With the first end of Halloweekend starting tonight and the second less than a week away, I can’t be the only person panicking about what they are going to be for Halloween now that Amazon officially gives a “getting here after Halloween” shipping disclaimer. So, here are some cute last-minute Halloween costumes you can find in your closet!
The three blind mice: You're gonna need to recruit two other people for this; but if you have a black top, black pants, some black shoes and sunglasses you’re set! Next, you have to pull out your DIY skills and use some old Amazon packages and a headband to make your mice ears! I can confirm this costume is cute and late-minute tested – I made it in about an hour freshman year!
Princess: If you have a cute dress and some cute shoes, you’re pretty much set for this costume! All you’ll need to do is either mass text all your friends for a tiara or take a quick trip to Spirit Halloween for a cheap crown!
Frat boy: A classic, honestly. Funny, cute and everyone knows what you are. Put on your most oversized flannel or t-shirt and some baggy shorts or khakis with some loafers or beat up Converse. Add a backwards hat and you are ready to hit the town as a frat boy who’s definitely NOT directly inspired by the members of AKPsi.
Canisius superfan: If anyones says they can’t pull this off, they are lying. With the amount of free apparel Canisius gives us, anyone can put on their Canisius beanie from Winter Welcome Week, their sweatshirt from Griffmas, those (surprisingly nice) sweatpants from Welcome Week 2023, some socks from Winter Welcome Week, and if you have them, your Canisius crocs. You're now officially Canisius’ biggest fan.
Your classic trilogy of last minute costumes – angel, devil and black cat: Choose any one of your all-white, all-red or all-black outfits and the corresponding headband, and you've got just about the easiest costume there is. It’s best to pull out your DIY skills, but this time to whip up a halo, devil horns or cat ears, but again, I won’t frown upon a trip to Spirit Halloween for these items.
Grandma/Grandpa: Put on your cutest cardigan or vintage sweater, some khaki pants or jeans, and some chunky sneakers. Practice pretending your joints are creaking every time you move and perfect your best “Back in my day...” speech, then you are ready to hit the streets of Halloweekened having aged about 50 years.
For all of you out there who were stressing about what you were going to wear this weekend, I hope this helped! If you see the Features team dressed as any of these because we forgot about our Halloween costumes, no you didn’t.
