Okay, I realize that this cape is not originally intended for Halloween, but it beautifully illustrates my goal here: You can stay warmer on Halloween by opting for a sexy costume that includes a plus size CAPE! Most regular capes will be too small, so opt for a sexy costume that comes with a cape.

I actually learned from the one and only Taylor Swift! Taylor is known for layering the Capezio “Ultra Shimmery” tights for her tour, and I think this idea is STELLAR for plus size babes who need a bit of layering underneath their fishnet or short costume!
Unfortunately, Capezio only goes up to an XL (bummer!), so I found these tights instead that go up to an 8X.

I learned this plus size Halloween tip the hard way. One year, I decided to be Cruella De Vil– wig and all. Except when I went to a Halloween event at a club, I was NOT prepared for how hot my head would be.
If you’re trying to stay warm on Halloween, then a costume with a wig (like this plus size Jessica Rabbit costume) is a great move!

A Thermos is a must for Halloween. I like to go for apple cider or hot chocolate. The thermos contents can keep your insides a bit more warm, and ALSO act as a hand warmer. I loved the design of this thermos from Target!

Of course, no list on how to stay warm for Halloween would be complete without Hand Warmers! Be sure to read the directions on these!

OK, SO! I have found that most evening gowns don’t fit my arms, and plus size evening gowns are pretty… rare. BUT, I think they’re such a smart idea for a Halloween costume, as gloves are sexy! I snagged this pair of gloves that can be CUSTOMIZED for your measurements, how cool is that??!!?
With a few clever layers and smart fabrics you don’t have to sacrifice warmth for style this Halloween. Whether you’re adding plus size tights, throwing on a cool jacket or cleverly incorporating warm accessories, there are many ways to heat up without toning down the wow factor. And being comfortable means you’ll be able to fully enjoy the night – from spooky parties to trick or treating!
So as you get ready to show off your sexy plus size costume remember a little planning goes a long way. You’ll look amazing and feel amazing too. Because let’s be real, confidence is the hottest thing you can wear! Stay warm, stay stylish and have a Halloween to remember.
