10 Halloween Costume Ideas Inspired by Iconic Celebrity Fashion

If you’re still looking for Halloween costume ideas, one need look no further than celebrity style for plenty of DIY inspo. With a little imagination, closet rummaging, and a few new wardrobe additions, you can easily channel some of the biggest moments in fashion history (hello, J. Lo’s green Versace). Read on for nine iconic celeb styles you’ll want to relive this holiday.

1. Jennifer Lopez: No moment is arguably more iconic in red carpet history than the one that launched Google image search — literally. Though this Pretty Little Thing Ursie Tropical-Printed Maxi Dress ($62) is *slightly* less racy than J.Lo’s original Versace stunner, the print is a near-match. And, should you really want to go bold and do it up, there’s always scissors to make that V just a litttttle bit deeper! (Photo via Scott Gries/Getty)

2. Taylor Swift: Taylor Swift’s “LWYMMD” video introduced us to a whole new Tay (you know, seeing how the old one is dead and all), and as edgy as her updated style is, it’s actually pretty easy to achieve! Start with an ASOS Long-Sleeve Mesh Bodysuit ($40), then add Rue 21 Velvet High-Waisted Panties ($13 with bra set), Luxury Divas Stripe Thigh High Socks ($12), and Forever 21 Diamond Fishnet Tights ($7) to get your own Reputation as a master of disguise.

3. TLC: As Halsey proved when she paid homage to the ‘90s girl group on the 2017 Grammys red carpet, recreating TLC’s oversized pajama getup from their video for “Creep” is a cinch. Grab a pair of your favorite satin PJs or invest in a new pair, like the Pajama Gram’s Ruby Satin Pajamas ($70) abovem that you can wear long after Halloween ends. (Photo via Ron Galella/Getty)

4. Lady Gaga: Her *most* iconic fashion moment may have come in the form of her 2010 VMAs meat dress, but since we don’t particularly recommend wearing raw meat out on the town, we’ll settle for the next best thing — the red lace Alexander McQueen mini dress Lady Gaga wore the year before for the 2009 MTV Music Video Awards. This Charlotte Russe Floral Lace Bodycon ($25) takes care of the frock, and a quick trip to Michael’s for a little extra red lace fabric will make for the perfect covering for a tall black crown tiara ($6). (Photo via Christopher Polk)

5. Britney Spears: No Britney Spears red carpet moment is more memorable than when she stepped out in an all denim maxi to match then-boyfriend Justin Timberlake’s Canadian tuxedo. While you’ll be hard-pressed to find an exact replica for her dress (unless you’re Katy Perry, that is), this Suite 7 Halter Maxi ($100) will get the idea across as long as you’ve got the right accessories. Might we suggest this Forever 21 O-Ring Belt ($10) and Pretty Little Thing Lylia Chunky Jewel Choker ($22)? (Photo via Jeffrey Mayer/Getty)

6. Jessica Simpson: She practically became synonymous with Daisy Dukes, thanks to her role as Daisy in the 2005 remake of The Dukes of Hazzard — Jessica Simpson even had a wax figure made in her character’s likeness at Madame Tussaud’s. While you’ve likely already got most of the elements of this look in your wardrobe, pick up missing pieces, such as her uber-short shorts in the form of these Blank NYC Distressed Shorts ($88), a brown Nocona Swirl Stitching Floral Concho Western Belt ($50), red Jaliyah Heels ($60), and a SONOMA Goods for Life Essential V-Neck Tee in berries ($8). (Photo via The Dukes of Hazzard/Warner Bros. Pictures)

7. Beyonce: Beyoncé more or less broke the internet with her epic (and fashionable!) pregnancy photoshoot earlier this year, daring to bare in a lace bra and a pair of satin panties beneath a green veil of fabric. If you’re feeling bold, this Wicked Unlined Uplift Bra ($35) in Kir Retro Romance lace paired with a pair of ASOS Luxe Contrast Bind Shorts ($43) should aid in transforming you into Bey.

8. Victoria Beckham: Posh Spice has worn a LOT of memorable outfits over the years, but the one that always sticks out in our minds most is the zebra mini dress Victoria Beckham donned to the 2007 MTV Movie Awards. Lucky for us, the look is a simple one to recreate with this Motel Zebra Print Cami Dress ($48) and Maidenform Self Expressions Extreme Lift Tailored Bra in Fuchsia ($35). Voila! Pure aughts Posh. (Photo via Frederick M. Brown/Getty)

9. Lara Flynn Boyle: Fourteen years after Laura Flynn Boyle walked the Golden Globes carpet in designer David Cardona’s famous tutu dress, people are STILL talking about it. Cause your own buzz this Halloween with a similar looking custom-length shopVmarie Tutu Skirt ($55+) and an American Apparel Sofia Bodysuit ($28), a few pale pink ribbons, and Mossimo Ono Flats ($17). (Photo via Jon Kopaloff/Getty)

10. Missy Elliot: The rap mogul’s “The Rain (Supa Dupa Fly)” outfit is your best option in a jam — simply spring for a bag of Hefty (preferably Ultra Strong) ($11), and go to town! While it may take some creative cutting and/or wrappage, it’s at your disposal (pun intended), so why not use it? Bonus points if you add these Guess Decia High-Top Platform Sneakers ($85).

