22 Last-Minute Barbie Halloween Costumes You Can Grab Now

Oct 24, 2023

Our time in Barbieland is far from over because Halloween is right around the corner! Because everything in the Barbie universe is totally dependent on imagination, just about anything is possible when it comes to your outfit of choice. So whether you're going stag, or you're looking for the greatest group Halloween costume ever, you'll love these Barbie Halloween costumes.

The best part is, they're easy to make for yourself thanks to thrift stores and closet swaps. That way, you save some money and have a lot more fun. If you don't have time to organize a closet swap, we've also included some online shopping alternatives!

Cowgirl Barbie

All you really need for a killer cowgirl costume is an outfit that's got lots of pink and some Western flair. Barbie mentions in the movie that she loves denim (Ken's more of a fringe man himself), so feel free to grab some pink jeans — and even a pink denim vest — to go with your pink cowgirl boots.

If you can't find the perfect cowgirl hat, just make it yourself! Find a good cream colored hat to use as the base, and decorate it with a ribbon or two for a pop of color.

Barbie Movie Women's Barbie Cowgirl Costume

If you want to grab a premade costume to cut down on your pre-Halloween prep time (there are snacks to make, after all), then opt for a jumpsuit + bandana combo. You'll stay comfortable and still look groovy.

Gingham Barbie

When the first look at the movie dropped, creators like Cat Quinn immediately recognized the Wizard of Oz Easter egg in Barbie's gingham dress. Instead of two braids and ruby slippers like Dorothy (unless you're doing a gingham group costume, in which case, go off sis!), add pink kitten heels, a hair bow, charm bracelets, and some flower jewelry to complete the look!

Barbie Pink Gingham Dress

The best part about grabbing a pink gingham dress for your Barbie Halloween costume is that it is very cute and very versatile — you'll get a ton of wear out of it after Halloween's over!

Rollerblade Barbie

(L-r) MARGOT ROBBIE as Barbie and RYAN GOSLING as Ken and in Warner Bros. Pictures’ “BARBIE,” a Warner Bros. Pictures release. Image via Atsushi Nishijima/Warner Bros.

This iconic look (which you can directly recreate with our Barbie costume tutorial!!) is one of the first images of the movie that we got to see, and it's the perfect 'fit for anyone who loves to rollerblade since you'll get use out of the skates and pads again!

Pink biker shorts are easy to find, and thanks to Impala, you can also grab a screen-accurate pair of neon skates. The multi-colored bodysuit is incredible, if you'd rather wear a tank, that works just as well. Your Ken can grab matching shorts!

Roller Blade Barbie Costume

If you're detail-oriented and you want to make sure your whole outfit matches down to the fabric shades, you might want to opt for a premade roller blade costume. This one comes with a leotard, visor, elbow pads, and knee pads so you don't have to worry about all the accessories.

Weird Barbie

(L-r) MARGOT ROBBIE as Barbie and KATE MCKINNON as Barbie in Warner Bros. Pictures’ “BARBIE,” a Warner Bros. Pictures release. Image via Warner Bros.

Pink babydoll dresses are all over the internet, and with some fabric paint, you can add an array of rainbow designs. Graphic eyeliner and hair chalk will give you that already-iconic beauty look, and for a hilarious final touch, pair one Birkenstock sandal with one ballet shoe (in lieu of a heel).

Kate McKinnon Weird Barbie Costume

This colorful dress + mesh lining will be instantly recognizable against a lineup of Stereotypical Barbie Halloween costumes, and since Weird Barbie loves to stand out, it's incredibly in character.

1960s Barbie

If temps won't cool down by the time Halloween rolls around, opt for this vintage Barbie look. Red nail polish and white cat eye sunglasses are easy accessories to source. Bonus points if you find the perfect striped dress — you can use it after the holiday is over.

Handmade Margot Robbie Swimsuit

If you'd rather spend your Halloween by the pool (relatable), opt for a handmade swimsuit that will still let you dress up. This one also comes with a pair of super cute sunglasses!

