5 Halloween Costume Ideas That Are Only Slightly Basic

If I’m being real, as a serial procrastinator, I’m all for a mainstream Halloween costume that I can just slap together at the last second, but obviously it’s the way cooler move to have costume that pretty much no one else is wearing.

If you’re tired of seeing 10 million Harley Quinns & Fembots, here are five Halloween costume ideas that are definitely less basic.

Crazy Steve from Drake and Josh

Lol I knew this one may be a little tough to see the vision for, so I included some references on how to make this slightly more feminine. But on the bright side, I feel like every one loved Drake and Josh, so they will know the reference immediately when they see the red Premier vest.

Hannah Montana

Okay, maybe this costume might have been basic when we all were in elementary school in 2007, but now I feel like definitely less people would think to pull up as Hannah Montana. Also, this costume is fun if you're brunette and want to throw on a wig and be a blonde for the night. Hannah Montana will always be iconic.

The Nanny

I used to love The Nanny so much on Nick at Nite when I was growing up and I feel like Fran always had the best outfits. But, obviously for a Halloween costume, you have to do this cheetah number from the pilot episode because I feel like that's what she's really known for.

Rodrick Heffley from Diary of a Wimpy Kid

If you're feeling like being in your emo era this Halloween, this is definitely the costume for you. It's pretty funny and easy to pull off & everyone will know who you are.

Sharpay Evans

This is somewhat similar to the Hannah Montana idea, but I can't help that I love all of the old Disney channel shows and movies. There's a ton of super cute looks you could do for Sharpay, but these are the two that really stand out to me (especially her golf outfit from HSM2). 

Also on a side note, I know she was meant to be the villain in the HSM movies, but honestly she was the one who was actually exuding the main character energy. Justice for Sharpay.
