As the end of October approaches, it becomes inevitable to ask oneself: What will I be for Halloween? And while the possibilities are endless, sometimes our mind makes them seem limited. But do not worry, if you have a *witch’s block,* here are a couple of easy, affordable, and cute costume ideas -and how to make them- that I did this Halloweek.
- Merida Monday (Brave)
What you need:
- An emerald green dress
- brown/black flats
- A fake bow and arrow (optional)
- Curl your hair
- Jo March Tuesday (Little Women)
What you need:
- A white long sleeve collared shirt
- A black sweater vest or a sleeveless black shirt
- A long dark gray skirt
- A dark gray blazer
- A black ribbon to make a tie
- Black ankle boots
- Curl your hair, and put it up in a low messy bun, leaving tendrils on each side of your face
- 70s Wanda Wednesday (WandaVision)
What you need:
- An orange/brown/yellow/red short dress with wide sleeves (Like in the 70s)
- Brown or Black knee-high boots
- Part your hair in the middle and straighten it
- Anya Taylor-Joy Thursday
What you need:
- Navy blue short dress with short sleeves
- Gold buttons to add to the dress
- A white belt
- White knee-high boots or long white socks with black shoes
- Large white buttons to make earrings with them
- Divide your hair into a front and back section. Tease the back part to give it volume, and pin it all to the back. Do a side part on the front section and pin both strands of hair to the back of your head, covering the back section you just pinned
- Elizabeth Swann Friday (Pirates of the Caribbean)
What you need:
- A white nightgown with long, puff sleeves
- A gold necklace
- Slippers or white flats
- Curl your hair. Part your hair into a front and back section, the front being larger. Tease the front section to give it volume, and pin it back. Twist the pinned strand, tease it, and create a high messy bun. Take two little strands of hair from the front to frame your face
There you have it. I honestly had so much fun recreating these, and I hope you and your friends do, too. Remember to have fun and stay safe this Halloween.
