Halloween is practically at arm’s length, regardless of whether you’ve put a costume together yet or not. If you’ve procrastinated, though, there are easy solutions to still go to your next costume party in style.
TikTok has been a place where young people gather outfit inspiration and the app has an abundance of ideas on what to wear for Halloween. Here are some of the best costume trends on TikTok. 
Lava Girl is a nostalgic for Halloween. All of the items for this costume can be easily found. You can wear a pink dress with knee-high pink boots. To truly get the desired look, you can purchase a pink wig and some light pink flame glasses. If you have someone to dress up with, they can be Shark Boy. For that costume, you can purchase grey shorts and a shark t-shirt. There are a lot of choices when it comes to accessories for this outfit, but a simple shark fin completes this outfit. 
Another big theme on TikTok is fairies. This costume idea is ethereal. The No. 1 thing you need for this outfit is wings, but you can’t just buy any pair of wings. You need a pair that will add to the fairytale feel this costume brings. Wings that are shimmering, sheer and iridescent will be a sure stand-out. Pointy fairy ears are another addition to this costume that will make anyone look like a fairy tale character. 
Since the movie “Cruella” recently came out on Disney+, it would be a timely option for this Halloween. Wearing a red dress would be a fun take on dressing up like Emma Stone’s Cruella de Vil.. You can buy a black and white wig to make the costume easily recognizable. If wearing a red ball gown dress to Halloween parties feels over the top, any red dress will do. To take a more traditional route of dressing up like Cruella, you can take it back to the original movie—while still wearing the black and white wig, wear a black slip dress with a white fur coat. As long as you have the wig, people will understand who you are.
If you’re looking for a last-minute group costume, take a page from Netflix’s famous teen drama, “Outer Banks.” This one includes costumes for guys and girls, so it’s best fit for larger groups of friends. Even your local Goodwill is a great place to find those beachy outfits so you can dress up as the main characters. You can add in the other cast members if you have a larger group than just one girl and three guys. When looking for an outfit to dress up like Sarah Cameron, played by Madelyn Cline, Free People is the best place to find the perfect pieces. Outfits for Topper and Rafe Cameron, played by Austin North and Drew Starkey, can be found at Dicks Sporting Goods or the men’s section in Dillard’s. You could purchase a golf shirt or plaid button-down to pair with khaki pants or shorts.
And don’t forget, cutting eye holes out of a bed sheet to be a ghost is always a surefire costume if all else fails Oct. 31.
