12 Super Easy Halloween Headbands & Accessories

by Audrey Williams

Halloween is my holiday. I say that without an ounce of exaggeration. I live for the ghouls, ghosts, and goblins — but mostly for the costumes. Not everyone feels the same, though. For people who don't know what to wear when you hate wearing costumes (these people exist exist), there are always easy Halloween headbands and accessories. It makes me sad to think that there are people who don’t go all out for Halloween, but I get it. Not everyone wants to spend months planning elaborate coordinating Halloween costumes. It takes time, effort, and sometimes, even a lot of money.

Easy Halloween headbands, on the other hand, do not. They’re great to slip on for when you want to participate in the fanfare of Halloween without actually committing. And the great thing is, you can be anything you want with just a headband or accessory. With this spiked crown you can be a dark goth princess, or with this headband you can channel your inner magical unicorn. You can even throw this feathered cape over an all black outfit for a Maleficent-esque costume that takes less than five minutes to put together. I know I can’t force you to love Halloween and its costumes the way I do, but if you’re someone who hates all-out costumes, try these Halloween headband ideas and get in on some of the spooky fun.
