Singer Pixie Lott steps out in a thirst-quenching Halloween costume with an Aperol Spritz theme– and you can easily copy this clever costume at home for under £50
Halloween is right around the corner, and if you’re looking for a costume that’s equal parts unique, stylish and seriously fun, take a page from Pixie Lott’s book.
Last night for Annabel’s Halloween 2024: Ghosts of Versailles party, Pixie showed off her playful side by stepping out in an Aperol Spritz costume, embracing her inner Italian aperitivo in the most fabulous way possible. In fact, Instagram pages that have regrammed the look are already calling it the best look of Halloween. With plenty more A-list outfits set to be revealed this weekend and next, we’re yet to decide whether it deserves the top spot, but we do know her outfit is the perfect pick for anyone who needs a fun costume idea that can be pulled together quickly.
You can recreate her look thanks to some simple Amazon finds. Let’s break down how to bring this bubbly costume idea to life without breaking the bank…
Create Pixie’s Aperol outfit at home
Start with a fun orange dress for the Aperol base layer
SHOP IT: Funidelia Orange Fruit Costume Dress, £29.99
The first essential ingredient for an Aperol Spritz is the vivid orange hue, and you’ll need a bold orange dress to bring this part of the look to life. This Funidelia Orange Fruit Costume Dress is perfect, featuring a bright, zesty orange colour that totally channels Aperol vibes. Not only does it capture the classic colour, but it’s also fun and playful – plus, it’s roomy enough for you to party the night away in comfort.
Give your hair a matching orange makeover
SHOP IT: PLULON Orange Short Bob Wig, £6.99
Nobody wants the mess or stress of dyeing hair for Halloween. Instead, pick this orange party wig to get the Aperol effect without the commitment. The above fruit costume comes with an orange stem headpiece so simply add that on top for the full effect.
Add to the chilled effect with an ice cube addition
SHOP IT: SOIMISS Pendant Necklace, £4.89
No Aperol Spritz is complete without a little sparkle from ice cubes. This necklace’s shiny, silvery pendant gives a cute “ice cube” illusion that adds a nice touch to the whole look, plus it’s an accessory you’ll likely wear beyond Halloween. Consider it your costume-with-benefits buy.
Turn your Aperol bottle into a bag
SHOP IT: PATIKIL adjustable shoulder strap bag, £6.99
Take inspo from Pixie’s outfit and turn your bottle of Aperol into a bag. This PATIKIL adjustable shoulder strap bag in the orange colourway can be worn as a fun prop accessory. Simply shop a bottle of the drink below and pop it in before slinging it over your shoulder – it adds that quirky final touch to complete your Aperol look.
Don’t Forget the actual Aperol
SHOP IT: 1-litre bottle of Aperol, £13 (currently on sale from £17)
Finally, no Aperol Spritz costume would be complete without an actual bottle of Aperol in hand! This 1-litre bottle of Aperol doubles as a fun prop for the night. If you’re heading to a party, this is the perfect addition to keep the look authentic. Not only is it a great accessory, but it’s also your excuse to mix up a few spritzes. Win-win!
