Easy-to-Make Halloween Costumes
This was a last-minute costume that was created at 10 PM on October 30. It reflects my artistic views and my love for Halloween. Obviously, I am a mime and I even stayed in character for most of the day by not speaking. The top is my own and I did the make-up myself. The clothing is part of my daily wardrobe and worked out very nicely as my costume. The costume consists of a black and white striped turtleneck, black skinny jeans, patent leather open-toe shoes, and white gloves.

Costume Instructions
You might want to put on your shirt before doing hair and make-up, so it is not difficult to get into your shirt after--making sure that you be very careful when applying the make-up and not get your shirt dirty. Pants can be put on after hair and make-up.
make-up:
Using the black eyeliner, draw a diamond around each eye--making sure to line around the eyes as well. Take your mascara and apply to the eyelashes. Put the red lipstick on your lips.
Hair:
Make a deep side part to either side of your hair. Pin back any extra strands of hair (ie. relatively short bangs). Pull hair back into a low tight ball, preferably on the same side as your part. For example, if your hair is parted to the right, the ball should be on the right side of the lower part of your head (where the hairline meets the neck). Make sure to use hairspray to keep hair in place.
