The classic monster is always a good choice but if you’re looking for something that’s a little more enticing, put a twist on a classic monster and transform your face into a slightly creepy but cute monster. You can tie your hair up into messy pigtails and make an easy Frankenstein costume with your own twist. The good news about this choice is that it won’t go out of style.

This is a great choice when you’re low on time and also on ideas. However, it seems like there’s always a new movie coming out so you can choose any number of characters from the films. The stormtrooper costumes are especially popular and you can invest in a good quality one. This will not only be in style year after year, but it’s also a durable choice that people will recognize and enjoy.

This is a great choice when you have a slightly risque party dress and want to have some fun with your makeup. Choose dramatic makeup to accent your eyes and lips. Pair it with a dress and maybe some fishnet stockings if you’re feeling particularly dangerous. This costume is a great choice for a grown-up Halloween celebration. You also won’t have to worry about it going out of style either.

Wicked witch

Although this costume can be as simple or elaborate as desired, you can put your own classic twist on it. If you want to go all out, get some green face paint and go as the witch from Wicked, the musical. This will be recognized for years to come. If you’re not feeling quite as ambitious, you can choose a simple dress, carry a broomstick, and avoid brushing your hair. It won’t go out of style either.

Although you don’t have to choose this particular president’s wife, she’s a classic figure that’s easily recognized and enjoyed. If you have hair that can be teased into her signature style, then you’re halfway there. Simply choose a two-piece suit and see if you can find a pillbox hat handy. This is also a good costume if you’re going to a Halloween event as a couple. Your partner can wear a suit and your work is done! Look for vintage suits for women in order to find one that’s period appropriate.

Finding a Halloween costume isn’t particularly difficult. However, finding one that you can wear from year to year isn’t always as easy. If you want to wear go-to costume available, then you should consider one of these classic choices. You won’t have to worry about going out-of-style when you choose a costume that’s timeless and always enjoyed.
