For some, it took a village to put together, but there were also DIY gurus like Lauren Conrad who put her own skills to the test and seriously succeeded.

Even if you’re not a fan of October 31st, you’ll agree these costumes' beauty looks deserve a round of applause. Keep scrolling to see a few of the best that made their Internet debut this weekend, and maybe you’ll pick up a few tips for your own spooky, glam, or plain ridiculous getup.
