Mermaid Halloween Costume & Colorful Mermaid Wigs


It's been many years since I purchased a Halloween costume but this year I decided to be a little festive and pull together a mermaid costume with Disney's Little Mermaid as an inspiration.

Red Wig  /  Sea Shell Statement Necklace  /  Mermaid Long Tail Skirt  /  Sparkling Sequins Tube Top



Before I decided to go full swing Ariel with the red wig, I found so many cute and colorful wigs that were "mermaid hair" material. It just so happens the red wig matched best with the costume I pieced together.





Wavy Red
Similar but not the same red wig I purchased.






It was a toss up between the red wig or the last white/blue/green wig for my mermaid costume but we decided to go with the Little Mermaid theme since K found a King Neptune costume.



I wish I thought to buy Lola a mermaid-themed dog costume but I purchased her glow in the dark butterfly costume a few weeks prior and it fits her perfectly.

Are you dressing up this year?

  5. I've always wanted to be a mermaid for Halloween... not just because I'm obviously OBSESSED with mermaids but because how fun are those wigs?! Any excuse to wear a wig in my opinion :) <3, Pamela Sequins & Sea Breezes
