Finding the right Halloween costume accessories for your outfit can turn a great costume into a work of art.

While it is true that your local costume shop may have a few accessories available you will, in almost all circumstances, find a wider range online. Additionally, store bought accessories are often expensive and not meant to last very long.

If you are not ready to shop online, theatrical shops often offer a wide selection of costume accessories. These, however, tend to be a bit more pricey than the throw away ones you will find at your local Halloween store but they will last you much longer. An added bonus for these accessories is their authenticity. More often than not, these accessories will look and feel much more realistic.

Some accessories can also be found at your local good will or salvation army store. These shops often carry a variety of fake gold jewelry which can be used to make your costume look more authentic. Gold hoop clip on earrings as well as fake gold coin necklaces are just a few of things you might find at your local good will store.

If you plan on using any clothing accessories that did not come with your prepackaged costume, the good will store also may be able to help you. Many times you can find old trench coats and bandannas that can be muddied up and ripped apart for great pirate apparel. These items should not cost you very much so tearing them apart should not be much of a problem.

If you really want your costume to stand out you can always sew accessories on. Pearls and fake coins are great for a pirate look. Your local fabric store will carry everything from fake coins with holes in them to jewels and Perls which are meant to be sewn on to clothing. If you do not trust yourself with a needle and thread you can also purchase fabric tack for gluing these items on. Fabric stores will also carry a variety of leather strips to make wristband or hair ties with as well.

Makeup is always a great addition to pirates costumes. Your local or online Halloween store should be able to provide you with a great selection of make up at an affordable cost. Consider giving your self a scar or black eye to get a real rugged pirate look. Many people over look make up when putting their costume together but it can be one of the most enhancing things about your costume.

If you really want to have the best woman pirate costume out there you should do a bit of research. Pay attention to the details of other pirate costumes. Duplicating effects can be very easy if you take the time to find the right accessories and material.
