5 Easy Costumes for Halloweekend 2017

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

It’s that time of year again! The time when everyone is frantically searching for a cute, easy, and affordable costume for Halloween. Luckily, we’re here to help. Check out the costumes below for every kind of collegiette this Halloween. 

1. The Girl Scout

What You’ll Need:

This costume is certainly creative enough that you’ll probably be the only one wearing it. Aside from the sash, which easy to find with a quick Google search, you most likely already have most of these items in your closet. If you really want to steal the show, bring some girl scout cookies with you (I suggest Samoas). 

2. Boo from Monsters Inc.

What You’ll Need:

While Lilo and Stitch get a lot of attention every time Halloween roles around, I feel like the beloved characters from Monsters Inc. are forgotten. This year, in honor of everyone’s favorite monsters, throw your hair up in some pigtails and dance like it’s still 2001.

3. The Boxer

What You’ll Need:

If you’re feeling like a badass, a boxer costume is perfect for you. One perk is that you can knockout all the haters. Ka-chow!

4. KISS Band Member

What You’ll Need:

If you’re looking to channel your inner rebel, you should dress up as a member of the famous band, KISS. All you really need to do to successfully pull off this costume is throw on some eyeliner, stick out your tongue, and rock the air guitar.

5. The Life Guard

What You’ll Need:

This costume is a classic. Sure, there might be a lot of people wearing this come Halloween, but if done right, you will look like you stepped out of Baywatch. 

 

Have a happy and safe Halloweekend, Collegiettes!
