Forget Expensive Halloween Costumes – Try These Trendy Looks for Less
Halloween’s less than a month away, and it’s time to start thinking about your costume. Sure, you could splurge on a pricey ensemble, but it’s just as fun to pull together a cool look on the cheap. Here, we came up with a few ideas all shoppable on Rakuten and the pieces you need to make them happen. Happy shopping!
Ariana Grande
Add a super short mini or a sweatshirt dress and full make-up to pull off the look of one of the world’s biggest pop stars.
Cardi B.
Cardi B is known for provocative pieces and serious color. This red lace jumpsuit is bold and sexy, just like the rapper herself.
Meghan Markle
Meghan Markle’s poised and polished look doubles as a professional look you can rock to work. This black dress is versatile and flattering on a wide variety of figures. If you want the actual dress she wore here, it’s on sale at Saks Fifth Avenue right now…
Instagram Filter
Use Instagram Stories on your phone to bring up your favorite filter. We love the shimmery Rayburst option or hazy Sierra. Take the photo to a printing shop, and they can blow it up for you and print on foam board. Now, cut out a hole for your face and add a little sparkle.
Taylor Swift
We love Taylor Swift’s latest look — the butterflies, the pastel sequins, the bright pink look. Rock an ice cream toned romper and add a major magenta lip to pull off the look. Dye your hair in a pastel hue to achieve the full look.
This album is very much a celebration of love, in all its complexity, coziness, and chaos. It’s the first album of mine that I’ve ever owned, and I couldn’t be more proud. I’m so excited that #Lover is out NOW: https://t.co/t7jK7XmEqa pic.twitter.com/NMgE7LTdGZ
