Halloween is almost here – that means an excuse to look like your favourite female hero. Here’s how to do it subtly.
We may be subjected to 9 to 5 jobs, but that doesn’t mean we should let the Halloween season pass us by.
Not all of us have Heidi Klum’s budget to get into the Halloween spirit, so here are some easy everyday outfits you can replicate on the daily without looking ghastly.
For the working girl who wants to be Halloween ready, take cues from Carrie Bradshaw. Easily replicate this business Bradshaw look by pairing your pant suit with a pink shirt and accessories with a stand out piece. This timeless look is an ode to Sex and the City while keeping in check with office dress code.
Pick up this Pinstriped Vest from Zalora and Pink Two Pocket Shirt from Dorothy Perkins to replicate the look. Pair them with your basic white pants(or jeans) and a black pair of heels to be your very own Carrie Bradshaw!
Truth be told, we’ve all been rooting for Daenerys Targaryen. Here’s your chance to feel like the Queen of Dragons herself. The long dress, boots, and minimalistic accessories look is easy to copy. Just pair any of your maxi dresses with a pair of boots and a silver or gold choker (preferably one with a dragon on it) and you’re ready to go!
For finishing touches, throw in a braid or two for your hair!
Shop Zalia Embellished Cape Dress on Zalora and this Medallion Choker from Luccacal for that added regal affair.
We wish we could live a day in the life of fearless gladiator Olivia Pope but here’s a sure-fire way to feel the least bit like a badass problem-solver. Kerry Washington dons work appropriate outfits on the daily, but her added armour is her white coats, making her look like a walking knight. We suggest you get your usual work wear and add on the white coat to make you feel like one of her gladiators.
Grab this Wide lapel wool-blend coat from MANGO or this more weather appropriate White Eyelet Sleeveless Jacket from Dorothy Perkins and walk the streets with Miss Pope confidence.
Harley Quinn has become 2016’s standout movie role with women replicating her outfits and makeup all over social media. Here’s an easy way to pay tribute to this daring and quirky character without the fishnet stockings and booty shorts. With Harley’s standout colours being blue, red and white, incorporate these hues into your outfit.
Pair this Flutter Top in Red from Mike & Gala with Alcott’s Super Skinny Trousers for a more toned down look. For that added flair, pick up a choker and leather accessories. Baseball bats optional.
If Lemonade speaks to your soul, then this is the outfit for you. Think feisty Queen B swinging a bat and you already have a picture of that iconic yellow dress in mind. All you’ve got to do is pair a yellow dress with some strappy heels and a curly hairdo and you’re ready to break the internet!
For a glam look-alike, pick up Rocket X Lunch’s Velvet Pleats Dress or a cheaper substitute, Dorothy Perkins Yellow Button Through Tie Waist Shirt Dress.
We couldn’t make a list without including our very own fashion forward songstress, Yuna Zarai. Yuna is known for her print mash-ups and relaxed chic take on fashion. Sport turtlenecks, palazzo pants and statement necklaces or floral pantsuits alongside her signature turban to replicate this beauty’s style.
Yuna has made it a tad bit easier for us to be inspired by her style with the HattaYuna collection found on Fashion Valet. Pick up any of these pieces to stun this Halloween season.
This is basically a bonus tip for anyone looking for an easy way to get into the Halloween spirit. One of the easiest Halloween characters to replicate is Wednesday Addams. All you need are a black collared dress and pigtail braids.
Pick up Something Borrowed’s Contrast Collar Midi Bodycon Dress or go the extra mile and dress like Morticia Addams in H&M’s Long Lace Dress.
