Halloween and spooky season are officially over. I feel like October was over in like two days. But nonetheless we were able to pull off some cute and (I think) creative last minute costumes for this past weekend.
Leggings | Booties | T-Shirt | Butterfly Hair Clips | Makeup
For our friend's last minute Halloween party my boyfriend and I wanted to spend little to no money for this. It was a cocktail themed party so we ended up spending more money on our cocktails then out costumes š (as it should be). I worked with what I already had in my closet and most importantly I wanted to be comfy! I have this pumpkin t-shirt from SheIn and thought..hmm this with faux leather leggings and a ton of glitter? PUMPKIN FAIRYšš§š¼♂️! I basically added a lot of glitter makeup and butterfly clips for my hair. Then at the dollar store I got a glow stick wand (every fairy needs a wand, duh) and I found these pumpkin glow in the dark bracelets there too! It was perfect. The cocktail I made to go with my costume was a "pumpkinrita" which was basically a spicy margarita with a glitter sugar rim and the pumpkin candies (these ones linked here) inside.
My boyfriends costume is the one I am the most proud of however. He was struggling on what to be and again the mindset was "why spend a lot of money?" So I thought about what he already had in his closet and what brings him joy. My boyfriend loves memes so I thought what if we print a bunch of memes and glue them to a shirt? Then we got deeper and said, "What if YOU were meme?" We knew we had something, but the remaining question was: Which meme? It had to be something everyone recognized and it had to be funny. I don't know what you call the meme where the guy is holding a cardboard sign that says something that is totally true and attacks everyone, but that's the meme he was. We made three cardboard signs that had hilarious sayings on them, but the reason we had one calling out our friend is because she used this exact meme in her invite where she said "no half-ass costumes" yet her herself was just a basic witch š. Then for his cocktail he was inspired by the Leonardo DiCaprio with the martini glass meme. In my opinion he had the best costume of the night. But neither of us had the best cocktails š¤¢š.
Sweater | Skirt | Shoes | Watch
Then for actual Halloween night it was my niece's first Halloween so the whole family got together and had a bonfire while we passed out candy. I thought of a very last minute costume which was a PokƩmon trainer! We always joke that my pet hamster is like my own Pikachu and I've always been obsessed with PokƩmon and Pikachu so it made sense! I wanted just one more item like a PokƩball or something so we went to Wal-Mart and I found this kids LED PokƩmon watch with the original 4 on the wrist band, it was too cute and for only $7 I had to have it. I wore this Pikachu sweater that was already in my closet along with a white tennis skirt and then I have this 90's Pikachu toy so the whole look just came together. Then I added my Pocket Pikachu to the look and it was complete!
I also knew my niece was going to be a bat so I quickly ran over to their house to complete the PokĆ©mon trainer look by catching my very own Zubat š„ŗ (IYKYK). Side note: To see her 12 days of Halloween go follow my SIL on TikTok @anakatsaris!
Even though these costumes were last minute and cost less than $10 to make, it was super fun to get a little creative and work with what we had already to make something work! I hope everyone had a fun and safe Halloween. Until next year š.
xoxo, Michele
