Four days until Halloween! October has literally gone by so fast and while many have had their costume picked out since the middle of September, there are plenty of others (myself included!) who don't decide on a costume until the last minute, which is basically right now. But just because you're costume is put together spur of the moment doesn't mean it has to be any worse than the rest. So don't stress! To help I've put together five easy to create costumes you can whip up in no time!
This one is probably the easiest to put together, especially if you're like me and love wearing the color black! Lydia Deetz, the moody, angst ridden goth teen from Beetlejuice, wears all black so her costume is relatively simple. If you have a black dress pair it with black booties and a black hat, then do some minimal makeup and maybe carry around a camera to add to it!

This is such a great costume and a total throwback to the good old Disney Channel days! It's all about metallics and bright colors so you can use whatever you have on hand, or you run to your nearest American Apparel or party store. Add some sparkly makeup, throw your hair up in pig tails or top knots and wrap them with a metallic scrunchie and you're Zenon Girl of the 21st Century! Don't forget to add in a Zetus Lapetus!

The best type of costume is a comfortable costume and it doesn't get more comfortable than basically going in your pajamas! Throw on an oversized white shirt, an eye mask, tassel earrings and comfy shoes and you're good to go! Maybe throw on some shorts underneath- just in case!

The key component of this costume is the red cloak, obviously! The rest you would probably already have in your closet - white shirt, black skirt, tights, and boots. Add a bold red lip and loosely curl your hair to finalize the look! Bonus points if you carry around a basket.

Keeping with the theme of childhood throwbacks, we have the Tooth Fairy! This look is about being a little more girly and whimsical, so find a flow or tulle skirt and a white top paired with neutral colored shoes. For the final touch add a tiara and a little glitter to your makeup look. To really go all out carry a bag with "Teeth" written on it!
