10 Last Minute DIY Costumes for Halloween

1. Sexy pirate Halloween costume 

For this first last minute Halloween DIY costume, I threw together a sexy pirate Halloween outfit. For this look, I combined a striped shirt with a head scarf, a corset belt, and fitted shorts. For the finishing touches, I added hoop earrings and a pair of boots.

2. Mime Halloween costume

For this second look, I created a fun mime Halloween costume, combining a striped shirt with a beret, black pants, a neck scarf, and suspenders. I’d also recommend looking up a tutorial for mime makeup to really pull this look together.

3. Hello Kitty costume

One of my favorite Halloween looks is this Hello Kitty costume! I thrifted a pair of white cat ears, pairing it with a red skirt that was already in my closet. I added a white t-shirt and white thigh-high socks. To accessorize the look, I added a red lunch box.

4. Scarecrow Halloween costume

For this easy, scarecrow Halloween costume DIY, I combined a straw hat with a plaid top and overalls. For the finishing touches, add craft straw to your pockets and the tops of your boots. Or, like me, simply cut a brown paper bag up into strips. 

5. Flapper Halloween costume 

For this fun flapper DIY look, I paired a fringe dress with a feather headband, fishnet tights, and long gloves. To accessorize, you could also add a rhinestone choker.

6. Fairy costume

To create this fabulous fairy costume, I started with a fringe dress and layered a corset and an off-shoulder top over it. To complete the look, I added a pair of fairy wings. 

7. Unicorn costume

I put together this quick and fun unicorn look by combining a horn headband with a fluffy pastel-colored jacket which I wore over a pastel-colored outfit. To complete the costume, I added some fun, holographic accessories. 

8. Galaxy girl costume

By combining metallic clothing with crystal tights, make-up jewels, and sparkly boots, I created this awesome galaxy girl costume. To bring the look together, I styled my hair in space buns. 

9. Wildcat costume

A cat costume is a Halloween classic. For this look, I paired an animal print dress with cat ears, a choker, and a lace bralette. If you're likely to get cold during your Halloween celebrations, add a fur coat to your costume. 

10. Survivor Halloween costume

This cool survivor Halloween costume is super easy to pull together. Simply combine a camo print dress with a matching parka jacket, a headband, and a pair of black boots.
