As the days grow colder and trees transform into a patchwork quilt of fall colors, everyone starts to look forward to Halloween. If you're anything like me, you've probably been meticulously planning your costume since April — which means that it's finally ~seasonably appropriate~ to start hitting up party stores and breaking out jack o' lantern-themed everything. But just in case you need that extra push to get you into the Halloween spirit (it's a thing, OK?) simply look to Hollywood for some seriously badass costume inspo: Truly, the best celebrity Halloween costumes are a force to be reckoned with.

Turns out, not being held back by crippling student loan debt (and therefore most likely having an infinite amount of money at your disposal) can really translate into some of the most creative Halloween costumes the world has ever seen. All (half) kidding aside, stars really go all out in the costume department this time of year. Imagine all of the Best Costume winners at bars congregating in one place, and there you have Hollywood on Halloween night.

So grab the candy corn, pop Halloween in the DVD player (why isn't this movie streaming on Netflix yet???), and sit, back, relax, and get ready to be inspired by the most jealousy-inducing celeb Halloween costumes.
