The Coolest Halloween Costumes for Kids — All Under $50
Halloween is just a month away, and many of the most popular costumes sell out early, so it’s a good time to get a jump on your shopping. With an overwhelming amount of options to choose from — not to mention fickle kids who can’t make up their mind — finding the perfect costume can sometimes be a daunting task. To give you a little inspiration, we’ve rounded up a few of our favorites, all under $50. To complete your costume look, we also have suggestions for stylish shoes to match.
Fancy Nancy Costume
Mini fashionista Nancy is the star of this sassy costume for girls. True to the spirit of Jane O’Connor’s much-loved book character, the outfit features loads of color, ruffles and an oversize bow. Naturally, when it comes to shoes, look for the most glittery and sparkly pair you can find, like these pink Mary Janes from Rachel.
