Last Minute Halloween Costume Inspo
Halloween is THIS WEEKEND! Can you believe it?! If you're looking for a few last minute Halloween costumes, I've put together a few costumes I've worn using primarily what I had on hand plus a few handmade items incase you really feel like going for it over the next 2 days.
- Roman Bacchanalia: an extra bedsheet with a few stitches thrown in for draping. The headpiece was borrowed from a friends faux plant.
- Sashimi: a white dress I already owned (the rice) and a pillow inside an orange t-shirt (the fish) tied around the waist with a black scarf (seaweed). Some white scrap felt and leftover take away chopsticks glued to a hair clip for some added detail!
- Vincent Van Gogh: an old beach hat and tube of orange lipstick did the bulk of the heavy lifting, but a blue blazer and some fresh sunflowers certainly helped pull it all together.
- Gnome: this one was all bits and pieces of other costumes I had. An old winter hat, an apron from Oktoberfest, a few pieces of a fairy costume, and old vintage purse. This is from Halloween 2015, a year I almost didn’t dress up at all. At the last minute I threw this together in about 10 minutes and went out, proving you don’t have to reinvent the wheel every year.
- If you really feel like hurrying up to hand make something for this year, you can likely use what you have and still be spooky. The last 2 photos are how I utilized the same dress pattern 2 years in a row!
