Bookish Halloween Costumes Day 7 (The Selection Series)

 Bookish Halloween Costumes Day 7

 
My goal for these Bookish Halloween Costumes is giving you ideas that you already have in your closet. Some of the things that I put up there might be far fetched as to what you have around, but who knows?
 
These are a little far fetched as to things you might have around the house......But still, the dresses are GORGEOUS!
 


 
 
Let me know in the comments below what you would add to this look, or if you decide to be one of these characters, shoot me a picture on twitter @embookbutterfly I would love to see it!
 
 
***Note*** All of these bookish costumes are to my best memory what the character would wear in the book (or what I imagine they were wearing).....I don't claim to be an expert of the characters different fashion tastes. I am just here to offer cheap and sensible options for an awesome costume that will celebrate all of your bookishness (and mine!)

Anne would especially work if you have red hair.....This one would also be pretty simple since you most likely have a maxi skirt and a button down shirt.
 
Puffed sleeves :-)

I really enjoyed Rites of Passage, and recreating what (I imagine) Sam was wearing in the book shouldn't be that hard....
This was my idea:

Bookish Halloween Costumes Day 3

 
My goal for these Bookish Halloween Costumes is giving you ideas that you already have in your closet. Some of the things that I put up there might be far fetched as to what you have around, but who knows?
 
If you have read Throne of Glass, then you know that Celaena is awesome. She just is....And if you haven't read Throne of Glass, then I suggest you do immediately (and then come back here and tell me what you thought!)
 
(Celaena is probably hiding something behind that hairclip no?)
 
 
 
This is what I imagined Celaena would wear while at the court of the king....

Bookish Halloween Costumes Day 2 (Gallagher Girls)

Bookish Halloween Costumes Day 2

My goal for these Bookish Halloween Costumes is giving you ideas that you already have in your closet. Some of the things that I put up there might be far fetched as to what you have around, but who knows?
 
What better way to celebrate Halloween than being your favorite spy? Believe me, most people have a plaid skirt lying around somewere, and pair it with a sweater, a blazer, or just a button down shirt you have a Gallagher Girl.
Better yet, if you have a red strapless dress around, you can go as Cammie in a certain scene :-)
 
Below are some costume suggestions for different ways to be Cammie, but if you customize just a few simple different ways, you could definitely change these to be a different Gallagher Girl!
