Can you believe Halloween is almost here? The last year has gone by so quickly! Before you head to the Halloween store, here are some ideas for repurposing items you already have to make your own costume. Here are some DIY Halloween Costumes that only require a trip to your closet.
Rosie the Riveter
Rosie the Riveter is a cultural icon of the United States, representing the American women who worked in factories and shipyards during World War II. Now Riveter is the quintessential image of girl power! Not only is this costume iconic, it’s also very easy to throw together (especially if you are doing this last minute). YOU CAN DO IT! 😉
What you’ll need:
Denim Shirt
Red Bandanna
Make Up: Cat Eye + Red Lipstick
Hair up in a bun
Big muscles (Just a perk) 😉
Laverne and Shirley
Here’s an easy one for you and your best girlfriend – the legendary 70’s duo, Laverne and Shirley. These gals were #RelationshipGoals back when hashtags were just pound signs.
What you’ll need:
For Laverne
black shirt
white cardigan
For that signature L: black cording + hot glue gun (or needle & thread)
black scarf
pencil skirt
loafers
For Shirley
V-neck sweater
white button-down shirt
matching scarf

Mary Poppins
Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down…and it’s not much harder to assemble this classic Disney costume. Everyone adores the Disney film, so your costume will surely be a hit. You’ll be able to whip this costume up faster than you can say supercalafragalisticexpialadoshus!

Emoji
Let’s be honest, Emojis are simply apart of our language in 2016, and I think they’ll be sticking around. This one is a bit more crafty than grabbing clothes out of your closet, but should not take too much time. You can finally share your favorite emoji face with everyone who passes by! 😉😜😬
