Top 10 DIY Halloween Costumes AND the Vinca Accessories to Wear with them

9. "This Is Fine" Meme
Everyone is feeling this right now. Pop on your puppy dog onesie, rip that tiny hat off of your kid's plush teddy bear, make some flames out of construction paper and double stick tape them onto you. Ta-da! Pair with my Sarah's Scribbles Brain on Fire Necklace. This style is also available as earrings.
 
8. Purple Rain (Cloud)
If you just want to be a rain cloud, that's okay too.  I don't actually know how she did this, but you can totally peek her tutorial online for info. Pair with any of my Baby Rain Cloud Earrings OR my Lighting Bolt Earrings. Those glow under black light!
7. "Life Gives You Lemons"
Now THIS is super easy. If you don't have a yellow dress, borrow one from a pal or stop by your favorite thrift store. Also thrift a small wooded basket if you don't have one too. Make a final trip to the grocery store to pickup some lemons. (Make a tasty simple syrup with those lemons later!) Don't forget to make a quick Life name tag with your persona for the evening. Pair with my Cherry Stud Earrings with Crystal Berries. My XL Cherry Earrings are out of stock.

 6. Cat Lady
Raid your child's toys for plush cats and safety pin them on yourself. You're welcome!
Pair with ANY of my cat accessories. There's SO much to choose from.

5. Freudian Slip
You probably have a slip or a slip dress, right? Write FREUD on a piece of paper and tape it to yourself. Simplicity at its finest. Pair with my XL Banana earrings. 

4. Copy Cat
A tech-friendly costume and also cat-related, bonus! If you have a cat onesie, even better! If not, just wear all-black for ease. Grab some cat ears if you like. Draw CTRL + C on a piece of paper and tape it to yourself. (I LOVE tape over here.) Pair with my Cursor Hairclip. 



3. French Fries
This one takes a bit more skill and a lot of cardboard. If you do attempt it, I highly recommend that you pair your French fry costume with my Grackle Dangle earrings.

2. Akasha, Queen of the Damned
Someone NEEDS to do this early aughts throwback! A VERY complex costume, but so incredibly cool. Earlier this year I designed an Aaliyah-inspired Statement Earring and took inspiration from her role as Akasha in Queen of the Damned. Pair your Akasha costume with my Aaliyah-inspired Statement earrings. 

1. Lisa Frankenstein
She's goth-y, angsty, and totally '80s! She also literally wore my Mini Knife Hairclips in the film Lisa Frankenstein! If you are looking for the exact brand of knife hair clips that actress Kathryn Newton wore in the film-- here you go! Shout out to Lisa Frankenstein's costume designer Meagan McLaughlin. 

Until next Halloween...