This $14 (was $27) lounge set comes with two super-soft separates that boast a roomy fit, so you can relax in total comfort.

Promising review: "I haven’t bought any Hanes products for myself before so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised with these pjs. They’re so comfy and cozy, the fabric is so soft. I ordered my normal size and they fit perfectly. The oversized boxy tee with the oversized shorts work great for hot summer nights. They’re not a heavyweight cotton but not flimsy and thin either; like a typical cotton tee. They washed well and I never put my clothes in the dryer in an effort to extend the life of my clothing. They’re a good quality for the price."

Amazon

Amazon

Promising review: "Very cool and comfortable for the upcoming warmer weather. Nice bright white. Elastic waist has waist tie to adjust for comfort. They look great on. Slightly wide leg and ankle. Will look great with summer tops. Can be fashionable for older or younger women. Did not shrink when washed in col water on delicate cycle. Air dried. Has a pretty linen texture. Not see through which can be an issue with some white materials."

Amazon

Now that so many parents continue to prefer ultra-modern and unique baby names, there's something super charming about turning to the past for inspiration.

Choices that were once considered "old lady" names are making a big comeback as more expectant moms and dads seek out classic picks with a retro feel. Not only do they have a clear sense of nostalgia, but they also offer elegance and individuality.

So, if you're considering selecting a name that's a bit old-fashioned yet full of character for your little one, here's a list of our top "old lady" options.

Scroll to see all the adorable old lady baby names we love for 2025!

1. Agnes

This classic girl's name has Greek roots and means "pure" or "holy." Its popularity can be traced back to Saint Agnes of Rome, and over the centuries, Agnes has been embraced across various cultures. That's why it has different forms in varying languages, such as Agnese in Italian and Inés in Spanish.

Aside from its historical significance, Agnes has a simple elegance to it that continues to resonate with parents around the globe.

2. Clara

With Latin origins, Clara is a feminine name that means "bright" or "famous" and can be a perfect fit for a baby girl with a future full of promise.

This pick stands out from other similar and more common names, like Claire and Clarissa. Plus, it has some ties to classic Hollywood, most notably because actress Clara Bow was a silent film star and "it girl" during the 1920s.

3. Edith

With British roots, Edith is a name that embodies resilience and grace. It means "prosperous in strife" and suggests your little one will stand strong and have a solid character when faced with adversity.

Historically, Edith is best known as the daughter of Edgar the Peaceful. She was a woman who balanced nobility, intellect, and deep faith while remaining unbothered by external judgment. That's why this name can encourage your baby girl to follow her heart and hold her own values above all else.

4. Frances

If you'd like to go the gender-neutral route, Frances is a great choice that has roots in both Latin and German. It carries meanings such as "of the Franks," "free man," and "truthful" or "sincere."

Frances originally emerged during the 17th century in Britain and is often considered the feminine version of Francis. It's since gained popularity across Europe and can even serve as a nickname for the longer Italian version, Francesca.

5. Harriet

German in origin, Harriet translates to "home ruler" and connotes leadership and authority. Its popularity in the United States has been largely influenced by Harriet Tubman, the iconic abolitionist whose courage helped lead countless enslaved people to freedom.

This name symbolizes strength, resilience, and the power to create change. Its powerful legacy is undeniable and can inspire your baby girl to make an impact on the world around her.

6. Louise

Louise might sound like a soft or elegant name, but it has strong and powerful roots that are perfect for a bold little girl.

This name is derived from the masculine Louis and means "renowned warrior." It's a fitting choice for parents who want to combine both grace and strength. Not to mention, it's tied to Irish Author Louise O'Neill, who is known for her powerful feminist novels.

7. Mabel

Next up is Mabel, an adorable name with Latin origins that means "lovable." Derived from Amabilis and Amabel, this moniker has been beloved across cultures. It also has roots in the Middle Ages and graced Dutch royalty, like Princess Mabel of Orange-Nassau.

But even if your little girl won't be part of a regal family, Mabel has a warm, welcoming spirit that will brighten up your home.

8. Winifred

Finally, Winifred is Welsh and Old English in origin, meaning "friend of peace" and "blessed reconciliation." The name is linked to a martyred Welsh princess and has a ton of vintage charm.

