The date is approaching, and I'm already seeing a healthy amount of people scrambling to find last minute Halloween costumes. Even if you were living in the darkest of holes near the South Pole, you would still be filled with awareness that Halloween is quickly approaching. As always, I'm here to help!
At my job, we have the freedom of dressing up on Halloween if it happens to fall on a weekday. This year (as you know) it does, and this means I must look impressive. For those of you who also have jobs that allow you (and even encourage you) to dress up but are having trouble making a decision - fear not! It will be my job to bring you a plethora of easy and exciting ideas to make your Halloween costume sure to stand out.
This doesn't mean I've forgotten those who have to abide by a stricter dress code. I also put together some inspiration sets for those who are interested for dressing in the "spirit" of the season but can't be so obvious about it.
Today, I have our first costume idea - Glam Rocker!
I'll confess that many of my sets center around a single piece. When I spot a deal that stands out, I can't ignore it! With this costume, it was the leggings. For only $6, this is a great piece to spring for even if you never wear them again. I often try to buy pieces for costumes that I'm going to use again, especially if they're expensive. With almost every other piece in this set, you can wear it again. In case your fellow party goers or co-workers can't tell you're a rocker chick of sorts, I've also thrown in a cheap microphone prop (only $3.99 at Party City).
Half the battle of pulling off this look is the styling. In my mind, the headband model has it right. No need to have a complex hairdo for this outfit. The make up is a bit more tricky, though. Bold colors are key. I've chosen gold and purple, but you could probably choose to do a few different combinations. The bolder and brighter, the better. If you're not sure how to pull this part of the look off, start here. Remember, Google and YouTube are your friends. Take advantage of the tutorials and inspiration pictures you can find there.
I hope this was helpful for those of you out there who might be stalled with their own Halloween creativity. Let me know if you have a costume you'd like to see featured on the blog for the rest of the week. I'll be bringing you fresh ideas all the way up until Halloween!
Until next time!
