As a college student, planning a Halloween costume idea is just as tricky as finding the money to buy one. Many college kids put together costumes the day before if not the day of an event. Here are some last-minute costumes for the “Do It Yourself” type of student.
1. 50 Shades of Grey (literally) This costume is comical, cheap, and can be done in less than a day. All it takes is a quick visit to the hardware store.
2. Nerd This costume is simple and resourceful. Most college kids already have the necessary supplies to complete this quirky outfit.
3. “It’s Raining Men” This costume is as adorable as it is cheap. If there’s an umbrella, string, and a printer, there’s a costume in the making.
4. “Bubble Bath” It’s a clean, quick costume made from balloons and at-home bath supplies.
5. “Bunch of Grapes” Another balloon project with a slight difference: it’s fruit. This costume, (like the last) is a no sew ensemble with supplies from home.
6. The Audrey Hepburn If everyone wants to be her, why not dress the part?
7. Cowboy/Cowgirl In the south, there’s bound to be a western look hiding in a family member’s closet just waiting to make an appearance.
8. Bob Ross + Happy Little Tree No mistakes, just happy accidents. That is all.
9. “French Kiss” …… Get it?
10. Ghost. When in doubt, grab a sheet.