Pink Jumpsuit Barbie

(L-r) MARGOT ROBBIE as Barbie, ALEXANDRA SHIPP as Barbie, MICHAEL CERA as Allan, ARIANA GREENBLATT as Sasha and AMERICA FERRERA as Gloria in Warner Bros. Pictures’ “BARBIE,” a Warner Bros. Pictures release. Image via Warner Bros. Pictures

The easiest friend or family group Halloween costume ever? Barbie pink jumpsuits. Accessorize with sunglasses and hair pieces of all colors, shapes, and sizes and you're golden. Or add a pair of headphones and go as Greta Gerwig!

Women's Short Sleeve Button-Front Boilersuit

We'd recommend grabbing a nicer jumpsuit or boilersuit for your Barbie Halloween costume so that you get more use out of it than a single night. Wear it sandals, sneakers, or your favorite slippers if you're staying in :).

More Barbie Halloween Costumes

Sailor Barbie

One of my favorite things about Barbie is that all of the costumes feel very accessible and easy to replicate any time of year. Thank you Jacqueline Durran! Case in point: a pink striped shirt is the perfect pop of color at the office, but pair it with a pink captain cap and earrings and you're instantly recognizable as Sailor Barbie!

Blue Barbie Halloween Costume

Blue Cosplay Dress ($94)

When Margot Robbie's Barbie goes to get help from Weird Barbie, she wears a 1960s, sophisticated-yet-playful minidress that will be perfect for fall — especially when paired with loafers.

Blowout Party Barbie + Ken

(L-r) RYAN GOSLING as Ken and MARGOT ROBBIE as Barbie in Warner Bros. Pictures’ “BARBIE,” a Warner Bros. Pictures release. Image via Jaap Buitendijk/Warner Bros.

My favorite look of the film is Barbie's blowout party look. Sequins! Metallic heels! The bounciest hair I have literally ever seen! If you're very committed to authenticity, you can sew or hot glue sequins to a creamy jumpsuit to make sure you have the same pattern that Margot Robbie's Barbie does here, but you can also opt for a pre-made sequined jumpsuit.

Add a gold belt to a white jumpsuit for an easy Ken look!

Denim Ken

RYAN GOSLING as Ken in Warner Bros. Pictures’ “BARBIE,” a Warner Bros. Pictures release. Image via Jaap Buitendijk

Rock this vest-and-jeans Canadian tuxedo for a low-key Halloween look (bonus points if you have "KEN" boxers!). It's super easy and super comfortable. SUBLIME!

Beach Barbies

(L-r) ANA CRUZ KAYNE as Barbie, SHARON ROONEY as Barbie, ALEXANDRA SHIPP as Barbie, MARGOT ROBBIE as Barbie, HARI NEF as Barbie and EMMA MACKEY as Barbie in Warner Bros. Pictures’ “BARBIE,” a Warner Bros. Pictures release. Image via Warner Bros.

For beachy Barbie, opt for bright colors and patterns like polka dots, stripes, and ginghams. You also can't go wrong with a visor! If you want to go as beachy Sterotypical Barbie, a pair of high waisted cream shorts and a blue and white polo tank will set you apart.

I Am Kenough

My entire theater lost it when Ryan Gosling appeared onscreen wearing a "I Am Kenough" hoodie, and grabbing one for yourself will definitely be the coziest Halloween costume ever! If you don't want to spend $60, there are plenty of options on Etsy.

Ken's Mojo Dojo Casa House Look

(L-r) RYAN GOSLING as Ken and MARGOT ROBBIE as Barbie in Warner Bros. Pictures’ “BARBIE,” a Warner Bros. Pictures release. Image via Warner Bros.

A black bandana, sunglasses, a horse necklace, and a fur coat. Who would have thought this would become of the best looks from the Barbie movie? During Ken's patriarchy coup, he wears this equal-parts-ridiculous-and-incredible ensemble and there's a good chance you could find every piece at your local thrift shop.

