Costume hippie adornment is one of the funnest things to do for Halloween. The 60s were a swinging time, and the 70s were great too. Now you can relive that magic and bring back some of that magic for yourself on Halloween night. It's easy to make your own hippie costume at home, or you can buy a pre-made one. Luckily, there are a lot of hippie costumes ready to go off the store shelves because it's such a popular item. In order to make your own hippie costume at home, it's quite easy. Get a lot of patchwork items together. You can simply attach squares of cloth together. Also, try to look for psychedelic color combinations. The more you can bring back the magic of the hippie generation, the better. Don't be afraid to go over the top. You can tie-dye any piece of clothing you have. Don't be afraid to get out the tie-dye. Experiment a little bit. There are a lot of little items you can add on to any outfit, costume, or wardrobe item. Don't be afraid to add beads, feathers, chains, bracelets, or headbands to make yourself look more like a hippie. Macrameting, crocheting, or knitting can add a hippie touch to your costume. Don't be afraid to go the extra mile to make it look real. The more real it looks, the more fun it will be at the costume party. Also, leave your bra at home. You don't want to be wearing a bra when you're out in a hippie costume. It just wouldn't look right. Add fringes to any dress item too. Fringes really add a touch to the hippie look. Go barefoot if possible because the hippie look is best when you're barefoot. It's very authentic to go out without any shoes. If you're out, and you're wearing shoes, you won't look like a real hippie. Hang a peace symbol around your neck and wear flowers in your hair too. The look wouldn't be complete without these two extras. Get a well-crafted hippie look instead of just picking out something from the store. It will look more authentic, and the hippies were all about getting to the real thing.