The best part? Winifred offers two cute nickname options: Winnie and Freddie. This makes it versatile (and fun) for different settings, whether formal or casual.

e.l.f. No Budge Retractable Eyeliner

This is by far the best drugstore eyeliner out there. Designed with a convenient retractable (no-sharpen!) tip, it's super easy to take on the go for any touch-ups. Plus, the color payoff and wearability of each shade is insanely impressive.

Amazon

If you're looking for an eyeliner that, no matter the circumstances, does not budge, this $5 is the perfect pick-me-up. You can find it in a handful of different colors to suit your makeup needs.

Promising review: "I can’t believe I’ve been trying to make felt tipped eyeliners work for so long. Usually I put on felt tipped eye liner and it barely shows up, maybe my eye lids are watery or oily. So naturally within a hour or two it doesn’t even look like I’ve put on eye liner. This is not the case with this elf eye cream retractable liner. It actually shows up right away, it also lasts for hours. Even after 8 hours there was still some on my eyes, although I did need to re apply in some spots. It also didn’t smudge. For it to last at all and not smudge is amazing for me."

Amazon

Nivea Body, Face, & Hand Moisturizing Cream

Though some people may see this $10 tinned cream as truly "old school,"many others still hold it near and dear for its ability to moisturize and heal dry skin in need of nourishment.

Amazon

The thick, non-greasy formula is chockfull of provitamin B5 that really sinks deep into the skin. The best part is it's really gentle, so you can use it on your face, body, and hands.

Promising review: "Nivea is a great product. My parents always had a tin of it around. I've continued the tradition. It is a wonderful thick cream that moisturizes well. Great value for the price, as a little goes a long way. Softens rough skin."

Amazon

Versed Sweet Relief Night Mask + Face Balm

B+C Affiliate Writer, Meredith, truly cannot get enough of this stuff from Versed. It's a thick, moisturizing face balm that really nails down the 'slugging' skincare trend without totally swamping your skin. It is fairly oily and shiny after one application, so she recommends using it only at night – and you'll wake up with a glowy complexion!

Amazon

Its $10 (was $18) formula is loaded up with bacuri and kokum butters and apricot kernel oil that are all dedicated to protecting the skin barrier. Though these ingredients may sound intimidating, the product is still wonderfully gentle overall for any skin type.

Promising review: "I have very sensitive skin and LOVE this as an overnight moisturizer. It's thick but a little goes a long way. The winter where I live is very dry. I use it every night before bed, my skin feels great in the morning! It's neutral smelling but I prefer that."

Amazon

Mielle Organics Rosemary Mint Strengthening Shampoo

This $7 (was $10) shampoo will set all your hair growth goals so right. It's made with rosemary and mint essential oils that help stimulate the scalp for better growth, along with biotin that ensures your locks don't lose moisture during the washing process. Snag the coordinating conditioner to get the full benefits (read an editor's review here)!

Promising review: "This shampoo is my favorite. It has a nice smell and gives my thinning hair a lot of volume and softness. Lathers well. Packaged well, no leaks. Hair loss has slowed down some. I will definitely continue to use."

Amazon

e.l.f. Cosmetics Glossy Lip Stain

This $6 (yes, $6!) lip stain is unlike most lip stains in the way that it boasts a fun, glossy formula. Where some leave-on lip stains may dry up and make your lips look crusty AF (hate that), this one nourishes your pout, all the while leaving a nice wash of color behind.

Amazon

This e.l.f. product stole the heart of B+C Affiliate Writer, Meredith, for its natural look, comfortable wear, and undeniable affordability. Its low price of $6 makes it so easy to try out the lip stain trend without going all-in! There are also so many shades to pick from, so you're sure to find one that suits you perfectly.

Promising review: "This was the first time buying any thing that was being called a lip stain. I didn’t want to spend a lot since I wasn’t sure if I would like them or if they worked the way people said they did. This goes on very easy and I have only used it a few times now, but it did last for a number of hours and did not come off when I ate or drink anything. I have thinner lips, but I like at this at least helps them show up more and when I don’t want to wear a lot of color, this is a soft neutral."

Amazon

Method Pure Peace Body Wash

This $8 body wash smells like heaven, truly. With notes of peony, rose water, and pink sea salt, it's perfectly feminine and clean and feels like a total treat in the shower or bath. Though fragranced, it's still gentle on the skin and provides a good amount of moisture after each use!

Amazon

This body wash from Method also boasts a unique biodegradable formula made with plant-based cleansers that contains zero parabens or phthalates to ensure healthy skin 24/7.

Promising review: "I was hesitant to buy this as I was not sure about how the scent would be. I am pleasantly surprised.
It has a simple rose smell, but it's mild and lacks that perfumey, cloying sort of smell that can happen with floral scents. Very simple, like I'm rubbing roses on myself. Not super strong, it lingers but doesn't feel like it's following you around all day either."

