The costume for this strong, independent woman is likely already in your closet! All you need is a blue collar shirt and a red bandana or scarf.

 

3. Arthur and DW

This year, you can throw it back to the awesome show, Arthur! To be Arthur, you just need a yellow shirt, maybe a white button up, glasses and some ears. For DW, it’s even more simple! You’ll need a pink dress, a white long-sleeve shirt and ears. The ears for both of them can be made by cutting out paper circles and taping them to a thin headband.

 

4. Bank Robber

For this easy costume, you’ll need a striped shirt, some black pants, a black beanie, some gloves and a mask. You can make the mask out of felt or buy it at any Halloween store. To be extra creative, make your own money bags or fake money!

 

5. Damian from Mean Girls

Got a blue hoodie and some sunglasses? Then, you can be Damian! This is a super fun, super easy costume that’ll reference your favorite movie. Just get the outfit together and then write ‘She doesn’t even go here!’ on a piece of paper.

 

6. Morton Salt Girl
