How to Make an Easy Costume Look Luxe

First, a few thoughtful details can make any easy Halloween costume feel polished and elevated, even DIY Halloween costumes you put together at home.

Start with a base you own.

A slip dress, black bodysuit, white sweater or pink set can become the foundation for so many pretty looks and easy DIY costumes, so start with what you already own.

Add one hero accessory.

Wings, a crown, a wig or statement ears instantly give the outfit its costume moment and also keep the rest of the look easy.

Do your makeup with intention.

Shimmer, a glossy lip and a pretty lash can bring the entire look together, so keep the makeup polished and fun.

Pick a color story.

Styling the outfit around one or two colors creates a coordinated look that photographs beautifully and also keeps everything cohesive.

Plan for comfort.

Choose shoes you can dance in and layers you can add or remove, so your easy Halloween costumes feel as good at the end of the night as they do at the start.
