It’s almost Halloween! If you need a costume in a pinch, here are six ideas using items you probably already have in your closet…
1. Tourist. Some combo of shorts, a brightly-colored tacky shirt, socks with sandals, a straw hat or visor, sunglasses, a camera, and sunscreen on your nose.
2. Lumberjack. A flannel with some jeans and a beanie. Bonus points if your kids have a toy ax lying around.
3. Mummy. Just need some of those fabric bandages to wrap around you. You can also tear old white T-shirts into strips and use those.
4. Bank robber. Black leggings, a black and white striped shirt, a little black mask, and bonus points if you have some kind of loot bag.
5. Bob Ross. Button-down shirt, jeans, and you can make a small paint palette out of cardboard. Bonus points if you have an afro wig.
6. Barbie. It’s one of THE trending costumes this year. Get the look by dressing in anything pink with high heels, or brightly-colored workout clothes, tube socks, and rollerblades.
