While you can certainly hop on Amazon and purchase a ready made, don’t-have-to-think-about-it costume sent straight to your door, some people actually enjoy spending a bit of time crafting together the perfect fancy dress. In my opinion, these\u00a0Halloween costume ideas are bit more creative than the ones you see in stores, and make for quite the conversation starter. Here are 15\u00a0brilliant\u00a0Halloween costume ideas perfect to wear to any themed uni party this season.<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

1. Nudists on Strike<\/h3>\n

Take the easy way out with this simple costume. Literally wear whatever you want and just sling a sign around your neck saying, “nudist on strike!”<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

2. Freudian Slip<\/h3>\n

All you need to do is paste a few of Sigmund Freud’s famous terms onto a slip dress and there you have it, a Freudian slip.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0<\/a><\/h3>\n

3. YouTube Channel<\/h3>\n

Label your video whatever you want to dictate how you should pose all night. “Guy makes out with girl at a uni party” is one to consider.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0<\/a><\/h3>\n

4.\u00a0Dancing Emoji<\/h3>\n

Throw on your best red dress and strike a pose.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0<\/a><\/h3>\n

5.\u00a0Twin Dancing Emoji<\/h3>\n

Looks like a trend is starting with these Halloween costume ideas. Grab your best friend, wear matching black leotards and bow, lock arms and stand on one leg (having blonde hair doesn’t helps too).<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

6.\u00a0Stick Figure<\/h3>\n

Arrange black gorilla tape on an all white outfit to give the appearance of a stick figure and don’t forget your mask!<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

7. Miss Universe<\/h3>\n

Quite literally.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0<\/a><\/h3>\n

8. Party Animal<\/h3>\n

Dress up as whatever animal you want and\u00a0throw on a\u00a0party hat!<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

9. French Kiss<\/h3>\n

Get it – the french version of Kiss.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

10. Spice Girls<\/h3>\n

Not those<\/em> spice girls…actual spice girls.<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

11. Fork in the Road<\/h3>\n

Stick to an all black outfit and arrange some yellow tape in a winding fashion. Then just paste a fork right in the middle of your shirt.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

12. Blue Ivy<\/h3>\n

We’d like to thank Beyonce for giving her daughter the perfect name for a Halloween costume.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

13. Bee-yonce<\/h3>\n

Then again, we’d like to thank Beyonce for having such a name herself!<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

14.\u00a0Grumpy Cat<\/h3>\n

The infamous hard-to-please feline makes for one funny costume! Dress up as a cat, keep a scowl on your face and carry around a sign with something very negative on it, such as, “I went to a Halloween party once…it was awful.”<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0<\/a><\/h3>\n

15. Error 404: Costume Not Found<\/h3>\n

And if\u00a0you can’t think of anything else; this always works.<\/p>\n
