How To Make Cinderella Running Costume

cinderella running costume how to make easy

Hello from Colorado – I’ll share details soon, but first let’s talk running costumes! I ran the Disneyland 10K in a Cinderella Running Costume that I threw together very easily! No Martha Stewart-y crafting abilities needed. Since a lot of Run Disney races are coming up I thought I’d share how I made this Cinderella Running Costume…

Cinderella Running Costume

1. Bun – I used a hot bun.

2. Wide light blue head band – I used a Sweaty Band

3. Earrings – I used cheap pearl ones Smile

4. Light blue tank – I love the random one I picked up because the back was cool and bottom was flowy and reminded me of a dress kinda sorta. This one is similar.

5. White arm sleeves. I meant to make these Monican style with socks for a cheaper option, but ran out of time.

6. Sparkle Skirt in light blue

7. Optional: white trim for arms

8. Optional: black ribbon for choker

Not exactly twins, but it works.

I wore the Cinderella costume for the 10k and not the Disney Half Marathon because I wasn’t sure if my hair would stay. Luckily, it stayed great for 6.2 miles! I used this Hot Bun and tons of bobby pins. I have A LOT Of hair so this was a Christmas miracle.

After the race I even took a walk and it was still up! Well, except for that shark fin trying to break free…

Dressing up for Run Disney races is half the fun! I always try to think up a costume that is easy to make and run in too.

    That’s a really cute idea. I haven’t ran dressed in costumes..ever. I think I’m going to try this one.

    Btw, I really like your upper arm muscles.

    Thanks for sharing. I love that it was a “no Martha required” costume. Costumes is a great part of runDisney.

    Halloween is so much pressure! I never know what to be and putting together a costume always seems so hard. But then you get tortured if you don’t dress up. I still have no idea what will happen with my possible costume this year.

    I think people’s costumes are so cute, but I’ve never run in costume before.

    I didn’t dress up for Halloween last year, and I’m not sure if I will this year or not. I may just be at home handing out candy to the neighborhood kiddos.

    I think this has been one of my favorite costumes you’ve posted just because it looks so easy and still comfortable to run in. Maybe next year I’ll sign up for a Disney race. They aren’t in my budget right now. Those races are soo costly!

    Super cute running costume. I will be in Puerto Rico on my honeymoon this year for Halloween, so I am not dressing up. I’m totally lazy when it comes to costumes…like I wear scrubs and call myself a nurse. 🙂

    I’ve had such a tough time deciding on a costume this year! Now that we’ve made plans to go to our neighborhood’s Halloween block party, I think I’ve landed on Minnie Mouse. Maybe my black lab can be Goofy?
