My top 5 Halloween Costume Options

This post may contain affiliate or brand partner links. Read our full disclosure here.

So… I don’t dress up for Halloween. Mostly because I have no where to go. This year I fully plan on hiding in a back bedroom with the lights off and all the candy 😉

But if I were to get dressed up and go somewhere… these would be the costumes I’d be taking inspiration from!

 

I gotta say, this is definitely my favorite! Parties for Pennies came up with a BRILLIANT costume. Not to mention that is pretty much free. And she has another clever idea for this year! Definitely worth checking out!

 

I love this Candy Corn dress from I’m Your Perfect (etsy shop). Mostly cause its cute as heck AND because I could DIY this one pretty quickly 🙂

 

Who doesn’t remember the HamBurgler? This brings back a ton of child hood memories! Like that time… well… never mind 😉 Jessica from What I Wore did a FAB job on this one!

 

If there was ever any chance at all that I could convince my husband to dress up (a snowball has a better chance in hell) I’d want him to dress up as Bert! I’d make such a charming Mary Poppins. And I would drive him crazy singing “A spoonful of Sugar” All. Night. Long. I’m definietly in love with this one from Keiko Lynn

 

Last but not least is the Flapper costume! You really can’t go wring with this classic! Course the only thing I have that is even remotely “flappery” is the pearls. Ehow has a ton of tips on how to pull together a great flapper costume!

 

Now if someone wants to invite me to a Costume party, I’ve at least got my ideas narrowed down 😉
