Woah, Halloween weekend was definitely one for the BOO-ks. With a whole weekend to celebrate, many of you had the chance to show off some of the best DIY costumes we’ve ever seen! Trust us when we say you did NOT disappoint. We enjoyed looking through the #BCHalloween hashtag all weekend long and seeing it full of your creative costumes. It was a close race down to the final decision, but we want to say a big THANK YOU to all who entered, you rock! So on that note, let’s get to the winners of the 2016 B+C Halloween Costume Contest. Wooo!

No surprise that Stranger Things was one of the biggest costume trends this year, and we seriously gushed over this version of one of the most endearing characters from the show.
