What to Dress Up for Halloween at Work
Sometimes your job is all work and no play, but Halloween ain't just another day at the office! If you want to dress up and get into the holiday spirit but you also have to work a shift that day, here's an idea: Wear your Halloween costume to the office. Or you might be working from home and there's costume contest via Zoom (you never know!), so you're gonna want some ideas. While it's probs not a good idea to repeat your go-to sexy costume (like the college costume you wore every year) in the workplace, that doesn't mean you have to be boring and skip out on dressing up, either. If you've got a work dress code you might need a costume that could also pass as professional clothing. Have zero idea where to start? Let us help you find one that even your boss will like.
I had this job cut out for me, but I was able to find 10 amazing and work-appropriate Halloween costumes for you (and even some group costumes for your coworker besties!) to wear at the office. Now, let's get down to business. Here are the outfits that will put smiles on everyone's tired faces and win you best costume at the office Halloween party—or at the very least, employee of the month.

Will's rich cousin might have been slightly snobby and very shallow, but you can't tell me she wasn't stylish!! Hilary's closet makes for the best work-appropriate costume ideas, thanks to all the blazer dresses, colorful vests, and oversized suits.
6. Thelma and Daphne from Scooby-Doo

If you already have a short bob cut or red hair, you won't even need a wig to really sell your Scooby-Doo costume. But honestly, the orange turtleneck or purple dress and green scarf combo are dead giveaways anyway.

So you and your work bestie went as Cher and Dionne in their respective yellow plaid and red, white, and black outfits last year? Iconic! Do it again, but wear one of the other millions of looks this year. The movie is jam-packed with amazing '90s fashion moments that are equally as good, just as recognizable, and less likely to be worn by everyone else.
