Instructions
Dress or Top and Skirt
You can either find a white crochet mini dress in a vintage or thrift store, or make one yourself using a white crocheted blanket, fabric, or t-shirt. Cut it to your desired length, then sew, glue, or tape the sides together to make a tube dress. Alternatively, you can wear a white crop top with a matching white or pink mini skirt.
Pink Platforms
Your shoes should be high, chunky, and eye-catching, just like Baby Spice’s. You can find pink platform sneakers or sandals online, or repaint or decorate your existing shoes with pink spray paint, fabric markers, or ribbons.
Cropped Cardigan or Sweater
To complete the sweet and cozy look, wear a cropped pink cardigan or sweater over your white dress or top. You can find one in a thrift store or cut off the bottom part of a larger pink sweater.
Hair And Accessories
Of course, a Baby Spice costume wouldn’t be complete without the iconic pigtails and pink hair accessories. Part your hair down the middle, then tie two high ponytails with pink hair elastics. You can also add pink glitter or temporary hair color for extra sparkle.
For the finishing touches, use pink hair accessories such as barrettes, ribbons, or glitter. You can also wear a pink or silver choker necklace and hoop earrings to channel the 90s vibe.
Knee-High Socks
Finally, complete your outfit with white knee-high socks that match your white dress or top. They will make your legs look longer and cuter, just like Baby Spice’s. You can wear them with pink stripes or bows if you like.
In Conclusion
There you have it – your very own DIY Baby Spice costume that is fun, nostalgic, and easy to make. Spice up your next event with this look, and feel free to sing and dance along to Wannabe, Spice Up Your Life, or any other Spice Girls hit. After all, as Baby Spice herself would say, “If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends!”
