Since Halloween is just around the coroner (get it), there’s a good chance you are undecided on a costume and at the last minute might settle on dressing up as a Sexy Nurse.

Don’t fear! Or do, it’s Halloween I guess. We have some feminist friendly, and warm, costume ideas.

#1-Furiosa from Mad Max
All you need to do is forget to take your eye makeup off before you shower, roll in some dirt, and shave your head. No big!

#2 – Eleven from Stranger Things
Dressing up as Eleven is so easy even this baby did it. You just need some waffles, a bloody nose, a creepy pink dress and voila. You now have a reason to give people one word answers all day long. Finally.eleven

#3-Harley Quinn
This costume will definitely make use of all your old clothes from your pre-teen scene kid phase, don’t act like you don’t still have them.

#4-Ghostbusters
For you and your #squadgoal needs.

#5 – Rey from Star Wars
Duh! You just run around making light saber sounds *nyoom nyoom* and wrap yourself in a curtain 45 times. Those triple buns are fun, too. This costume is also great for people who don’t want to watch a makeup tutorial.

#6 – Beyonce & Nicki Minaj
Screw couple costumes – this one’s for you and your BFF. Who doesn’t want to be Slayonce and Queen Nicki?

#7 – Wednesday Addams
We all have enough black clothing in our closets to pull this off without a whole lot of shopping needing to be done. Let’s be real.

#8 – Spinelli from Recess
Toques, combat boots, and a leather jacket? Spinelli is actually quite the fall look.

#9 – Leeloo Dallas, Fifth Element
Don’t forget your multipass and to mention chicken a lot.