Not A Barbie

AMERICA FERRERA as Gloria in Warner Bros. Pictures’ “BARBIE,” a Warner Bros. Pictures release. Image via Warner Bros.

If you're someone who doesn't like to go all-out with our costumes (or for those moments when it's not appropriate to show up in a sparkly pink cowgirl suit) take inspo from America Ferrera's character Gloria! Grab a cute button down and killer sunglasses and you're gold.

Camping Barbie

(L-R) RYAN GOSLING as Ken and MARGOT ROBBIE as Barbie in Warner Bros. Pictures’ “BARBIE,” a Warner Bros. Pictures release. Image via Jaap Buitendijk/Warner Bros.

Grab your favorite pink bandana for this look because it's a super easy option you can wear to the office and to your Halloween party. Spatula encouraged.

Allan

(L-R) MICHAEL CERA as Allan, EMMA MACKEY as Barbie and NCUTI GATWA as Ken in Warner Bros. Pictures’ “BARBIE,” a Warner Bros. Pictures release. Image via Warner Bros. Pictures.

He might not be Ken, but thanks to the Barbie movie, Allan is now just as iconic!! You'll be instantly recognizable with a striped shirt and blue shorts combo.

2. Hot glue the white rectangular shapes to the feathers, then glue the feathers to one another to create a fan shape.

3. Glue a horizontal strip of cardboard to the back of the feathers to help them stand upright.

4. Hot glue a piece of felt to each edge of the feathers and attach a strip of One-Wrap Velcro that is long enough to wrap around your dog’s belly.

5. Cut out a gobble from red felt and attach some One-Wrap Velcro.

Draw 12 long feathers on your yellow felt. Stack the yellow felt on top of the orange felt and cut out your feathers. Cut 12 white curved rectangular pieces to accent the feathers.

17 Wellness Trends We're Excited To Try In 2025

Wellness in 2025is not just about personal health, but also the spaces we live in. The latest trends in wellness focus on a holistic approach that balances the body, mind, and your environment. From smart technologies to ancient healing practices, these 17 wellness trends are set to transform how we care for ourselves and our homes. Whether you’re looking to improve your mental health, your physical well-being, or simply create a more nurturing space, these trends will help you experience 2025 with a healthier, more balanced lifestyle.

Here are 17 wellness trends we're excited about in 2025.

Digital Detox Retreats

Darina Belonogova

The constant need to check emails, texts, and social media has led to burnout and stress. The American Psychological Associations' Stress in America survey found that a fifth of U.S. adults cited technology use as a significant source of stress in their life. Constantly being plugged in can affect both our mental and physical health. Taking a conscious break from screens to reconnect with ourselves and others will become a necessity in 2025. Expect even wellness retreats to offer more phone-free spaces and adventures. (See The White Lotus season 3, episode 1!). Whether it’s an hour a day or a weekend getaway, we allow our minds to rest and reduce the overwhelming feeling caused by information overload.

Saunas Everywhere

At-home saunas are the latest self care status symbol and will continue to trend into 2025 as they become more affordable (this portable sauna from Target is only $150!). Urban saunas, floating saunas, even speed-dating saunas are bringing this ancient tradition back and making it more accessible. Sauna blankets help improve circulation, detoxification through sweating, and relaxation of muscles and joints. A regular sauna routine can help reduce stress, promote better sleep, and boost heart health. The heat is also good for skin and your body's recover post-workout. Community saunas and bathhouses are also gaining in popularity, especially among younger generations who prefer the social aspect with phones and other distractions.

Train Travel

Trains are competing with spas and resorts to offer wellness-focused journeys. London's LNER Wellness Train offers activities like knitting, macrame, doodling, meditation, and games. The Golden Chariot in South India offers a spa and fitness experience while the Royal Scotsman has a Dior Spa Carriage and offers views of the Scottish Highlands for a low-stress travel experience.

