Take a trip to a local costume or party store or visit online shops to purchase one of these looks. If you're creative, you can recreate the characters below with our simple suggestions.

Want to look as though you're ready for a high seas adventure? Pair solid-colored fitted pants with a vertically-striped shirt. Black, white and red are traditional pirate colors, but as this store-bought costume shows, other colors work just as well. Just don't skip the must-have pirate accessories: A black eye patch, a gold hoop earring, a pirate's hat or head scarf and a large plastic sword. Your pirate's booty: All the Halloween candy you can score!
