Top Five Costume Ideas for Moms and their Babies

Little Bo Pee Costume




Toddler Sheep Costume



















I love seeing parents out with their kids on Halloween, especially when they've done some co-ordination with their costumes! Its a tonne of fun and is a great way to bond. The cutest pairing of course is a mom-and-baby combo, but its also a difficult one to think up ideas for. Here's some of my suggestions: if you have your own, be sure to post the in the comments! My first suggestion is a shepherdess and baby lamb costume combo, like the two costumes I have featured above. It's super cute! Just make sure not to lose your sheep like Little Bo Peep.

Unique Infant Baby Caterpillar Costume
Delicious Monarch Butterfly Costume






















Here's another cute idea for mothers who want their babies to be in touch with nature: a mother butterfly and baby caterpillar duo costume. I particularly like the two above, but if you are looking for different styles I've made a whole post featuring lots of other butterfly costumes that you might like to check out as well. Alternatively, why not both go as butterflies? Here's a really adorable baby butterfly costume you might like.

Group Costume Ideas for Women: Garden Insects

Dreamgirl Women's Reversible Bumble Bee/Lady Bug Costume
Dreamgirl Monarch
Butterfly Costume
Creepy crawlies might not be the first thing that come to your mind when you are thinking up an idea for your next group costume party, but for every icky slug and snail there is a fluffy bumble bee or a colorful ladybug, so don't be scared to give it a try! I thought I'd make this post showing you a few bug-based costumes for women that I loved to bits and think would be a lot of fun to use in a group themed costume effort. 

FunWorld Lovely
Ladybug Costume
I suggest a combination of bumble bees, ladybugs and butterflies. On the right is one of my favorite butterfly costumes, a colorful orange number based on the Monarch butterfly. The wings light up too, which is pretty cute. Butterfly costumes also make a fun group theme all by themselves since there are so many of different styles of costumes available. I've made a post on my top five favorite butterfly costumes, so be sure to check it out. 

As for the lady birds and the bees, check out the costume at the top of this page for an easy fix - a reversible costume that covers both! It works especially well for group outings since the style of the bees will naturally match with that of the ladybugs. For extra fun, pair them up with some matching stripey stockings: here's some for bees, and here's some for lady bugs. There's other styles of costume available too - check out the ones on the left and below. 

FunWorld Women's Honey Bee Costume
So there you have it, some fun insect themed costumes to get you started. I hope you liked the idea and found a costume you like! If you did, be sure to check out the rest of my blog, where you'll find all the cutest and sexiest costume ideas for women on the net! Oh, and just for fun, here's some lady-bug themed shoes, and bee themed ones. Because who says you can't wear your costume accessories after Halloween is over?

Top Five Butterfly Costumes for Women

Dreamgirl Monarch Fairy Butterfly Costume
Butterflies are one of the most beautiful creatures of the animal kingdom, and for girls who like to show up their colorful nature, they are the perfect costume theme. Butterflies also make a fun group theme too! If you are shopping from the UK or EU, go here for lots of great butterfly costumes.

Adult Butterfly Costume
To get you started, I've picked out my favorite butterfly costumes for you to check out right here, starting with the one above. Its designed to look just like the Monarch butterfly, a common butterfly you've probably seen in your garden. It's beautiful, recognizable, and it comes with everything you need: the silky satin dress, cute antennae headpiece and a pair of beautiful butterfly wings that light up. Why not pair it up with some fun orange and black stripey stockings

Next up, if you want a more gothic look, check out the cute costume on the right. It' combines some lovely shades of black, white and yellow, and goes very well with a goth girl's existing accessories - especially if you have some black fishnet tights to go with it. If not, pick some up here! This costume includes the pretty black mini-dress as well as the wings and bug antennae headband.

Womens Sexy Blue Butterfly Insect Halloween Costume
Fluttery Butterfly Adult
Womens Costume
I picked the one above for its unique and interesting butterfly mask. This is a blue version of the Monarch butterfly look, and its gorgeous! Each set comes with the dress, matching antennae headband, the blue wings, and of course, the mask. If blue is your color, be sure to check out this fun costume based on the Ulysses swallowtail

If you are more of a girly-girl, then don't worry, there's a butterfly costume for you too. On the left is a look that's great for girls who look pretty in pink, complete with a fluttery dress, delicate wings and a pair of pink antennae.

Last but not least is the drop-dead gorgeous costume on the right. Those I always like to provide a wide range of colors of costumes in these posts, I just had to include this one because of how amazing and luxurious it is. This sparkly number is all velvet, lace and rhinestones, and comes with the dress, a petticoat to give it some lift, the matching wings and a dainty little headpiece. 

I hope you enjoyed this post and found some cute ideas for your next costume! If you want to see more, be sure to check out the rest of my blog for lots of sweet costume ideas for women for all occasions.
