Halloween is but a week away, and many of you may still be unsure of what 'to be.' That's why I've put together a movie montage of costumes that can be recreated using pieces you probably already have in your closet:
1. HOLLY GOLIGHTLY (Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's)
YOU'VE GOT: Black dress & sunglasses (Ray-Ban Wayfarers preferred)
YOU'LL NEED: Lots and lots of faux pearls, elbow-length black gloves
FINISH BY: Scraping your hair into a high bun and pinning in a vintage brooch
2. LITTLE EDIE BEALE (herself in Grey Gardens)
YOU'VE GOT: Black bodysuit (acceptable substitutes: fitted shirt + leotard or bathing suit) and sheer black tights
YOU'LL NEED: Vintage scarf for head wrap
FINISH BY: Waving a souvenir-size American flag and singing bawdily wherever you go
3. MARY POPPINS (Julie Andrews in Mary Poppins)
YOU HAVE: Umbrella, knitted scarf, black coat
YOU'LL NEED: Long skirt, white gloves, carpet bag, straw boater
FINISH BY: Sticking a few flowers in your hat and donning a cheery but stern disposition
4. SUSAN (Madonna in Suddenly Seeking Susan)
YOU'VE GOT: Black leggings, sunglasses, ankle boots, t-shirt
YOU'LL NEED: Black gloves, dime store jewelry
FINISH BY: Chopping the hem off your shirt & tying the extra fabric around your head
5. LYDIA DEETS (Winona Ryder in Beetlejuice)
YOU'VE GOT: Lots and lots of long, black clothes
YOU'LL NEED: Wide-brimmed black hat and 2 yards black lace to throw over it
FINISH BY: Gelling your bangs into 3 snaggle-tooth-like spikes and feeling misunderstood
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
