DIY Halloween Costumes

Halloween is just about here, but don’t fret if you’re still without a costume! There’s no need to panic-shop for pricey outfits when you can pull off these last-minute DIY looks, inspired by KISS and imPRESS nail designs, with items you likely already have at home. From cuddly to creepy, here are five stylish and easy-to-create costumes that will make you the hit of any Halloween party!

Tip: You can head to your favorite haunts, like Target, Walgreens, Walmart, Rite Aid, Ulta or Amazon to find for your Halloween faves.

1: Stuffed Animal

Unleash your inner child and become a life-sized stuffed animal! This costume is not only adorable but also incredibly cozy. Start with an oversized, fluffy onesie in a pastel color (think pink, blue, or lavender) and add some cute details like fabric ears, a little tail, or even safety-pinned plush toys to your outfit for extra fluff. The key here is to accessorize think oversized bows, a collar with a cute tag, and some fuzzy slippers. Bonus points if you carry around a small stuffed animal as your “mini-me.”
Pro Tip: Use makeup to draw rosy cheeks and a heart-shaped nose for that extra-cuddly look!

2: Clown

Forget the scary clowns—this year, it’s all about a fun and fashionable twist. Mix playful elements with vintage style for a charming look that’s more whimsical than terrifying. Start with brightly colored clothes: layer a polka-dot blouse under striped suspenders, or pair a tulle skirt with a bold, ruffled top. Add a colorful bow tie and knee-high socks for a vintage circus vibe. For the finishing touch, do some simple clown makeup—think a red nose, exaggerated lashes, and a heart-shaped lip.
Pro Tip: If you’re feeling extra crafty, create a ruffle neck piece out of an old fabric scarf for a more theatrical effect.

3: Spider Witch

What do you get when you combine two Halloween classics? The Spider Witch, of course! Start with your typical witch costume basics—black dress, pointy hat, and boots. Then, take it up a notch with some DIY spider web accessories. Use white or silver yarn to create “webs” across your outfit and drape fake spiders on the hat, shoulders, and skirt. A smoky eye makeup look and dark lipstick will give you that extra mystical touch.
Pro Tip: Add some sparkle to the “webs” with glitter spray or stick-on gems to give the look a magical twist!

4: Alien

Channel your inner extraterrestrial fashionista with this simple but otherworldly costume. The goal is to look futuristic and out-of-this-world. Start with shiny or metallic clothing—silver leggings, a holographic top, or a sequined dress. Use body glitter or metallic face paint for a glowing effect, and top it off with space buns or teased hair sprayed with colored hairspray. Antenna headbands are easy to make with a plain headband, pipe cleaners, and small foam balls.
Pro Tip: Apply some glow-in-the-dark body paint for an added “alien glow” effect when the lights go out!

5: Vampire

You can never go wrong with a classic vampire costume, and it’s easier to pull off than you think. Start with an all-black outfit—anything from a dress to skinny jeans and a leather jacket will do. Add a dramatic cape (which you can easily make from a black scarf or fabric), and don’t forget the iconic vampire makeup: pale foundation, dark eye makeup, and of course, fake blood dripping from the corners of your mouth.
Pro Tip: Style your hair in slicked-back waves or add temporary hair color spray in a deep red or jet black for a gothic finish.

Halloween doesn’t have to be a stress-fest. With these simple DIY costumes, you’ll be ready to embrace the spooky season in style. So dig through your closet, grab some face paint, and get creative—because the best costumes are always the ones that come from a bit of imagination and a lot of fun!
