Keeping with Cats Like Us Halloween tradition, we are offering you some kooky spooky costume ideas! We truly believe that thinking outside the 'big box' Halloween costume stores will give you a unique Halloween ensemble as well as piece's you can wear all year long!
I Love Lucy is an iconic 1950s television show and with a red wig paired with the Navy Nicky Polka Dot dress, you'll look like Lucille Ball! Add a crinoline like the Royal Blue Crinoline for extra fullness and the Beach Party Cat Eye Sunglasses in white.
Sometimes a dress just speaks for itself, but with a few accessories, a little Peter Pan collar dresses like the Magpie Mini 60s dress just screams WEDNESDAY ADDAMS! The black and white colorway and the collar plus buttons is not only adorable, it can be kooky spooky! Add a dark braided ponytail wig (or braid your hair), Full of Woe Wednesday brooch to your collar and Over the Knee Cable Knit Socks. For added 'Wednesday-ness' carry around a headless doll, hehe!
This dress is already named Cat in the Hat Sweetheart dress, so I took inspiration from the one kitty wearing a Dr. Seuss "Cat in the Hat" hat. By adding some accessories like; a red and white striped top hat, big red neck bow and some cartoon gloves, I think this take on Dr. Seuss's Cat in the Hat character is quick clever. Add some Red and Black Striped Tights for extra cartoon fun!
How about this take on a classic devil costume, a lil' 1950s style pinup devil! The Lil Devill Kewpie Doll Sweater is paired with Red Full Circle Skirt and some props like a sequin devil horn headband and little sequined pitchfork. That lil' devil Kewpie is just so cute and this costume would be perfect for office parties, school functions or just because it's Halloween!
