With Halloween coming up, you may be preparing your costume ideas. After all, everyone wants their costume to be the best at the party, so what do you have planned up your sleeve? If you’re still looking for ideas, you’re in the right place. Here are a few fun ones when you want to make a grand entrance at your next Halloween party:
Bob Ross
Who doesn’t love Bob Ross? “There’s nothing wrong with having a tree as a friend” has to be the wisest quote of all time. Plus, a Bob Ross costume is easy. With denim jeans, a denim shirt, and a curly-top wig, your costume is complete and definitely one of the top funny adult costumes around. Paint a quiet landscape (complete with some happy little trees) and bring it along for a costume that will be sure to impress.
Cruella Deville
If you have kids, it’s more than likely you’ve watched 101 Dalmatians for a family movie night, or perhaps the new movie Cruella Deville. If you want to do something fun for your Halloween party, Cruella Deville is the kind of costume that is a lot of fun to put together and makes a big impression. Plus, who doesn’t love a good Halloween costume that has you acting out the character?
Carole Baskin
While there are a lot of things about 2020 we’d like to wipe from our memories, who can forget Carol Baskin? With almost everyone having watched Tiger King during the lockdown in 2020, a Carole Baskin outfit could make an impression on your party guests.
Maybe they’ll love the character or maybe they’ll hate it. Either way, the outfit is pretty easy to put together. All you need is a floral crown from Forever 21 and a leopard print top from anywhere you shop—then your costume is ready to go.
Forrest Gump
All you need to be running Forrest Gump are short shorts, a t-shirt, a hat, and a beard. Oh, and let’s not forget the high socks and white tennis shoes. There you go. While not as easy as Carole Baskin to put together, we love this iconic look that is indeed making a comeback in some hipster circles. It’s also the ideal costume for someone who is already growing a glorious beard, but fake beards are also pretty easy to find online.
80s Workout Costume
You know you love this look! Oh, the days when leotards were designed to go sky high and leg warmers were worn, even when the sun had you dripping sweat outside. While we now wear this look for costume parties and fun, they say what goes around, comes around in fashion. So, while this may be the perfect look for Halloween 2021, keep your outfit stashed in the closet—it may just come back in style before you know it.
This costume is pretty easy to find. Shops like Forever 21 or even Target have plenty of fun, colorful clothes that you can shop for on a holiday budget and, if all else fails, there are plenty of retro 80s workout clothes available for purchase online.
In Conclusion
Most everyone will recognize your Halloween costume if you choose from this list. They are both easy and fun options that won’t take too much work to get together. The best tip is to start preparing for the holiday as soon as possible. That’s because as Halloween gets closer, you may find it difficult to track down specific items like wigs and beards. Whatever costume you choose, have a blast this Halloween!
