With Halloween coming up fast, now is the time to get your costume locked down so you’re not scrambling the day before to have something to wear. A Halloween costume is all about creativity, so knowing this, we’ve compiled some awesome easy ideas for you to try. From clever to funny, we hope these Halloween costumes make your night one to remember!

Rosie the Riveter Costume

Flex your “girl power” with this Rosie. All you need is a blue denim shirt, jeans, and a red and white polka dot bandana to complete the look!

Brawny Man

A simple yet effective costume that is instantly recognizable as the kind of paper towels. Grab a roll of Brawny paper towels, throw a red and black plaid shirt and some denim jeans, and you’re good to go.

Oreo

Perfect for couples looking to tag team their Halloween costumes. Why not go out as everyone’s favorite cookie? Say, the double-stuffed variety?

Hawaiian Punch

If you’re a sucker for good puns like me, this one is perfect for you. Throw on a Hawaiian shirt, put on an island straw hat and a colorful lei, and strap up some boxing gloves, and you got yourself a pretty sweet costume that’ll have people laughing all night.

Bubble Bath

No water needed that’s for certain. This adorable costume can be put together in under 30-minutes. Blow up some white balloons and tape them to your clothes, throw on a shower cap and grab a loofah. It’s time for a bubble bath.

Chick Magnet

This is a great one for couples. One person dressed up in a yellow dress with glued on feathers, while the other person dresses in all black with a glue on magnet and feathers to match attached to their outfit. Boom, a chick magnet.

French Kiss

Another punny get up that will definitely turn heads. All you need for this costume to work is some face paint, a striped shirt, a beret, and a loaf of bread. Just don’t get hungry!

Ron Burgundy

Stay Classy San Diego! This one is perfect for a night full of Ron Burgundy one liners and absurd behavior.

Buddy the Elf

Perfect for all you Christmas lovers, what better way to spread Halloween (Christmas?) cheer than to dress up as everyone’s favorite Elf.