Amazon

Essence Lash Princess Mascara

This $5 mascara definitely doesn't feel like it's $5. It undeniably volumizes and lengthens your lashes in a few simple swipes, all without those pesky clumps you might expect from a more affordable product.

Amazon

The brush itself features an easy-to-use conic shape that lets you access the entirety of your lashes for a cohesive look, too!

Promising review: "What a little hidden gem this is. I first saw this on a you tube video and decided to try it. The bottle is adorable, but the contents will blow you away. It's probably the best mascara or one of the best that I have ever used. It was very inexpensive so even though the woman on the you tube video was saying how great it was, I wasn't expecting it to be all that great, but was still curious. I'm really glad I bought it, because it is the best mascara from a company no one probably even knows of because it is not mainstream. Buy it! I think you will love it!!"

Amazon

Wet Brush Original Detangler Hair Brush

The Wet Brush is a team favorite around here. It's gentle, lightweight, and oftentimes comes in the cutest colors and patterns to make our hair care routines more fun.

Amazon

If you're still using your old, ratty hair brush, the flexible bristles on the Wet Brush will feel like a total treat on your head. They help minimize breakage while still effectively detangling your locks. We're simply obsessed with this $7 rainbow colorway, too!

Promising review: "It glides through my hair effortlessly, detangling without pulling or causing breakage. The bristles are gentle yet effective, making it perfect for both wet and dry hair. Plus, the color is so pretty! If you struggle with knots or just want a great everyday brush, this one is a must-have!"

When Calls The Heart fans rejoice! Hallmark's longest-running TV show is returning for a 13th season, and I couldn't be happier. My entire adolescence is marked by historical romances like Reign, Pride & Prejudice, and Christy (any 90s TV show fans out there?), and alongside When Hope Calls, When Calls The Heart is the perfect romantic comfort watch anytime you need a break from the real world. It's so comforting, in fact, that we'll let the inaccurate costuming slide ;).

Here's everything you need to know about Erin Krakow's When Calls The Heart season 13, coming to Hallmark in 2026.

Is there a When Calls the Heart season 13?

Yes, When Calls The Heart season 13 is on its way! “Hearties are far more than a fan-base — they are a connected community, as loyal and supportive as the characters of Hope Valley,” Samantha DiPippo, Hallmark Media’s Programming Senior Vice President told Deadline in a statement. “It is an honor to tell stories of hope, resilience, humor and romance that continue to resonate with millions of viewers for twelve seasons and beyond.”

When can I watch When Calls the Heart season 13?

When Calls the Heart season 13 will be here before you know it. The new season will premiere on Hallmark in 2026! All episodes of When Calls the Heart are streaming on Hallmark+ now.

Who's in When Calls the Heart season 13?

Hallmark Media

We can expect to see all our favorite stars return for the When Calls the Heart season 13 cast:

  • Erin Krakow as Elizabeth Thatcher Thornton: a teacher who moves to Hope Valley from the big city.
  • Kevin McGarry as Nathan Grant: a Mountie (and Allie's guardian) who comes to Hope Valley after Elizabeth's late husband Jack dies in a training accident, and Elizabeth's brand new love interest.
  • Pascale Hutton as Rosemary LeVeaux Coulter: an actress-turned-journalist married to Lee Coulter.
  • Brooke Shields as Charlotte Thornton: Jack's mother.
  • Jaeda Lily Miller as Allie: Nathan's niece.
  • Kavan Smith as Lee Coulter: Hope Valley's sawmill owner and Rosemary's husband.

  • Martin Cummins as Henry Gowen: the Hope Valley mining company manager who gets a new start.
  • Viv Leacock as Joseph Canfield: a delivery driver who becomes the town's new pastor.
  • Jack Wagner as Bill Avery: Hope Valley's sheriff and judge.

What is When Calls the Heart about?

This Hallmark romance follows Elizabeth Thatcher (Erin Krakow), who moves to Hope Valley (named Coal Valley in the first season) in 1910 as their new teacher. The town is still mourning the loss of 47 miners after an explosion, with the women stepping in to keep things running. And season 12 saw a brand new relationship blossom between Elizabeth and Mountie Nathan Grant, with plenty of adventure and fun to keep us engaged.

How did When Calls the Heart season 12 end?

Hallmark Media

After receiving a letter that Charlotte Thornton (Brooke Shields), who's running a boarding house in Cape Fullerton, Elizabeth learns there's a new insulin lab — which could be a major help for her son Little Jack's diabetes.

After Little Jack's insulin isn't refrigerated correctly, meaning Elizabeth can't wake him up, the mother and son leave Hope Valley in the middle of the night alongside Nathan and Allie. "Where you go, I go," Nathan tells Elizabeth. I'm crying!

Is When Calls the Heart coming back in 2025?

When Calls The Heart season 12 premiered on January 5, 2025, and the finale just aired on March 23, 2025. But never fear because season 13 is coming in 2026!
