Halloween on a Budget

Tomorrow one of the largest holidays for college students will be here: Halloween. Some love the holiday and look forward to piecing together an intricate costume, while others may like to take a more simple approach. For all of the ladies that like to keep it simple, I put together a guide that will help to utilize pieces you already own or pieces that you can borrow from friends. This way you’ll be able to put together something quickly with little to no expense!

Tourist (floral top, high-waisted shorts, Keds, fanny pack, sunglasses, sun hat)

Carmen Sandiego (floppy hat, red coat or blazer, black dress, black boots)

Gossip Girl character (plain button up, plaid skirt, knee socks, headband, Oxfords or flats)

Military (black skinny jeans, army green shirt or jacket, camo shirt, combat boots)

Different pieces can be swapped around to personalize the look, almost any basic piece from your closet can be used for different costume ideas. Another important note is that despite the stigma that girls should wear minimal clothing on Halloween, it's really all up to you and what you are comfortable with. Shorts can be swapped for jeans or you can wear a skirt or dress minus tights, it is really dependent on what you feel like rocking for the weekend!
