"While I truly love all the prep work that goes into Halloween, nothing beats the thrill of pulling a costume together with stuff right out of your closet. I don't think it had even occurred to me until I was well into college that some people just go into a store and buy a costume right off a rack. All of my Halloween costumes were last-minute and put together with things I already owned and honestly, as a mom of three girls who have been planning their costumes since mid-July, it's time to go back to that girl."
"Of course you can always turn yourself into a witch or a skeleton or a pumpkin with hardly any effort, but this is a list of super easy, super last-minute, and super comfortable Halloween costume ideas. From Phoebe Buffay to Catwoman (trust me, that might be the coziest idea on this whole list), there are tons of great Halloween costumes to put together with items out of your closet. If you've got black leggings, you can literally make most of these."
"How great are Kat's looks in Casper? Whether you're thinking of her white lacy dress from the Halloween party or one of her more 'normal' grunge '90s outfits, there are several options. But I think the must-have accessory is a white balloon decorated to look like Casper, floating gently behind you. Tie it to your waist with a long ribbon and you've got your friendly ghost with you all night long."
Last-minute Halloween costumes can be assembled from items already in the closet, avoiding store-bought options. Many classic TV mom or female character looks translate easily with basic pieces like black leggings, white lacy dresses, grunge '90s clothes, and wardrobe staples. Simple accessories such as a white balloon decorated like a ghost can elevate a basic outfit into a recognizable character. Emphasize comfort and creativity over spending by repurposing work clothes and remote-era staples for cozy, memorable costumes.
