As October arrives, Halloween is already on the mind — we get consumed with decorating and planning for All Hallows’ Eve (honestly, who doesn’t?!). Culture has assured us that you don’t have to be a kid to enjoy a little spook and treats, or a really, really good costume. Though we love playing dress up, we are adults with realistic budgets, so spending the big bucks (or even little bucks!) on something only to wear it once is definitely not high on our list of priorities (and with busy schedules, making something from scratch isn’t always an option). So you ask, what’s the solve? It’s simple! Reuse items in your own closet (gasp!), or invest in an item of clothing that can be used for a number of holidays or events, not just Halloween. Put a lot of focus on hair, makeup, and of course, attitude, and you’re sure to have a unique, memorable ensemble. Trust us! We love couples' costumes, but what we love even more is group costumes! The vision? Out of this world — The sun, moon and star(s). Without further ado, here’s how we turned a few favorite dresses into unearthly costumes.
