66 Work-Appropriate Halloween Costumes For the Office

There are plenty of ways to make any Halloween costume work appropriate, whether it's by adding on some office-friendly layers or making an easy clothing swap, such as bike shorts for long pants. Depending on your inspiration (pop culture, cartoons, celebrities, etc.), start by considering your team's dress code, and then take the styling details from there - toning down certain elements as you see fit. Especially given how your atmosphere and coworkers might have adjusted since the pandemic, it's probably best to keep over-the-top accessories to a minimum. But that doesn't mean you can't have fun by keeping your outfit sensible and classy.

Consider a play on Jackie Kennedy, for example, who wore plenty of monochrome skirt suits, pillbox hats, gloves, headscarves, and '70s-shaped sunglasses, most of which you probably have lying around your closet. Or grab a colleague and be Cher Horowitz and Dionne Davenport from "Clueless." With the multitude of checked co-ords you can scoop up from popular retailers like ASOS, Zara, and H&M, you're sure to find something cute to fit the bill, which you can then repurpose later in your everyday wardrobe.

Finally, if most of your team is not yet back in the office and still calling into the party from Zoom or Hangouts, consider DIYing a headpiece, ears, crown, or hat to be anything from Audrey Hepburn in "Breakfast at Tiffany's" to a classic cat or mouse with a pair of ears and a simple LBD.

Ahead, find 66 different costume ideas with simple fashion hacks to prepare you for the upcoming Halloween season.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...

Katy Perry Takes Inspiration From "Kill Bill" in Yellow Moto Jacket and Low-Rise Jeans

Katy Perry is making the press rounds ahead of the upcoming season of "American Idol." On March 28, the competition judge and singer was spotted leaving "Good Morning America" in casual, off-duty street style that turned heads. She wore distressed, low-rise R13 Denim jeans that sat at her hips, as well as a white baby tee under a cropped leather Balenciaga jacket . With its thick black stripes running down the sleeves, the yellow race jacket was reminiscent of Uma Thurman 's iconic tracksuit in "Kill Bill." Wearing an assortment of rings on each of her left fingers, Perry also carried a yellow coffee cup with her other hand to match her jacket. As for the rest of her cool outfit, which was curated by stylist Tatiana Waterford , pointed black heels peeked out from the floor-length denim and sporty cat-eye sunglasses shielded the singer's eyes. The edgy ensemble was one of three outfits she wore on Tuesday. Perry arrived on the morning-show set ...
