Today, I’m going to show you nine quick, last-minute Halloween costumes! All of these are super easy to do, so if you don’t feel like making a super intricate costume or you happen to be watching this a few days before Halloween, these costumes are perfect!


A lot of these items you probably already have, and if you don’t, they’re super cheap to come by, so these should work for everyone! Let’s get started.


Pig in a Blanket Costume

1. Pig in a Blanket Costume

All you have to do to make this costume is get some pig ears, and a pig nose, and carry around a blanket over your pink outfit—it’s as easy as that!


Not only is this costume super cute, but it’s also super comfy because you can carry a blanket around with you and it can get really cold during Halloween depending on where you live.

Pinterest Board Costume

2. Pinterest Board Costume

Another great costume idea is to be a Pinterest board. This one does involve a little bit of DIY work but it’s super easy and you can make the whole thing in around twenty minutes.


All you need to do is get a piece of brown foam and attach some pictures of Pinterest posts as well as the logo on top of the board, and then attach the ribbon on top so you can wear it around your neck.

Party Animal Costume

3. Party Animal Costume

This next costume is a Party Animal Halloween costume, which is once again, another costume pun.


All you need for this is some animal ears, a party hat, and a party outfit. This look is super fun because you can be something as basic as a cat while also being a little more original by turning it into a pun.

Got Milk Costume

4. Got Milk Costume

If you’ve ever seen one of those Got Milk? advertisements, this look is pretty much that but as a costume.


All you need to do is make a shirt that says Got Milk?, carry around a jug of milk with you, and then use some face paint to make a milk mustache.

Got Milk Costume

For the shirt, I just got a plain t-shirt and spelled out Got Milk? with some iron-on letters. Just iron them on and peel off the backing. It’s super easy to make, and I’m pretty sure no one else will have this costume.

Mime Costume

5. Mime Costume

Next up we have the classic mime costume. For this, you’re going to need some black pants, a black scarf, a striped shirt, as well as a beret and that’s it!


You probably already have most of these things. For the scarf, I just tied a piece of black ribbon around my neck and that was it. 

Barbie Costume

6. Barbie Costume

The next look is this DIY Barbie costume. All you need to do is wear a pink skirt, a shirt that says Barbie on it, and some pink lipstick. If you aren’t already a blonde, a blonde wig will also help!

For the shirt, I did another iron-on transfer with the Barbie logo onto a white crop top and that was it. 

Breakfast at Tiffany’s Audrey Hepburn costume

7. Breakfast at Tiffany’s Audrey Hepburn Costume

If you want to go for a classier Halloween costume, Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s is always a good option.


So, for this costume, you’re going to need a black dress, some fake pearls, black gloves, a tiara, and some black sunglasses.

Also, you can carry around a cup of coffee or a bagel or croissant, just to make sure people get the whole Breakfast at Tiffany’s reference. 

Medusa Costume

8. Medusa Costume

You can also be Medusa for Halloween. This is one of my favorites, and all you need for this costume is a white flowy dress, some gold jewelry, and some fake snakes to put in your hair.

Medusa Costume

This Medusa costume DIY is so simple. For your hair, just put it up in a clip and incorporate some braids, then just string the rubber snakes through your hair randomly. Throw on a bunch of gold jewelry, and it’s just a really fun costume to do. 

Dead You with a Gunshot Wound Costume

9. Dead You with a Gunshot Wound Costume

Last but not least, if you’re into something much scarier, you can be the dead version of yourself.


You can use eyelash glue to create the fake gunshot wound’s outer part. Fill it in with some black eyeshadow, drip some fake blood, and that’s it.