Gentle Workouts

Scarlett Alexandra DeGregorio

High-impact exercises can often leave our bodies feeling strained. By incorporating gentle exercise into your fitness routine, you allow your body to move in a way that reduces stress and tension. Workouts like yoga, pilates, or walking, help you become more in tune with your breathing and heart rate, which helps you feel calm. It's a great way to reach your 2025 fitness goals while also improving your mental health.

AI-Driven Wellness Devices

Kaboompics.com

Biohacking wellness trends like tracking sleep, nutrition, and exercise are helping people optimize their health and potentially their life span. According to a recent McKinsey report, more than 60 percent of people have said it’s extremely or very important to purchase longevity products, and 70 percent are planning to buy more products in the future. Wearable robotics are continuing to drive this trend, and allowing more people to turn their healthcare into a lifestyle, rather than waiting for an annual checkup. People are also using at-home diagnostic tools and e-health services to manage their health at home.

Smarter Supplements

According to SuperAge, supplements are getting smarter, more personalized, and adaptive to individual needs, thanks to AI, biomarker testing, and genetic insights. Formulas targeting menopause, hormonal balance, and fertility are becoming a major focus for women's health too. Shop immunity supplements, nootropics (for focus and memory), multivitamins and more on Amazon's health and wellness site.

Wellness Gardens

Billie Lentz

Wellness gardens are the perfect escape from the bustle of daily life, and can promote health and wellness with thoughtfully curated elements like aromatic plants, water features, and comfortable seating. Greenery, soothing sounds, and sitting outdoors in nature can encourage you to be more mindful and less stressed while homegrown food, herbs, and edible flowers nourish you for the season.

Functional Medicine

Cora Pursley

Functional medicine is a personalized, science-based approach to healthcare that focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of disease rather than just treating symptoms. It considers genetics, lifestyle, and environmental factors to create individualized treatment plans, emphasizing nutrition, gut health, and holistic wellness for long-term health and disease prevention. Functional foods are nutrient-rich foods that provide health benefits beyond basic nutrition — so foods filled with vitamins, minerals, fiber, antioxidants, or probiotics to support digestion, boost immunity, or reduce inflammation. Examples include fermented foods like yogurt and kimchi, which promote gut health, or fatty fish like salmon, rich in omega-3s, which support heart health. Next time you food shop, look out for these foods and incorporate them into daily meals to enhance your overall wellness and help prevent chronic health conditions.

Light Therapy

Jemilla Mills-Smith

An estimated 10 million Americans are affected by Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), according to Psychology Today. Designing your home for better natural light, especially in winter, can help regulate the body’s circadian rhythm, improving sleep quality and energy levels. Use sheer curtains in active spaces like the kitchen, living room, and home office, and open up blinds to allow as much natural light in, stimulating vitamin D production to keep bone health and immune function in check. Mentally, natural light has been shown to boost mood, reduce stress, and alleviate symptoms of depression by increasing serotonin levels. It can also improve focus, productivity, and creativity while you work. For long winter nights, invest in a light therapy lamp too.

Wellness Journaling

Hannah Newberry

Wellness journaling helps you track your physical, emotional, and mental well-being. By documenting your daily habits, moods, and goals, you can start to see patterns, manage stress, and focus mindfulness and on your personal growth. Check out this Papier journal for tracking your 2025 wellness goals.

Smart Indoor Air Monitors

Mikhail Nilov

Improving indoor air quality is so important for a healthy home. According to the EPA, Americans, on average, spend approximately 90 percent of their time indoors, where the concentrations of pollutants can be 2 to 5 times higher than they are outdoors. Open windows when possible or use air purifiers with HEPA filters to reduce allergens, dust, and pollutants. Houseplants like snake plants and spider plants can also help purify the air naturally. Regularly clean and vacuum to keep dust mites and mold at bay, and avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that release volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Invest in a smart air quality monitor to give yourself peace of mind.

