Halloween is the perfect night to let yourself be whoever you want to be! It’s the one night a year where everyone gets to dress up, pull some tricks, and eat lots of treats.

Cat With A Ball Of Yarn

This super cute and cuddly costume is perfect for every cat-lover. Wear an all-black outfit. You can make it fancy with a dress, meant for a night on the town, or you can dress it down with a pair of comfy sweats. Grab a ball of yarn to entangle yourself in. We suggest a bright-colored yarn to really make it pop against your all-black outfit. Throw on a pair of cat ears and a tail, or make your own!

Jack ‘O Lantern

All you need for this costume is something orange to wear, black paper, tape, and scissors! Use your scissors to cut out your jack ‘o lantern face on the black paper. Tape the face to your orange dress or shirt. You now have a super simple Halloween costume that took just a few minutes to make.
