Channel Your Inner Serena & Blair

Looking to channel your inner Serena van der Woodsen and Blair Waldorf this Halloween with your bestie? It's easier than you think! You can pull off these iconic *Gossip Girl* looks by mixing and matching from your own wardrobe. For Serena, think chic layered looks, styles with a slight boho vibe, or a preppy look with a twist.

Lily Bloom Chic

Dressing like Lily Bloom from *It Ends With Us* for Halloween is all about embracing a quirky, bold, and effortlessly unique vibe. Lily’s style mixes fun, random pieces that show her fearless personality. Think floral dresses layered with oversized jackets, colorful scarves, or funky shoes—items you likely already have in your wardrobe! Add a few quirky accessories, like mismatched earrings or a statement bag, and you’ve nailed her look. It’s easy to piece together an outfit that feels perfectly imperfect, just like Lily, and makes you stand out with a blend of charm and individuality at any Halloween gathering.

 

 

Scarecrow Style

Have a plaid dress you love? Pair it with a straw hat and some rustic booties, and you've got a chic scarecrow look. This is a great way to repurpose your summer and fall boutique dresses for Halloween.

Witchy Vibes

Got a little black dress hanging in your closet? Perfect! Pair it with a witch hat and some dark makeup, and voila! You've got yourself a classic witch costume. Add some black boots and a broomstick, and you're ready to cast spells all night long!

Cowgirl Up

If you own a denim or chambray dress, you're in luck! Add some cowboy boots and a wide brim hat, and you're a cowgirl ready to lasso some hearts. This look is not only cute but also super comfortable for a night of trick-or-treating or dancing!

Emily in Paris

Dressing like Emily Cooper from *Emily in Paris* for Halloween is all about fun, fashion-forward pieces that exude confidence and whimsy. Emily’s style is a vibrant mix of bold colors, striking patterns, and standout accessories, which makes recreating her looks super easy with items you already own. Go for a bright, printed dress or a fun blazer paired with chic skirts or high-waisted pants. Add a dramatic beret, oversized sunglasses, or quirky statement bags to complete the look. With just a few key pieces, you’ll capture Emily’s playful, fashionable essence—perfect for a Halloween costume that says *je ne sais quoi*!

Sandy from Grease

If you have a faux leather jacket, particularly in the moto style, and leggings, you're all set to be Sandy from Grease! Add some fiery red lipstick and heels, and you're ready to hand jive all night long!

Pirate

Maybe you're more into high seas and swashbuckling pirates? Well, you're in luck! All you need for this is a flowy blouse, black faux leather leggings or jeans and eye patch! You could also add a sword and large hoop earrings just for a bit of flare. This look is sure to create a spot on pirate look while also looking pretty stylish. It's a win win in our book! 

 

Animal Instincts

Not really the Halloween type but still want to blend in with the festivities? Animal print is your go-to solution! It’s an easy, stylish way to give off a wild, fun vibe without committing to a full costume. Throw on your favorite leopard print dress, zebra-striped top, or snake print accessories, and you’re instantly in the spirit without feeling over the top. Animal print adds just the right amount of edge, making you look effortlessly festive and on-trend, all while keeping it low-key. It’s the perfect mix of chic and playful for Halloween without the fuss of an actual costume!
