College Girl Costume Ideas
Every year I find myself on Pinterest before halloween trying to come up with something that I won’t find at every halloween store. Many of these costumes are diy ideas and honestly those are the best. If you’re looking just days before the holiday and really have no idea what to dress as, some of these ideas could save you. You won’t realize how easy you can make a costume look great!
In my college halloween years, most of my costumes were diy or adding on to an outfit I made for a rave. If I’m giving my best halloween advice, try collecting rave wear, festival wear and random costume pieces throughout the years, then just add a top, wings or a different accessory to change what you’re going for. That’s honestly what has gotten me through each halloween and I still feel like my outfits stand out. Another year, a better look!
