Who says only guys can be superheroes for Halloween? No offense, but female superheroes are better than male ones. You can fight me on this if you want, but I stand by what I said. Girls make the best superheroes because they can fight evil and still wear killer outfits, sometimes they even wear heels. Honestly, it’s inspiring. I’m sick of male superheroes getting all the credit when girls work just as hard as them. It’s about time we acknowledge that Supergirl is a lot cooler than Superman, am I right?
Do you ever want to feel like you can take on the world? Try dressing up as a superhero. It will change your life and make you feel like you actually have powers. Never done it before? Well, Halloween is the perfect time to DIY your own superhero costume that will make everyone actually think you can fight evil. Maybe you can, who knows? It’s Halloween, anything is possible! Try out these awesome superhero costumes and go kick some butt.
Hit Girl
The Kick Ass character wears her signature purple wig, black eye mask and plaid skirt, which makes for a pretty easy Halloween costume. Basically, as long as you are wearing purple, you are good. SourceCatwoman
This bad-ass costume is so much better than a basic cat costume. You can easily recreate this look with a pair of black leggings and leather jacket. Bonus points if you can get someone to be Batman with you. SourceBlack Widow
Similar to Catwoman, if you have black leggings and a black shirt, you are good to go with this costume. Throw on a red wig to complete the look! SourceMystique
Since Mystique doesn't actually wear a "costume," this look can easily be created with some blue face paint. You can paint half of your face like this girl did or go all out and wear a blue body suit if you are feeling adventurous. SourceBatgirl
Don't want to spend too much time working on a costume? Try this awesome (and easy!) Batgirl mask makeup look if you don't want to go all out with a full costume. SourceSpidergirl
If you like the idea of wearing makeup and want to get a little more creative, try this amazing Spiderman/Spidergirl makeup. It actually looks like a real mask! SourceClark Kent
We all know Superman is a "man" but whatever. You can easily make Superman's alter ego costume with a button up shirt and tie. SourceWonder Woman
Wonder Woman has a pretty iconic costume, can you can easily recreate it by using a blue skirt and red tank top. You can also DIY your own gold cuffs for an easy accessory that will really complete the costume. SourceMermaid Man And Barnacle Boy
Okay, so these might not really be "heroes" but they try their best, and that counts, right? Grab your BFF for this unique and easy costume idea!. SourceThe Powerpuff Girls
The famous crime-fighting gals are also a super easy DIY costume for you and your squad. Just pick which PPG you want to be and wear her color. It's so easy! I have always identified with Bubbles, just so you know. SourceMrs. Incredible
You could actually be any one of The Incredibles, since they all wear the same outfit, but this is an easy last-minute costume to anyone who wants to channel their inner Disney superhero. All you need is a red shirt, red or black tights, and a black mask and you'll look incredible! Get it? SourceSupergirl
Another classic superhero, Supergirl also has a pretty easy outfit: blue top and a red skirt. Just add an "S" on your chest and you have the perfect superhero outfit! Source');
