Last Minute DIY Halloween Costumes

If you're like me, you started planning your Halloween costume in September. If you're like pretty much everyone else on the planet, you probably didn't even think about it until you got a text invite to a costume party this weekend. For those of you in the latter, check out these easy DIY Halloween costumes that can be made from items in your closet or a quick trip to Goodwill. Now go pop some tags!

Betty Boop

Betty really doesn't require much work...A red dress and pumps plus gold jewelry is all you need. Extra points for dark curly hair, cat-eye makeup and a heart garter (you can craft one from ribbon and felt).

Clueless

Pair knee socks and Mary Janes with a yellow skirt and blazer and you're the perfect Cher. Even better with a bestie as Dionne.

Orange is the New Black

If you don't have a stylish orange jumpsuit, your brother's mechanic-wear will also do the trick...Or an orange tee and sweats. A white tee layered underneath adds to the affect. Lesbian lover optional.

Effie Trinket

With Catching Fire coming out in a few weeks, it's the perfect time for an Effie Trinket look. Pretty much any dress will work (puffy sleeves a plus). Just add a crazy wig and some flower pins (or make your own from tulle) and have fun with makeup. "May the odds be ever in your favor."

Miley Cyrus

Since I'm guessing you'd be a little cold in a spandex bikini, a nude dress will do the trick for this VMA Miley look. Any foam finger will work, or this one is only about $10 on Amazon. Princess Leah pigtails and superior twerking skills a must.
