5 Fierce animal-inspired Halloween costumes

Animal inspiration is at its highest around Halloween as sexy kittens, hot bunnies and sweet mice come out to play. If you plan to bring out your delicate claws and pretty tail this year, make sure you look as glamorous as ever with our five fierce animal costume picks and tips.

Semi-modest mouse

As Amanda Seyfried so obviously puts it in Mean Girls, “I’m a mouse, duh.” Being a mouse for Halloween is the median between too sexy and too modest. Find out how to look flirty without giving away all of your goods with our costume picks. This nylon tricot figure skater dress in charcoal from American Apparel, $48, is girly and fun, making it the perfect mouse dress. While you’re at American Apparel, pick up some white opaque over-the-knee socks, $13, to give it a mousy-meets-sexy look. Pretty up your feet with these budget-friendly patent Mary Jane platform pumps, $30, from Charlotte Russe. Finish off your Halloween costume with this mouse sound costume kit from Party City, $10, which comes with all the essentials including mouse ears, a mouse tail, a mouse nose and a bow tie.


Frisky feline

Whether you’re channeling a kitty cat or a jungle cat, our feline costume picks are sure to make your purr. Take charge in this Take Meow-t Tonight one shoulder sequin dress, $63, from Lulus.com. Pair this sparkly dress with the Grettta platforms, $70, from Steve Madden for a purrfect look. Add some frisky cat ears, $6, a cute little tail, $7, Sally Hansen’s Salon Effect nail strips, $9, and you’ve conquered queen of the jungle. Meow!


Vibrant bunny

If you’re getting your hop on this Halloween and dressing up as a bunny sans Playboy, we’ve got you covered on how to pull off the look in a tasteful and fresh way. This fuchsia Naven sweetheart dress, $261, from Revolve Clothing is bright, fun and edgy. Add some subtle glitter to your feet with these iridescent heels, $59, from Zappos and all you need to do is accessorize!
