If you have no [Halloween costume](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trickortreatable-costume) for October 31st, you should wear this hilarious shirt that says, "my other costume is in the [laundry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tallow-ash)." This top is perfect for people who either have no time to buy a costume, who don't want to make a creative one or who just hate dressing up in general.

This all black muscle tee with white writing kind of fits with a Halloween theme, as the words are written in a spooky, wavy font. Although wearing this means you're not exactly dressed as anything, you can always use it as the base of the costume. Instead of limiting yourself to dressing up as one thing, you can accessorize yourself with Halloween-inspired bracelets, rings, creepy headgear and spooky hosiery.
