\"halloween<\/p>\n

It happens every year. October rolls around and you get lulled into the coziness of fall. That is, until you realize it\u2019s almost Halloween and you haven\u2019t thought of a costume yet! But before you drop everything to run to the nearest Party City, sit tight.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re\u00a0put together\u00a0a list of quick and easy Halloween costumes ideas inspired by our favorite glasses-wearing characters from pop-culture. We\u2019re betting you\u2019ll be able to find most of what you need in your very own closet.<\/p>\n

See\u00a0Zenni Optical\u2019s<\/a>\u00a0six suggested ideas below to complement each costume, just in case you need anything extra to complete your look. The best part is: most of the eyewear, clothes and accessories shown could totally work in your wardrobe the other 364 days of the year too!<\/p>\n

Meme of the Moment<\/h2>\n

Cardi B Boppin\u2019 at the All-Star Game<\/h3>\n

\"Cardi<\/p>\n

From the moment she burst onto the scene in 2017 singing about red-bottom shoes, pop phenom Cardi B had stolen our hearts. Pay homage to her most iconic look of 2018, when she caught serious attention for slaying in this bright-red, 1990s-inspired ensemble at the NBA All-Star Game\u00a0last\u00a0February.<\/p>\n

Rock the red trend by pairing a patent leather jacket and extreme cat-eye sunglasses with a pair of washed-out mom jeans and your biggest, blondest wig. Complete the look with a classic ballpark popcorn bag and get ready to groove at a moment\u2019s notice when your song comes on.<\/p>\n

Best Use of Current Wardrobe<\/h2>\n

Daria Morgendorrffer<\/h3>\n

\"Daria<\/p>\n

According to multiple major media outlets, our favorite 1990s MTV cartoon Daria<\/i> will return in 2019 for a reboot! We love this look because it\u2019s totally cool, and probably one of the easiest to pull off\u00a0using things you already wear.<\/p>\n

Once you grab a black mini-skirt and green jacket, focus on finding a real rugged pair of combat boots and oversized round glasses. When it comes to hair, don\u2019t over-style; let your bangs come forward as if you\u2019re trying to create a barrier between you and a sick, sad world.<\/p>\n

Cutest Kids Costume<\/h2>\n

Waldo from Where\u2019s Waldo<\/i><\/h3>\n

\"Where's<\/p>\n

Whether you\u2019re out trick-or-treating or taking the whole family down to a haunt at the local pumpkin patch, Waldo always works. The timeless appeal of a pair of round glasses and those red sailor stripes is guaranteed to melt hearts and save you a ton of time and energy this season.<\/p>\n

Coolest Couples Costume<\/h2>\n

Doctors Mantleray & Fujita from Netflix\u2019s Maniac<\/i><\/h3>\n

\"Doctors<\/p>\n

If you haven\u2019t watched it yet, this mind-bending new Netflix series follows the story of two visionary doctors (played by Justin Theroux and Sonoya Mizuno) and the story of their drug trials shown through the perspective of two of the participants (played by Emma Stone and Jonah Hill).<\/p>\n

Both Mantleray and Fujita wear thin, wire-frame glasses that remind us of styles from the 1970s and 1980s and lend an odd air of authority to both. First, you\u2019ll need matching white lab coats. For Dr. Mantleray, top the look off with a toupee wig and ultra-thin wire-frame aviators. For Dr. Fujita, complete the look with a Pulp Fiction<\/i> wig, fake cigarette, and oversized round aviators.<\/p>\n

Best Excuse to Wear Sunglasses at Night<\/h2>\n

Holly Golightly<\/h3>\n

\"Audrey<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re into classic New York glamour, you\u2019ll love borrowing Audrey Hepburn\u2019s iconic look from the 1961 movie Breakfast at Tiffany\u2019s<\/i>. Plus, you get to eat croissants and drink coffee (or wine?) out of a coffee cup all night.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll also need a long, black dress and matching evening gloves. To complete the look, add some pearls and rhinestones. Tease your hair up and away from your face, and pull it up into a French twist with a tiara. Keep the makeup simple with a well-defined cat-eye liner, then add bold tortoiseshell sunglasses:<\/p>\n

The Dude<\/h3>\n

\"Big<\/p>\n

Calling all beardos! If you want to keep the vibe extremely laid-back, you\u2019ll likely find your bliss stepping into the jelly sandals of The Dude.<\/p>\n

Stick to earth tones on the lighter side of the spectrum, and equip yourself with a pair of well-worn cotton shorts (preferably in a drab, faded plaid), a schlubby tee, a fluffy bathrobe worn open (a zip-up hoodie will also work), a pair of clear jelly Sandals straight out of 1998, and a slick rectangle frame with a dark tint.<\/p>\n
