Check out the 24 best celebrity Halloween costumes »

If a tree falls and no one hears it, did it happen? And by tree falling, we mean dressing up for Halloween. The lurking on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter are a highlight that comes each year on November 1st (at least for us, that is), and celebrities are not left out of this equation. From Kim Kardashian dressed as a blonde curvy mermaid to Anna Dello Russo winning Halloween as an haute couture wearing Pope, celebrity costumes are an extra treat to look at after eating all the treats. Other delightful costumed appearances came from the Brant brothers, Kate Moss, Miley Cyrus (or is that Nikki Minaj), Gwen Stefani, and so many more. So take a look and try to relive the spookiest night of the year with these stars.

The spookiest night of the year has arrived and with the help of hurricane Sandy on the East Coast, it’s even creepier than normal. But what would a Halloween be without listening to Michael Jackson’s Thriller or doing the Monster Mash (or the Monthter Mathsh)? Not a real Halloween, that’s for sure. Because we’re basically […]

If you don’t have your Halloween costume yet, it’s safe to say that you are a major procrastinator. Because we may just be guilty of the same offense from time to time, we’re here to lend a helping hand and come up with some final costume ideas for tomorrow’s Halloween festivities. To make it (relatively) easy, we’ve plucked inspiration from some of the most recognizable faces that we see every day, fashion and style bloggers BryanBoy, Man Repeller’s Leandra Medine, Tavi Gevinson, I Want I Got’s Anita Clarke and the Beckerman sisters.

The best part of dressing up like a blogger for Halloween? Your costume shouldn’t require many extra purchases, and you can take fashion risks with styling that you might not be inclined to try regularly. Whether you want to sport Mickey Mouse ears like BryanBoy or an oversized pair of sunglasses á la Anita Clarke, these costumes are as easy as pie.

TGIF, folks! We’ve spent our week finding simple and super awesome (if we do say so ourselves) costume ideas from Marc Jacobs to Kristen Stewart every day all week, and on Fridays, we wear pink (we know the line is technically Wednesday, but work with us here). And more pink than your eyes can probably handle, because today’s edition of Halloween costumes is all about dressing like the most stylish child in Hollywood, Miss Suri Cruise.

There’s a fine line that those who attempt this costume will tread and it’s between looking like an actual child or like an adult with a weird pink obsession. Suri pulls this look off because, she’s six, so it is essential for this costume to be complimented by a tiny kids purse (stuffed with candy), an oversized teddy bear and minimal makeup. Bonus points will be awarded to those who can convince someone to carry them around like a child.

Let the costume scramble continue! If you’re going out this weekend dressed as someone you’re not, chances are you’re pulling together and crafting like crazy. We’ve been here for you all week with Lana Del Rey, Marc Jacobs, and Kristen Stewart and now, what we can only assume will be a homerun this Halloween: Kimye.

Yup, that’s right, Kanye West and Kim Kardashian (couple costume alert!). As with most of our ingenious costume ideas, the combo look is simple and easy to find on a short notice. For Kim it’s all about the beauty and the booty—clothing should be as tight as humanly possible (butt padding for bonus points) and natural eyelashes need to be hidden by the most aggressively long pair of fakes possible. For Kanye, keep it in leather and keep it in black—leather pants with a Givenchy Rottweiler Tee are the keys to keeping up with Yeezy. Hold hands everywhere you go and gaze deep into each other’s eyes, because after all, it’s love, you guys.

There are seven days until all hollow’s eve and if our suggestions for becoming Kristen Stewart or Marc Jacobs weren’t enough for you, today we bring you the easiest Lana Del Rey costume possible.

To truly become the sultry songstress, this look is all about volume. Who would Lana Del Rey be without the poutiest pout around and biggest hair on the block? Just another gal, that’s who. So keep your shorts small, your t-shirt tied in a knot, your hair huge and you’ve got the look. Or, to make it super legit, add a biker gang to emulate her latest video.

Next up on our Fashionable DIY costume series, is a one Marc Jacobs. The mastermind known for creating trends with Warholian tendencies at Marc Jacobs, Marc by Marc Jacobs and Louis Vuitton, is known for taking the same approach to his body and style.

Enter, the costume idea. Marc wore a bright pink Lacoste dress to Louis Vuitton – Marc Jacobs: The Exhibition in March, which showed off his toned body (seriously, he’s so fit) and some of his cartoon inspired tattoos. We’re not saying to get matching permanent tattoos, but here’s a good opportunity to grab your most artistic pal and let them doodle all over you for one night of the year. From Spongebob Square Pants to the Simpson’s character drawn after him, you’ll be sporting by far the most fashion genius look of the night.

Today marks the unofficial start to the “what are you dressing up as for Halloween?” question period. Since we’d hate to leave you without a clue, we’re here with another week full of fashionable and culturally relevant costumes to leading up to the spookiest night of the year.

To kick things off, we’d thought we’d go topical and select Kristen Stewart post break-up scandal. She made her first appearance post-scandal in the Toronto Pearson International Airport decked out in Robert Pattinson’s old clothing (because the only thing better than wearing your boyfriend’s oversized wears, is wearing your very publicly wounded heartthrob ex boyfriend’s wears). The look is simple to replicate, all you need is some boyfriend gear and a dismayed look of disappointment glued to your face. There’s no need to pretend to be her character Bella when her current life offers more entertainment.

They’re just like us! Hollywood’s and fashion’s best were out over the weekend and last night celebrating Halloween in Marvel, Disney, and trash TV style. Despite some lacklustre outings from the likes of Lindsay Lohan (what else is new?) and Paris Hilton, who all gave it the ole “I just want to be sexy” college try, we picked our 6 favourites. So, who takes the cake?

Today’s the big day—but it’s not too late to pull a costume together for Halloween. Throughout last week we brought you how-to guides for some very fashionable costumes: Karl Lagerfeld, Katy Perry, Mick and Bianca Jagger, Anna Dello Russo, Nicki Minaj, and the cast of Rocky Horror Picture Show.

If you already dressed up this weekend, we want to see your Halloween pictures! Did you go as a fashion icon, a celebrity, or something else? Share your costume with us on Facebook and Twitter! Happy Halloween!

We’re dubbing today “Pink Friday” because it’s the last day of our Fashion’ween week and Super Bass songstress Nicki Minaj is our final costume. Known for her extremely eccentric outfits and better-than-the-boys lyrical prowess, it was almost impossible to define a single look for Minaj. (We can’t even decide which one of her wigs is our favourite!) The trick to becoming this superstar is in the combinations: overload on patterns, textures, and colours—and do it all with Minaj’s signature doe-eyed smile.

For our fourth day of Fashion’ween, we bring you the ultimate icon for show-stopping dress up: none other than Vogue Nippon editrix, Anna Dello Russo. Famed for her many fantastical getups, the key to authenticating Dello Russo’s look is easier than it looks—it’s all about the mini dress, the sparkle, the tan, and the larger-than-life hair accessory.
