From the The spookiest of holidays is only a week away. Are you ready? series
Halloween is nearly here. If you haven’t decided what you’re wearing yet, there’s no need to panic. These easy east costumes can be pulled together in a flash.
1. Daria Morgendorffer
2. Stranger Things Eleven
Still thinking about that season of "Stranger Things" you binged in three days? This Eleven costume is easy to pull together with a Peter Pan collar dress and a navy blue windbreaker.
3. Wednesday Addams
Wednesday Addams has always been a favorite choice among costume DIYers. With the release of Netflix’s new series, it’s even more relevant this year.
4. Instagram Filter
If you’re celebrating Halloween with your better-half this year, try this easy couple’s costume like @lieskabeauty. All you’ll need are matching outfits, similar hairstyles (or a cheap blonde wig), some handmade signs and jute cord.Â
5. Indiana Jones
Spending a lot of money on a costume you’ll only wear one day a year can feel a lot like buying yet another ugly bridesmaid dress. This Indian Jones costume from @itsjessakuhduh is a great example of how to pull together a costume from items you already have in your closet.
6. Carrie
There are few horror movie scenes more iconic than Carrie covered in pigs' blood at the prom. Thrift a prom dress (or use one of those aforementioned ugly bridesmaid dresses), and drench yourself in fake blood to get this look.
7. Zombie Family
Want a great group costume for your friends or family? Steal this undead outfit idea from @ministylehacker. Shred up some old clothes, use coffee grounds for dirt, and whip up some fake blood using three parts corn syrup, one part water and red food coloring.
8. Pumpkin
This DIY pumpkin outfit is the perfect truly last-minute costume idea. Pull on a cozy orange sweater, and add some creative jack-o’-lantern makeup. If you have extra time, craft some leaves with felt, and attach them to a green headband.
9. Reggie from Rocket Power
This DIY Reggie costume from @cookiecorp_ is pure nostalgia. Just be prepared to spend the night doing the woogity handshake if you try this Rocket Power Halloween costume.
10. Bubble Tea
This adorable bubble tea costume only requires some construction paper, a paper towel tube and a dress in the color of your favorite flavor, whether that’s taro or matcha.
