Let’s get real: There are really only two types of people out there. Those who plan their Halloween costumes for months in advance, and those who whip up their ensembles a few days before the festivities. (Those who fall into the latter group should read on.)

We’re willing to bet that those spur-of-the-moment types aren’t likely to splurge on a look you can only wear once. So why not combine wearable (and affordable) basics with a few well-placed embellishments? Try this devil’s costume; a natty red blazer and a pair of sleek pants, complete with horns, tail, and pitchfork. You will look cool as hell—with cash left over for some candy.
