Now that I am in Cosmetology school it is a BIG thing to dress up for Halloween with full blown hair and make up to match! I am so excited to show off my creative side and have some fun dressing up for the clients too because Halloween falls on a Saturday so we will all be on the floor in the salon.
I have been pondering of what I should be that would fun and UNIQUE since that’s what I love to do…and I have decided I am going to be a BUMBLE BEE! Not quite the cutesy bumble bee, but the QUEEN BEE! In between cute, sexy, and cheesy. I have searching around online a bit looking at my options and ideas and what I can put together, I have seen a lot of full piece dress ddult bumble bee costumes but those are wayyy to sexy and appropriate to wear to school or anywhere for that matter and I want to choose something that is fun and upbeat like my personality.
So far I know I do want to wear a black TUTU. Not sure yet if I want to buy the tool myself at the fabric store and put that together to make a TUTU or if I want to buy one.
I saw one costume at CoolestHomemadeCostumes.com which was made 100% from things at home and limitly bought. The bumble bee costume was made by creating their own tutu and by using a black tshirt top that was taped with yellow duct tape. That sounds fairly easy and cheap since I do have a lot of black clothes and all I would need was a TUTU and yellow duct tape.
Let me know what your ideas are!! Have you put any thought to what you will be this year? COMMENT BELOW and SHARE!
Below are some pictures of cute Bumble Bee costumes that I do like and want to take for inspiration.
Cute idea! I haven’t dressed up for Halloween in a while, but I need to come up with something for this year…any ideas?!
Halloween Costume Ideas:
-Dorthy from Wizard of OZ
-A LadyBug
-Pocahontas
-Cruella Devil
-A Queen
- Butterfly
-Cowgirl
-Spider Woman ( not the spider man type, you could wear all black and focos on spider web designs and spider accessories) I did that last year
Hope that helps!
I like number 3, Samantha~
Have a good time putting it all together!
I like the 2nd to last one, the one with the black leggings. I personally am not fond of the bee costume, mostly cause a lot of people are bees. I think a red lady bug custome would be cool.
Visiting from SITS Saturday. I love the idea of a queen bee for a Halloween costume.
I love the queen bee costume. I did it 5 years ago and think that I will repeat it this year. Get yellow electical tape (lowes or home depot). It looks better b/c it’s thinner than duct tape and shiny. I made my tulle “skirt”, just pleated the top for fullness and sewed on a ribbon to tie at the waist. add a crown/tiara and you’re done! no wings b/c the queen bee doesn’t have wings…
Thanks Megan! That is a lot of really good ideas, and you’re totally right about the wings LOL
