HOUSTON – It’s the season for spooky style - and we challenged three of Houston’s thrift-savvy influencers to create the ultimate Halloween costume using only items from Goodwill Houston at CityCentre.
Armed with carts, creativity, and a little competitive spirit, Melissa in the City, Curated by Natalie, and Joyfully Curated hit the aisles in search of the perfect look. From vintage fringe to Encanto magic to a Taylor Swift-inspired Fearless-era fit, these costumes proved you don’t have to spend big to slay Halloween.
💡 Pro tip: Along the way, our thrifters reminded us that Goodwill finds often double as wardrobe staples long after the holiday is over. Cowgirl boots for rodeo season? Check. Wednesday Addams’ dress for year-round styling? Absolutely.