Water Filtration Systems

Ron Lach

Home water filtration is becoming a vital wellness trend, as people seek cleaner, safer drinking water. Advanced filtration systems remove contaminants like chlorine, lead, and bacteria, and eco-conscious designs, such as reverse osmosis and carbon filters, improve water quality while reducing our reliance on bottled water. Shower filtration systems are a great way to keep chlorine, heavy metals, and other impurities out of your tap water, which can cause dryness, irritation, and dullness. Have dry skin or scalp? Shower filters help maintain skin’s natural moisture barrier and can be gentler on sensitive skin.

Sleep Divorcing

Photo by Kampus Production

A sleep divorce, when you sleep in separate beds or rooms to get a better night's sleep, can save your marriage. While it may sound extreme, many couples find that it improves both their sleep and relationship. Snoring, differing sleep schedules, or constant tossing and turning can keep you and your partner up all night, leading to fatigue and irritability (never great for communication). Sleep divorce is about prioritizing your health and theirs, and many couples report feeling more refreshed, connected, and happier in their relationships as a result. Not ready for a sleep divorce? Try this Scandinavian sleep method.

Modern Pilgrimaging

Spencer Wirkkala

Modern pilgrimages, where you or you with a group travel to a sacred or meaningful site, nature retreat, or cultural landmark, with an emphasis on mindfulness, inner growth, and personal transformation, are forecasted to grow in 2025 as more people seek community and the great outdoors. Many people seek these experiences as a way to disconnect from daily routines, practice meditation, or explore new spiritual perspectives.

Dry Brushing

Vlada Karpovich

I always think of Gwyneth Paltrow when I think of dry brushing. She showed us during her typical Goop-inspired shower routine that she never takes a shower without one. It simply involves brushing your skin with a natural-bristle brush to exfoliate dead cells and stimulate circulation. It can help improve skin texture, unclog pores, and promote lymphatic drainage, which supports detoxification. Regular dry brushing may reduce the appearance of cellulite, increase energy, and leave the skin feeling smoother and more refreshed. For best results, brush before your shower for max benefits.

Sexual Health

Ketut Subiyanto

Sexual wellness is becoming less taboo for 2025. As conversations around sexual health become more normalized, products and services like sex education, therapy, and health-enhancing products will become more accessible. Trends include the rise of personalized sexual health solutions, such as tailored supplements and tech-enabled devices for a better sex life. Platforms offering education, therapy, and community support will also grow, empowering us to explore our sexual wellness in a holistic, shame-free way.

Wild Swimming

Büşranur Aydın

Water wellness, a growing trend in 2025, emphasizes the health benefits of hydration and water-based therapies, like hydrotherapy (hot baths, cold plunges, steam rooms) to relieve pain, improve circulation, and reduce stress. Float therapy (a float tank filled with Epsom salt water), mineral baths using magnesium and sulfur to detoxify the body, and swimming in hot springs for relaxation, muscle tension relief, and improving circulation are giving rise to the therapeutic benefits of our natural waters.

Here's Your First Look At Jennifer Love Hewitt In The 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' Sequel

If you're a 90s movies (and horror movies) lover, you might agree that nothing beats an old school slasher. I Know What You Did Last Summer, which stars Jennifer Love Hewitt, Sarah Michelle Gellar, and Freddie Prinze Jr., premiered in 1997, combines everything we love about coming of age movies — friends, summer vacation, and drama — with just enough terror to send a chill down your spine. And just like the original, the new I Know What You Did Last Summer features some of the hottest names in Hollywood.

Everything you need to know about the new I Know What You Did Last Summer sequel movie, coming to theaters July 18, 2025.

Is there a 3rd I Know What You Did Last Summer?

Columbia Pictures

Yes, a brand new I Know What You Did Last Summer is coming to theaters this summer. But just because it's a new film doesn't mean it won't have plenty of nostalgia.

