Halloween Costumes from Your Closet

If you’re reading this on 10/30 when it comes out, I have the perfect post for you! I’m sharing my easy Halloween Costumes from your closet! These looks will use pieces you probably have in your closet with accessories you can grab easily!

Halloween is truly my favorite holiday but as I get older you don’t really know if you’ll need a costume. Of course you don’t want to be stuck with nothing at the last second so this post is for that. These are affiliate links so I do make a small commission if you purchase!

Cat

pants- shop here

bodysuit- shop here

cat ears- shop here

This is probably the easiest to throw together. Whether you’re going for black leggings, jeans or leather pants you definitely have the outfit to put this together. I’d pair any of those pants with a black long sleeve top and black boots. Grab a set of cat ears and add some whiskers with eyeliner and you’re good to go!

Princess

crown- shop here

I think this is another easy one but you might want to double check you have a dress that works for this. You can really do like a generic princess which means you really just need a flowy dress. Sundresses would work great for this but you might just need to layer up if you’re going trick or treating. The only real accessory you need is a crown!

Devil

Unlike the other two, red is like the specific color you need to get this point across. You can use the same pair of black pants you used for the cat look but throw on some sort of red top for this. Maybe a red workout tank if you’re wearing leggings! Again, you can just pair this with a devil horn headband and you have the easiest look put together.

I hope these Halloween Costumes from your closet really gave you some inspo! Most of these pieces you already have in your closet so it should make putting together these looks easy! Let me know if you liked this post! You can check out more Halloween posts here!

Halloween Party Ideas that you Have to Try

The count down to Halloween is now in the single digits which means my annual Halloween Night party is almost here! I love hosting a Halloween night party because I live in a really high traffic area for Trick or Treaters and houses that give out candy. We have my little cousins and family all come for dinner and then we trick or treat and finish the night with dessert and handing out candy. Now my parties aren’t too crazy but everyone always has a great time so I’m sharing some halloween party ideas!

Decorations:

Carving pumpkins isn’t only fun it also provides for some great decor. I love to carve the pumpkins prior to trick or treating so that we can display them for all to see. I also think getting a cute banner that says like “Happy Halloween” or “Trick or Treat” is a great addition. Target has some really cute ones! Having the perfect table setting also sets for a great vibe. I like to get the tougher table clothes so that I can reuse them year to year, especially if I really love the design.

Food:

In my house, it is a tradition to have “bat balls and worms” for Halloween dinner. It might just be spaghetti and meatballs to some but it’s definitely an easy meal to throw together. It’s also awesome to have ready when your guests arrive but leave it on the stove while you’re out trick or treating. You get to come back to an easy meal to reheat. For dessert, cupcakes are always my go to. I made these adorable mummy cupcakes by using white frosting and a straight icing tip. I added these candy eyes and they are a total hit!

Games:

Making sure your kids are entertained all night might seem hard but having games on hand to keep them busy. Target has an entire aisle with some really cute games. I grabbed this pumpkin bean bag toss game and the kids absolutely love it. I also have bingo and a pin the skull head on the skull. All of the games fit the Halloween theme perfectly and were really inexpensive. They’re great to reuse year after year and are always a crowd favorite!

I hope that these halloween party ideas help you get inspired for your own party. Halloween is the best time of year and I seriously love the spooky season. Let me know if you have any of your own favorite halloween party ideas in the comments below!
