Halloween costumes don’t have to mean spending a fortune on something you’ll wear once and then shove into the back of a closet.

Some of the best costumes start with clothes you already own — then come to life with a few clever accessories.

At SassyBirds, we’re all about jewelry with personality. So we’ve put together over 15 easy Halloween costume ideas built around statement necklaces, earrings, pins and accessories that can become part of your everyday wardrobe long after October 31st.

Because a WITCH necklace might be perfect for Halloween — but a fabulous pair of star earrings, a pink heart necklace or a quirky dog pin? Those deserve to come out all year round.

Cosmic Witch 🔮 🌙

The look:

Black dress or top, boots, witch hat and plenty of celestial sparkle.

Add a Moon Glow Necklace, Moon Glow Earrings or Midnight Moonstuck Necklace to take your witch from basic black to celestial sorceress.

Add dark eye makeup, a little shimmer and perhaps a broom for maximum witchy energy.

SassyBirds it with:

Moon Glow maxi necklace, earrings in black glitter and pin in silver glitter.

Celestial Goddess 🌙✨

The look:

Flowy, glam dress or top, with sequins and soft celestial make-up.

Start with a flowing black, white, silver or gold dress and layer on moon and star jewelry. Add metallic makeup, glitter around the eyes and stars through your hair.

SassyBirds it with:

Starlight Maxi Necklace and matching Starlight earrings in Gold Mirror acrylic.

Fortune Teller 🔮

The look:

Flowing skirt? Check. Head scarf? Check. Lots of jewelry? Absolutely.

Layer celestial necklaces and earrings with bangles, scarves and rings. Carry a deck of tarot cards or a crystal ball and you've got an easy costume made largely from pieces already sitting in your closet.

SassyBirds it with:

Sun & Moon Dream Drop Earrings and Man in the Moon  Necklace.

Rodeo Barbie 🤠💕

The look:

Come on Barbie, let's go… line dancing?

Grab your pinkest outfit, cowboy boots and a cowboy hat. Then pile on Western-inspired accessories.

Pink denim, fringe and rhinestones are very much encouraged.

SassyBirds it with:

Cowboy boot necklace in Pink Mirror and cowboy hat glitter earrings. Complete the look with a silver glitter horseshoe purse charm/keychain.

Classic Cowgirl 🤠

The look:

Not feeling the pink?

Denim jeans or shorts, a white shirt, boots and a cowboy hat are pretty much all you need.

A few Western jewelry pieces make it look intentional rather than like you just happened to be wearing a hat.

SassyBirds it with:

Silver Glitter Horseshoe necklace and earrings. Or gold glitter if you prefer!  

Barbie Girl 💕🕶️

The look:

Halloween rule #1: There is no such thing as too much pink.

Wear your favourite pink dress or matching set, add heels and oversized sunglasses, then finish with heart jewelry.

Bonus points for a personalized BARBIE necklace.

SassyBirds it with:

Love Heart Necklace, Heart Earrings, Retro Heart Sunglasses Pin and heart-shaped sunglasses. Polish off the look with our Aura Glow Bag in Pink.

Queen of Hearts ❤️👑

The look:

Off with their heads!

Go red, black and white for this wonderfully easy Alice in Wonderland-inspired costume.

Add a small crown, dramatic red lipstick and a heart painted onto your cheek.

SassyBirds it with:

Love Heart Maxi Necklace, Heart Earrings and Black or Red Heart Sunglasses.

The White Rabbit 🐇⏱️

The look:

Another trip down the rabbit hole…

Start with white clothing, add bunny ears and carry a pocket watch or little clock.

A bunny pin finishes the look — and unlike the bunny ears, you'll probably wear it again.

SassyBirds it with:

White Bunny or Rabbit Bunny Pins and our Pink Heart Sunglasses.

Snow White 🍎

The look:

One of the easiest Disney-inspired looks to create from everyday clothing.

Pair a blue top with a yellow skirt or pants, add a red headband or bow and — most importantly — an apple.

Our Apple Pin with its cheeky little worm makes this one particularly fun.

SassyBirds it with:

Apple Pin with Worm.

Flower Power Girl 🌼✌️

The look:

Peace, love and fabulous accessories.

Dig out your flared jeans, colourful shirt, mini dress or anything vaguely '60s/'70s. Add round or heart-shaped sunglasses and flowers wherever you can fit them.

SassyBirds it with:

Bloom jewelry,  LOVE Retro Pin, flower hair clip and heart sunglasses.

Candy Girl 🍭💗

The look:

Possibly the sweetest Halloween costume on the list.

Build your look around bright pinks, pastels and candy colours. Add colourful makeup, hair clips and an oversized lollipop if you're feeling extra.

SassyBirds it with:

Lollipop Pins, flower hair clip and bloom flower midi earrings in lilac. Add a colourful Personalized Name Necklace in candy confetti and our sea shell lilac sunglasses.

 

 

 

 

Cat Girl 🐈⬛

The look:

The ultimate last-minute Halloween costume exists for a reason.

Black top. Black pants. Cat ears. Eyeliner whiskers.

Five minutes later: Halloween-ready.

SassyBirds it with:

Cat & Butterfly Earrings add pizzazz! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cruella-Inspired Dog Lover 🐶🖤🤍

The look:

Dress in dramatic black and white, add red lipstick and pile on the dog accessories.

Rather than choosing just one, cluster several dog pins together on a blazer, jacket or bag for a fabulously over-the-top look.

SassyBirds it with:

Our Retro Dog necklace plus Terrier, Dachshund, Pug, Husky and Dog Mirror Pins.

 

 

 

 

 

Teddy Bear 🧸

The look:

Cute Halloween beats scary Halloween sometimes.

Dress head-to-toe in brown, tan or cream, add bear ears and a little nose with makeup.

SassyBirds it with:

Kawaii Teddy Bear Pin or Necklace.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tropical Bird 🦜🌴

The look:

Halloween doesn't have to be dark and spooky.

Go in the completely opposite direction with bright colours, feathers, tropical makeup and statement jewelry.

SassyBirds it with:

Let our Seashell Sunglasses & our Pink Parrot necklace or bird necklaces set the scene! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

21. Rock Star 🎸⭐

The look:

This costume is all about attitude.

Leather jacket, black jeans, boots and oversized sunglasses give you the foundation. Add metallic or statement jewelry and a personalized necklace with your imaginary stage name.

Then spend the entire evening behaving as though you're avoiding the paparazzi.

SassyBirds it with: Music-inspired jewelry, Starlight pieces and a Personalized Name Necklace.

Make Your Personalized Necklace Part of the Costume

Here's where Halloween gets really fun.

Instead of simply wearing your usual name, make your Personalized Name Necklace part of your costume.

Try:

WITCH — black
BARBIE — pink
ANGEL — white or pearl
DEVIL — red
BOO — orange or black
DISCO — silver mirror
COWGIRL — pink mirror
PRINCESS — gold mirror
BRIDE — white or pearl
VAMPIRE — red or black
STAR — gold or silver mirror
MAGIC — purple

With 25+ colours and finishes to play with, your necklace can become part of the costume rather than just an accessory.

The Best Halloween Costume Might Already Be in Your Closet

You don't necessarily need a packaged costume to create a great Halloween look.

Start with an idea. Shop your closet. Add a hat, some makeup and one or two accessories that make the character instantly recognizable.

Best of all, choose jewelry and accessories you'll actually want to wear again once the pumpkins have disappeared.

Because Halloween may only last one night.

Great jewelry doesn't.

Happy Halloween, SassyBirds. 🎃🖤

Your Style. Your Story. Your SassyBirds.
