Halloween is the perfect time of the year to be as extra as you want to be. Whether you're a fan of glitter, face paint, sequins, bold colors, you name it, Halloween is when you serve looks. Period. However, more often than not, those looks aren't the most comfortable. Yes, they are stunners that will gather all the Instagram likes, but your feet could potentially hate you at the end of the night if you don't choose the right footwear. That's why this year, we highly suggest aiming for Halloween costumes with sneakers.
Instead of planning your costume from the makeup down to the shoes, start from the bottom up. This way, you'll guarantee comfort without sacrificing your winning costume. The best of both worlds, if you ask us. If you want to see what we're talking about, scroll down to get inspired by nine Halloween costumes with sneakers that are the perfect mix between casual and cool.
