1. Euphoria
The TV series Euphoria sparked a pop culture phenomenon in the fashion and beauty industries this past year. Dress up as your favorite character or simply take inspiration from the show’s aesthetic! Shimmering shades of purple, fashion athleisure, glitter, and gem stone make-up looks all can give off “Euphoria Vibes” and be a super stylish costume this October.

This infamous 90s film has sparked costume inspiration for years and never seems to lose its touch! Stay classic with a plaid mini skirt, knee high socks, and old phone to top off the look. Dress as Cher and Dee for a duo look or add in Tai to make it perfect for your group of three!

Pirate costumes are another perfect example of being easy if you want it to be, or epic with the right amount of effort. Pair your favorite pair of black pants with a loose white blouse and a head scarf and boom— you’re a pirate! If you feel like going the extra mile, add some gold medallion accessories, an eye patch, and a faux parrot for your shoulder!

8. Vampire
Another very iconic Halloween costume is the vampire. This look embodies the spirit of Halloween like no other, especially if you really get into character. The words spooky, sexy, and mysterious can best describe this costume. Add hints of red with blood stained lips, eye shadow, or even red eye contacts if you are feeling bold. Dress in an all black outfit to give off that dark and scary vibe.
