Trick-or-treaters love it when grown-ups come to the door in costume. And you want one that parents get a kick out of, too. Here's the ultimate power mom getup: Mother Nature. This costume is open to interpretation and really lets you discover your own inner goddess.
Although it requires a bit of prep, on Halloween night you can add a bit of natural glam by wearing false eyelashes and a hair extension that matches your own locks. Pair it with some metallic gladiator sandals on summer clearance from a discount shoe store, and you're bound to be a force of nature.
Materials
- For the dress: Thrift shop white gown or drop-waist white dress (Or, use a sheet you can fashion into a toga.)
- Optional: Matching sash
- Silk or real flowers
- Glue gun
- Glitter/glitter glue
- Gladiator sandals from a discount shoe store
- Hair extension that matches your hair color
- False eyelashes
Instructions
- Generously apply glitter to the flowers and allow them to dry.
- Apply flowers directly to the dress and/or sash, using the glue gun. Make the flowers most dense at the waist, over one of the shoulders and down the skirt.
- Create a simple wreath for your hair with flowers and glue gun. If it is too hard to attach the flowers to one another, attach them to a headband.
- After applying false eyelashes, wear gold glittery eye shadow, and use highlighter on your cheekbones so you glimmer like Mother Nature! (Also, don't be shy when applying a floral perfume!)
