CUTE HALLOWEEN COSTUMES IDEAS 2021:
1. The Powerpuff Girls

Recreate this halloween costume:
Some girls in my friend group did this a few years ago in college and I was so jealous of how well they put it together.
Who wouldn’t want to feel like a total girl boss with their 2 other bffs?! All you need is the right color scheme and this is SO easy to throw together (even with stuff you already have). I promsie you and your girls will look daaang good.
2. Playboy Bunny vs. School Girl
Recreate this halloween costume:
A little good girl, bad girl action here that is perfect to do with your best friend. A pair of bunny ears and a plaid skirt puts the whole look together and makes for the cutest pics. I also feel like this costume matches the personality of every dynamic duo.
3. Hawaiian Beach Girls

Recreate this halloween costume:
This is literally such a fun look for your whole group of friends. Nothing beats a halloween costume where you only need two things, and I promise the pictures you take all together will look so great.
I would also 1000% wear this t-shirt again, I think its so funny haha.
4. I'm a Barbie Girl
Recreate this halloween costume:
Another perfect look for you and your bff. Two of my friends did this last year and they seriously rocked it the whole night. Their girly side was in full force and they really completed the look with the high pitched Barbie voice too haha. Any pink clothes you have can make this work flawlessly.
5. Sexy-cute Cat
Recreate this halloween costume:
If you say you haven’t been a cat for halloween before, you must be lying. This is one of my favorite cute halloween costumes that I’ve repeated an embarrassing amount of times over the years. When there’s three nights of celebrating, having a pair of cat ears on hand is definitely useful! Throw on those whiskers with some face paint and call it a day.
6. Southern Housewives
Ohh yessss. This is one of my favorites. I know we all secretly binge housewives of whatever city you prefer, so this is SUCH a fun costume. With this cute halloween costume you get full permission to look and act the part. I would totally wear a bralette with a blazer and toss on some pearls. You most likely already have an outfit you can throw together!
7. Cheetah Girls
Animal print has made a fulll come-back and I’m so here for it. So many cute ways to throw this one together and who doesn’t want to strut their stuff on the dance floor all night like an OG cheetah girl?! I would also for sure put on a fake head-set and sing cheetah girls songs allll night long.
8. Cat In The Hat

Recreate this halloween costume:
Bringing the childhood memories into full-force with this one. From the face paint, to the hat, to the ears- there’s so many different ways you can pull this one together!
9. Hippies
Recreate this halloween costume:
I seriously LOVE the hippie look. I’ve seen so many people do it over the years and everyone always looks amazing. It’s also suuuper common in college to have hippie themed parties, so you’ll be fully prepared. You can also add a little twist with some Coachella vibes too.
10. Skeletons
Recreate this halloween costume:
I did this with my friends two years ago and we got sooo many compliments. This is another perfect costume that you can do with a huge group of people. All you need is a black outfit and some face paint! Best part is, I promise you don’t need to be artistic to draw the skeleton face, easier than it looks!
11. It Clown
credit: @journeystaggs
Recreate this halloween costume:
This movie truly terrified me, but I’m obsessed with how this couple pulled off the look of Georgie and IT. Don’t have a boyfriend to do this with? A best friend will work just as well. Nothing beats looking scary AND hot at the same time.
12. Cute Deer
Recreate this halloween costume:
I saw soo many girls do this a couple years ago and I’ve been obsessed ever since. The face paint looks amazing on anyone and I’m seriously debating doing this for Halloween this year. I’d for sure also lather on that fake tan for this one!!
13. Princess Peach & Mario
Recreate this halloween costume:
Ugh, this couple looks so cute. You can really put together any outfit and toss on that pretty little crown. The onesie also looks super comfortable, so if that's more your vibe- I say go for it!
14. Go Go Girls
Recreate this halloween costume:
![Gogo (White) Adult Boots [Wide Calf], 9 M](https://bysophialee.com/wp-content/uploads/317c62Xn8DL._SL500_.webp)
One of my all time favorites without a doubt. These iconic white boots are everything especially paired with a colorful dress and I can guarantee the attention will be on you all night because you’ll look SO good. If you don’t have white boots, tall white socks with any white pair of shoes works just as well!
15. Space Cowgirls
credit: @ashleydeady
Recreate this halloween costume:
A little combo action going on here that looks amazing. The shiny fits are so trendy and I don’t think I’ve ever met someone who doesn’t look good in a cowgirl hat. This is also perfect if you’ve been either a space girl or cowgirl in the past, because you can make a whole new costume out of stuff you already have!
16. Talladega Nights
Recreate this halloween costume:
If you know me, you know how obsessed I am with country music. This is right up my alley, and for sure a costume I plan to wear this Halloween. Also the perfect excuse to get yourself a pair of cowboy boots and listen to country music all night.
17. Animal Onesies
Recreate this halloween costume:
Living in the midwest, this costume looks so ideal to me. It gets super chilly around Halloween where I live, so a onesie is the perfect way to look cute and stay warm. Best of both worlds am I right?! I’ve worn onesies for halloween in the past and the amount of people that told me they were jealous I was warm was insane.
18. Angel
credit: @sarahmickiewiczzz
Recreate this halloween costume:
I promise you’ll turn heads at any Halloween party with this one. Have a bff that needs a costume? This turns into the perfect duo with a devil sidekick, because every duo has a devil and an angel.
19. Rock N' Roll
Recreate this halloween costume:
Who knew rock n’ roll could look so chic? This is also perfect to do with your whole friend group! Best part of the costume in my opinion is getting to wear the messy hairstyles. The dark makeup is so fun to put on too and you’ll feel like a total bad a**
20. The Roaring 20's
Recreate this halloween costume:
I am so in love with this costume. You and your boyfriend (or bff) will be dressed to impress with this head-turner, and you can even wear a dress you already have! Amazon and party stores both have everything you could possibly need to complete this look.
21. Gryffindor Uniform
credit: @perlanicolette
Recreate this halloween costume:
For all my Harry Potter fans, this one’s for you. Act the part with an accent and you’ll be the star of any Halloween party. You can honestly use this costume to be any of the Harry Potter characters!
22. Lilo & Stitch
Recreate this halloween costume:
The perfect dynamic duo. You and your bff will for sure kill it with this look and dressing up as Disney characters is always so much fun. You can for sure pull it together with clothes you already have if they match the color scheme! Matching makeup to the color of your outfit also helps complete the look.
23. Pirates
Recreate this halloween costume:
Ahoyyy Matey! I think the pirate look is always so bad a** and I’ve never seen someone look bad doing it. You’ll have so much fun with this costume and bandanas are so in style right now.
24. Boxer
Recreate this halloween costume:
You already know how good you’ll look in this one. Perfect excuse to buy a silk robe (which I know we all strive to have one day) and wear a sports bra and spandex! You’ll look dang good and you’ll be comfy, what more could you want?!
25. Tinkerbell
The shimmery eyes are for sure my favorite part of this cute halloween costume. This one is super easy to throw together with some fun makeup and clothes you already have. Once you have your wand you’re all set and I know with a wand in my hand all night my confidence would for sure skyrocket haha.
26. Rodeo

