\"A<\/p>\n

Scary season has begun, babes! Still haven’t chosen a costume concept (like what are you even doing rn?). We’ve got cute, DIY and totally unique character costume ideas that will elevate both your Halloween and your Instagram posts.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Coraline Jones<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

@lovecoralinee<\/a><\/p>\n

While not the newest look, Coraline is a Halloween classic for a reason. She\u2019s peak autumn energy\u2014from the cozy color palette to the eerie atmosphere of her world. This costume hits the sweet spot between cute and creepy, and it’s surprisingly easy to pull off with a few key pieces.<\/p>\n

The essentials? A yellow rain jacket, matching boots and that signature blue bob. For the hair, you’ve got options: temporary dye works great if you\u2019re feeling bold, but a wig is an easy, commitment-free alternative. As for the jacket, any costume version will do\u2014just add some button eyes (drawn on or worn as props) and you\u2019re set for the Other World. Bonus points if you enlist your brother, guy friend or BF as Wybie.<\/p>\n

Sabrina Spellman<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

@kiernan_shipka_forever<\/a><\/p>\n

Put a modern twist on an OG costume with everyone\u2019s favorite teen witch. Sabrina is the perfect blend of witch-core and retro Americana, with just a dash of dark academia. Her look is polished but powerful\u2014think collared dresses, bold red lips and a headband that means business.<\/p>\n

Start with a black A-line dress or a vintage-inspired mini, layer with sheer tights or lace gloves and top it off with a red or black headband. Go the extra mile with a familiar (a stuffed black cat works) and a book of spells tucked under your arm. You\u2019ll look like you stepped out of Greendale, ready to hex and slay.<\/p>\n

Mabel Pines<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

@toonovertime<\/a><\/p>\n

If maximalist chaos and glitter glue had a love child, it would be Mabel Pines. She\u2019s the poster girl for quirky confidence\u2014and her costume is as fun as she is.<\/p>\n

Start with a bright, oversized sweater (bonus points if it has sparkles, rainbows or is homemade), a pleated skirt and chunky socks with sneakers or boots. Accessorize with a colorful headband, big smile and maybe even a pet pig plush (shoutout to Waddles). The best part? You can make it totally your own with DIY sweater art or a punny design. It\u2019s cozy, cute and stands out in the best way\u2014just like Mabel would want.<\/p>\n

The Powerpuff Girls<\/h2>\n

\"Three<\/p>\n

@babyangel.jpg<\/a><\/p>\n

Sugar, spice, everything nice\u2014and a splash of Y2K. The Powerpuff Girls are the ultimate throwback trio, and the look is super easy to DIY with a little coordination. Each girl rocks a bold color: Blossom in pink (plus her signature bow), Bubbles in baby blue (pigtails encouraged) and Buttercup in green (with extra sass).<\/p>\n

Pair color-blocked mini dresses or tanks with black belts, tall socks or combat boots, and fun accessories that match each girl\u2019s personality. To level it up: go with matching eyeliner looks, platform sneakers or holographic details for a modern reboot. Whether you’re flying solo or teaming up with friends, this costume packs a punch.<\/p>\n

Luna Lovegood<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

@mugglenet<\/a><\/p>\n

Luna is the ultimate whimsical icon\u2014equal parts dreamy and delightfully strange. Her costume is a mismatched masterpiece: think brightly patterned skirt, quirky cardigan, knee socks and her signature Spectrespecs. Add a copy of The Quibbler<\/em> rolled up like a scroll and some DIY radish earrings to bring the look home. Hair loose or lightly crimped\u2014and slightly tangled\u2014adds to the fairy-messy charm. Luna isn\u2019t just a costume\u2014she\u2019s a whole vibe. You\u2019ll stand out for all the right reasons with this effortlessly magical look.<\/p>\n

Lottie + Tiana<\/h2>\n

\"Top:<\/p>\n

@dailydoseofdisney<\/a><\/p>\n

This girlpower BFF duo is criminally underrated\u2014and such a fun way to glam up Halloween. Tiana brings elegance and ambition in her green lily-pad gown, gloves and a tiara (or even a frog plush for a clever twist). Lottie is full-on sparkle: pink tulle, dramatic lashes, shiny curls and a tiara that\u2019s just a little too extra. Together, they\u2019re the perfect blend of sugar and sass. Whether you channel their royal looks or go casual with vintage Southern belle-inspired outfits, this duo is all about friendship, dreams and just the right amount of sparkle.<\/p>\n

Astrid Hofferson<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

@nicoparker<\/a><\/p>\n

With the new How To Train Your Dragon Movie <\/em>out and soaring, this is both a current but classic costume. Astrid is the perfect blend of warrior energy and Viking-core aesthetic. Her look is all about layering textures: faux fur, leather, studs and braided hair.<\/p>\n

Go for a tunic or long sweater over a skirt, add DIY \u201carmor\u201d details with studs or metallic-painted cardboard, and top it off with a fur-trimmed cape or scarf. Braid your hair (or a wig) in a loose Viking style, and carry a foam axe or dragon plush to channel her fierce but loyal energy. It\u2019s a costume that feels strong, adventurous and still totally wearable\u2014and it\u2019ll definitely stand out in a sea of princesses.<\/p>\n

Wednesday + Enid<\/h2>\n

\"Two<\/p>\n

@zieglerpacks<\/a><\/p>\n

Opposites attract\u2014and no one proves that better than this instantly iconic dorm-room duo. Go full monochrome for Wednesday: black collared dress, braided pigtails, sharp eyeliner and a permanent scowl. Meanwhile, Enid is her pastel-coated foil: rainbow knits, glittery eyeshadow and a bright smile. Whether you DIY their Nevermore uniforms or do your own spin on their casual looks, this costume works solo but shines<\/em> together. It’s goth meets glitter in the most Instagram-worthy way possible.<\/p>\n
