Halloween is one of my favourite times of the year – I love dressing up and celebrating all things spooky! If you’re heading off to a Halloween party this year or taking the kids trick or treating, then here are a few costume ideas to get you in the mood…
Vamp it up with a Gothic inspired number – whether you want to be an alluring witch or a sultry vampire (or the victim of one), this is a very versatile outfit. Choose your creature of the night and accessorise appropriately.

Who’s the cutest mouse of all? This dress can be worn all year round, just add the cute accessories to turn it into a super sweet costume!

Keep it simple with spooky accessories! I love these bags, all from ASOS. The one covered in eyes reminds me of this amazing set of nails by Hello Tanya!

Books and television are great places to find costume inspiration. I know a few people who are hooked on Game of Thrones at the moment, and this costume makes me think of my favourite character – the mother of dragons, Daenerys Targaryen.

If you’re shopping on a budget or want a low maintenance costume, you can’t go past a little back dress paired with a mask. I went down this route for my Halloween costume last year – you can see it here.

Hello! I have scoured the internet trying to find a dress similar to Maxie Mouse dress and am having zero luck finding anything in my size (US 26/28). Google is not being very friendly to me, so I was wondering if you knew of any other places that would have this?
If not, I understand. I just know that it never hurts to ask 🙂
I apologize for the dual posts, I didn’t receive confirmation on my phone that the first one had posted.
Hello! I am looking desperately online for the Minnie Mouse costume that is shown here (or similar) but can’t find one my size (26/28) anywhere via Google. Are you at all able to help? The link provides a “Page not found” message. I live in Washington State but obviously know the internet is the only chance I have of finding something.
Thank you tremendously for any help 🙂
Sorry Francisca, this is a post I did last year so it looks like that dress is no longer available. You could try ModCloth or Pinup Girl Clothing for a similar one maybe?
hi there where can ya get plus size costumes?? Im stuck and need one asap 🙁 please help
I’m not sure where you are located, but google is probably your best bet to find one nearby! All costume hire shops I have visited have had plus size options, just depends what you are looking for.
Kia Ora Meagan, do you know of any places in Auckland that do Plus Size Halloween Costumes?? I probably should just Google, but it would be nice to know if you have had any experience hiring Plus Costumes in Auckland here. Cheers.
Hi Makere, the only place I have hired costumes from in Auckland is First Scene – the staff are wonderful and very helpful, but their costumes book out in advance so make sure you get in quick x
I love the mermaid costume, but sadly don’t think I’ll be dressing up this year
Oh no, how come Jenna?! Dressing up is so much fun!
