Not Your Average Sexy “Fill in the Blank” Costume: 5 Chic & Easy Halloween Looks

When it comes to dressing up for Halloween, I just have one teeny tiny request to ladies everywhere: puh-leaseeeeee let’s all vow to stop with those tacky Party City “sexy ________” costumes. They are monstrosities & are 100% NOT sexy. If you look up the word tacky in the dictionary, they should just ditch the description altogether and throw in a picture of a “sexy” Nurse costume instead

I am proud to say that, even when I went through my hoochie-Halloween phase (don’t judge, we’ve all been there), I have never succumbed to a costume in a bag!!!

These days, I actually do Halloween a lil’ different than most. I start out with an idea of what I want to be & then I search my fave boutiques to find all of the components that will bring the look together. This way, I am not only buying pieces that I like & will actually wear again, but my costume will also be completely original & out of the box.

Since Halloween is creeping up super quickly and some of you may still be searching for the perfect costume, I decided to throw together 5 fool-proof Halloween looks that are fashionable, chic, head-turning, & stupid easy to throw together.

I would love love love to hear which of the below looks you’d rock? LMK!!

xx, E
