So, there I was, standing in the middle of the costume aisle at the local store, staring at a sea of plastic masks and cheap wigs, wondering how it had already become that time of the year again. Halloween, the night when we're all supposed to transform into something, or someone, else. But here's the thing, I thought to myself, why does it have to be so complicated?
Don't get me wrong, I love a good costume as much as the next person. But sometimes, you just want to throw something together at the last minute, or maybe you're not feeling particularly crafty this year. Whatever the reason, I'm here to tell you that dressing up for Halloween doesn't have to mean spending hours in a hot glue gun-induced frenzy or breaking the bank.
Raid Your Closet
You might be surprised at what you can find lurking in the depths of your wardrobe. A black dress and some cat ears can make a pretty convincing catwoman, and a white shirt and a red tie can transform you into a corporate zombie. The key here is to think outside the box - or in this case, outside the costume store.

Food costumes are always a hit, and they're usually pretty easy to put together. A couple of paper plates and some string can make a convincing taco, and a red shirt and some felt can turn you into a lobster. Plus, you can usually find all the materials in your kitchen. Win-win!
Word of caution: Be careful not to get too carried away with the food costumes. I once saw someone dressed as a giant pizza, and let's just say the cheese was not the only thing melting.