Recreate this halloween costume:
Couples always kill it with this look. You won’t have to do much convincing with this one for your boyfriend because all he’ll really need is a cowboy hat! You can definitely do this with a group of friends too.
27. Harley Quinn

Recreate this halloween costume:
This was the latest and greatest girls costume last Halloween and I was so impressed by how well people threw this one together. I also am in love with the pigtails and makeup. Side note, if you haven’t seen Suicide Squad, go watch now. Like right now.
28. 20's Flapper Girls
credit: @andilawley
Recreate this halloween costume:
I went to a roaring 20’s themed party last year and dressed as a flapper girl and loved every minute. I got so many compliments on my outfit and it totally made me wish I got to live through the 20’s. You can always use a dress you already have, or buy a dress you know you’ll for sure wear again. Everyone loves a flapper girl!
29. The Angel & Devil
Recreate this halloween costume:
The trendiest and most iconic bff costume ever. I did this one year with my partner in crime and both our costumes turned out so good. It was also so fun to play the part of good girl bad girl.
30. Firefighter & Dalmatian
credit: @mckenziee_10
Recreate this cute halloween costumes idea:
One year my friends and I had a party where all the girls dressed as dalmations and all the guys dressed up as firefighters. It was literally so much fun and all the guys were comparing who had the best firefighter costume, it was hilarious and so entertaining. I’ve also heard of people having a 101 dalmations party with one Cruella De Vil and this dalmatian costume would be so perfect for that too!
31. Wig Out
Credit: @elizabeth.gouldman
Recreate this halloween costume:
OMG I am seriously going to try and convince my group of girlfriends to do this with me this year. How could you not have a good time when wearing a neon wig?! I’ve definitely seen girls do this for bachelorette parties and am so jealous, so I love the idea of doing this for a cute halloween costume. Also the perfect time to whip out your alter ego, we all have one. Don’t deny it. I would totally have all my friends wear white with the colorful wigs and call it a day.
32. 80's Aspen
Credit: @charlizehulse
Recreate this cute halloween costumes idea:
This whole costume can totally be thrown together with a quick thrifting trip. Amazon actually has some awesome colorful jackets too. If you ski or snowboard and have goggles, toss those on and you’re good to go! Perfect as a solo costume or with a group of friends. If you’re feeling extra ambitious you could even carry around some ski polls.
33. Cher (Clueless) and Mermaid Man (SpongeBob)
credit: @clairexiao
Recreate this halloween costume:
Haha this one actually makes me laugh. It might take some convincing for a friend to dress up as Mermaid Man, but I know you’ll be able to pull-off Cher no problem. Your local thrift store will for sure have some plaid you can use.
34. Construction Workers
Recreate this cute halloween costumes idea:
This construction worker costume is so simple and cute. You can seriously wear any outfit as long as you have the bright hat (can for sure be a beanie or if you want to go all-out a hard hat works too) and the reflector vest. Do this by yourself, with a friend, group of friends, or your boyfriend!