"There's lots of '90s in there, so get excited because the '90s are back again!" Jennifer Love Hewitt, who's returning for the movie, told People. "And there's lots of twists and turns. I don't think people are going to expect anything that's coming. It's a really fun ride."

"We approached it like super fans, so I think people are going to be really happy," writer-director Jennifer Kaytin Robinson added. "All the things that you want to see in this movie, you're going to see in this movie."

Who's in the I Know What You Did Last Summer cast?

Brook Rushton/Sony Pictures

In the new I Know What You Did Last Summer, five friends accidentally cause a deadly car accident and agree to keep the secret forever. But when someone starts terrorizing them the next year, they reach out to Julie and Ray for help. And Jennifer Love Hewitt can't get enough of this new "phenomenal" cast!

"It's for them to make it their own and for me to stand by like a proud mom and say, 'It's yours now, take it and run and enjoy,'" she told People.

"When you get a group of young actors together, it can be a recipe for disaster oftentimes," Chase Sui Wonders added. "But everyone in this cast just brought it to the nth degree. We all got along so well. The chemistry between us was so fun and natural and seamless."

Do Revenge's Jennifer Kaytin Robinson is directing and co-writing alongside Sam Lansky.

When is I Know What You Did Last Summer coming out?

The new movie will hit theaters July 18, 2025.

6 Easy Ways To Make Your Home Smell Amazing

My favorite part about spring is finally being able to open the windows and let the fresh air in. The sound of birds chirping and the scent of jasmine drifting inside instantly lifts my mood. It’s not just in my head too — studies show that scent, emotion, and memory are deeply intertwined. A familiar fragrance can bring back happy memories and boost your mood, while unpleasant odors can do the opposite. If you're craving that same fresh feeling all year round, here are a few easy ways to infuse your home with your favorite scents without a lot of effort.

Here are six easy ways to make your home smell amazing.

1. Simmer Your Scent

Toss sliced oranges, lemons, cinnamon sticks, cloves, and a sprig of rosemary into a pot of water. Let it gently simmer on the stove, and your home will smell like a cozy spa-meets-bakery hybrid. Try different combos like apple + star anise or lavender + lemon.

2. Clean With Scented, Sustainable Cleaners

Start with a clean, fresh canvas for spring by giving your home a good scrub. I'm in love with Homecourt scents (Courtney Cox's brand of cleaners), including the Neroli Leaf and Cipres Mint, all made with sustainable ingredients.

Or try this DIY citrus + herb air spray. In a spray bottle, combine:

1 cup distilled water
1 tbsp witch hazel (to help disperse oils)
10–15 drops of essential oils (like lemon, grapefruit, or eucalyptus)
Optional: a few sprigs of fresh rosemary or mint

Shake well and spritz around the house for a burst of freshness.

3. Bake!

Nothing beats the smell of fresh-baked cookies and breads. Here's an even easier way to trick your nose: warm a teaspoon of vanilla extract in the oven at 300°F for 15–20 minutes. It gives off a sweet, bakery-like scent with zero effort.

4. DIY A Scented Carpet Refresher

Mix 1 cup of baking soda with 10–15 drops of essential oil (lavender, tea tree, or cedarwood work well). Sprinkle over rugs or carpets, let sit for 20 minutes, then vacuum. It lifts odors and leaves behind a soft, lingering scent.

5. Use Candles Or Diffuse Essential Oils

Choose essential oils like lavender, eucalyptus, lemon, or sweet orange for a clean, soothing scent. No diffuser? Add a few drops to a bowl of steaming water. These top-rated candles from Anthropologie are also a great way to set the mood and infuse the air with a friendly scent.

Bouqs

6. Bring in Fresh Flowers and Herbs

It's spring! Treat yourself to a flower subscription or grab a bouquet at Trader Joe's. Houseplants, bundles of eucalyptus in the shower, or even a vase of fresh basil on the kitchen counter can lightly scent your space while adding a touch of life and color.
