Seeing as Halloween is fast approaching, you're probably in search of the perfect costume, especially if you're in need of a group costume. Forget the Spice Girls and Destiny's Child (aka the girl groups I wanted to dress up like back in the day), because going to a party dressed as Taylor Swift's squad for Halloween is the smart (and right) choice. I know, I know. There are a ton of people in her so-called squad, but I'm going to do my best to narrow it down for you.
First of all, ignore all those celebs who attended Swift's 1989 tour, because that makes her squad list a million pages long. Who has time to plan that type of elaborate costume, not to mention who really has that many friends besides Taylor Swift? (But if you do, good for you.) Rather, let's focus on a few of her main squad members, including Gigi Hadid, Lorde, Selena Gomez, and Zendaya, because their fashion always stands out to me. Of course, this squad group costume also includes Swift, but you and your friends will have to battle it out for who gets to play that coveted role.
With that said, here is an easy how-to on how to become T. Swift's squad for Halloween.
If You're A Taylor
There are a ton of Taylor outfits to choose from, but the one above from her 1989 tour is perfect for Halloween. First, these $9 sunglasses from Charming Charlie are a must.
As for the top, this mesh crop top from Charlotte Russe for $7.99 is great.
Really, you can pair the crop top with any skirt, but this one from Forever 21 comes in a variety of colors and only costs $5.90.
Finally, this Ariel bomber jacket from Hot Topic for $44.50 brings the whole look together. I know it's not the glittery one Swift's wearing, but I think she'd approve.
Tip: If you really want to look like T. Swift, here is a hair and makeup tutorial to help you channel her 1989 look.
If You're A Gigi
Hadid always look sleek and sophisticated. Plus, she always wears the best dresses and jumpsuits, so here are a few options for you. She can wear lace like nobody's business, so this $20 white lace dress from Charlotte Russe is a great choice.
Or, if you prefer Hadid's bold look from above, might I recommend this $29.90 studded jumpsuit from Forever 21. It just screams Hadid to me.

If You're A Lorde
Lorde know how to rock a suit and so can you. This $14.99 white blazer from H&M works.
Also, this red crop top from Forever 21 only costs $15.99 and will definitely complete the outfit.
Pair the top and blazer with any dress pants you already own, specifically white ones, or even jeans, and you're all set.

If You're A Selena
Gomez is one classy singer/actress, which she showcases through her fashion — never has a jumpsuit or blazer ever looked so great on someone. So, try this Crêpe Jacket from H&M for $34.99, which will definitely do the trick.
As for the jumpsuit, I can totally see Gomez walking the red carpet in this halter one ($32.99) from Charlotte Russe.
Tip: Here's a Selena Gomez makeup tutorial that will help you achieve her makeup look, not to mention the perfect smoky eye.
If You're A Zendaya
Zendaya looks fab in bold colors and edgy looks, so try this $19.99 patterned jumpsuit or $24.99 floral romper, both from H&M.

Like I said, these are just a few options, so feel free to channel any Taylor Swift squad member. It's all about being you and having a great time with your friends on Halloween.
