Last Minute Halloween Costumes 2.0

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

We all love Halloween – it’s the one night a year when we can let out our inner child and get really excited about playing dress-up. Unfortunately, unlike during the years of trick-or-treating with your best neighborhood pal and eating Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups until you felt sick, this year you probably didn’t plan an amazing, creative outfit months in advance. We get it, you have all the halloween spirit but none of the time.
