Easy DIY Costume Ideas for Halloween 2021

According to a popular Celtic legend on Halloween night, not only the spirits of the dead, but all kinds of entities from the spiritual realms could roam the Earth. Did you know the creators of this celebration used  masks and disguises to flee from the ghosts? They followed this ritual, motivated by fear of spirits and the dark. 

This is how Halloween became a tradition till this day, but we have given a more fun and exciting approach to this date. We use it as a driver to stimulate our creativity and spend time with those we love. From the spooky decorations, to the endless sweets and outrageous costumes, Halloween is for sure one of the best holidays of the year. 

So the perfect time has come to get spooky and begin prepping a head turning look  for October 31st. We get it- time tends to eat us up, leading us to look for a last minute  costume. Yet we still desire to astonish the crowd. The intention is to reinvent ourselves without the need to invest hundreds of dollars. Here are our top 10 Halloween costume ideas for 2021.

People will not be able to take their eyes off of you when they see this look, and yes! Your only option will be to tell them "why are you so obsessed with me?” Just like Regina to Janis. 

You can easily find this outfit in your closet, especially the skirt, the bag and the sweater. You can go DIY with the shirt and write the quote by hand with an inexpensive fabric marker.  This look would not be complete without the iconic initial necklace  Regina wears throughout the whole movie.
