022. This costume is edgy yet cute, and definitely gets the job done!
5. Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader: This costume is my personal favorite that I have been wanting to do myself. The costume comes in a set online, and the blue and white stars are bound to make you look great. Throw in some fun cheering poms and you are set for a fun night out!
Get ready to turn heads at this year’s Halloween festivities with these costume ideas! Let your imagination run wild and have a spooktacular time celebrating in style!
