5 Halloween Costumes To Buy This Season That Aren't Super Tacky


Don’t Hide Behind a Mask This Year

Halloween is only a few short weeks away, and that means it’s time for costumes! Whether you’re handing out candy this year or headed to a Halloween party, it’s important to look the part. We’re here to explore a few options that anyone can pull off, all without a ton of money, and all without the kitsch.

1. Your Favorite Character

At the end of the day, nothing’s better than dressing up as your favorite character. One of the best things about this option is that you can tailor it to your budget and your style! Going as Ted Lasso? It can be anything from a pair of shorts and a whistle to a full-blown mustache and outfit.

2. A Horror Movie Villain

What’s Halloween without a few frights, huh? We’ve been blessed with some seriously scary films over the years, leaving you options from possessed children to oddly hilarious clowns. You can also don a mask and go as classic characters like Ghostface or Leatherface.

3. Classic Vampire

Speaking of classics, you really can’t beat the traditional vampire. The reason we love this one so much is that it gives you a chance to dress up! Sure, you can spend a hundred dollars on a costume, or you can make your own at home with a set of fangs and a fancy suit.

4. Famous Musicians 

Not everyone’s into Halloween, but they’re forced to dress up anyway. A good workaround is dressing up like your favorite musician. Even the greats like Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash didn’t wear more than black outfits or simple coats, so all you need is a guitar and a pair of sunglasses!

5. Beanie Babies

Do you have a baby or a furbaby at home? Beanie Baby costumes let them in on the fun and don’t require more than a handmade sign! While you can dress up like teddy bears, you can also wear the telltale heart and call it a day.
