chances are, you have something to do this weekend that requires a costume. If you went to last night's Little Haiti Reflektors/Arcade Fire concert, you're already going on costume number 2 and probably have at least one more to go. That means a lot of money to Casa De Los Trucos or, but hopefully not, Party City. It can all get to be a little much.

Here are a few ideas for Miami appropriate Halloween costume ideas that both make sense and can probably be pulled from your closet or put together in a jiffy. Take a shot of witches brew and then bring out a pumpkin ale and whip up one of these Only In Miami costume ideas:

ABOVE: SANTERA. Take out all your white linen clothes, get an arm party going full of 7th grade beaded jewelery, make a turban out of a white pillow case and pin a fresh flower on it. Cigar accessory optional, but pretty rad.

VERSAILLES WAITRESS. Have a tight green dress? Maybe a pair of slacks and a green polo? Make some mojitos, leave two pieces of hair on your face and pick the rest of it up and tuck a kitchen towel in your back pocket. Line your lips, throw on some colorful eyeshade, make a tray of mojitos or cafesito and get ready to call everyone "Mi amorsito" all night long.

HAITIAN VOODOO DOLL: Any boho-y caftan will do. Wrap up your hair in a scarf. Stick on any feathers or flowers you have around. Maybe add a straw hat. Makeup ideas include African tribal lines or geometric pattern or dark circles under eyes. Carry around a big stick for poking and proding.

PALM TREE: Hit your backyard with a machete and cut down some frawns. Stick em on your back somehow or in a head piece and boom - you're a palm tree!

JAI ALAI PLAYER: If you played baseball you might still have some white baseball pants around, if not, any golf pants or slacks will do. Add a polo shirt, a helmet and print out a logo to attach on your shirt.

BEACHGOER DURING MIAMI'S COLDEST WINTER: 1940 was Miami's coldest winter, people went to the beach in fur. Remember in Mean Girls, when they said Halloween is when everyone has a chance to dress slutty? Now's your chance! And you get to wear a fur!

TEQUESTA INDIAN: Miami's oldest residents where also a very stylized bunch. Paint your face like this dude, put together a makeshift bow and arrow out of branches in your backyard (go ahead! get crafty!) and accessorize with all your Native American inspires wears. Guys, just go shirtless. It's still hot out.

MARJORY STONEMAN DOUGLAS: She helped preserve the Everglades, she wore great hats, she'd make a great history-buff costume. Get out your grandma's gardening hat, put on a button down blouse, a pair of high waist trousers or a tea-length straight skirt, maybe in a floral print and a strand of pearls.
