About the Junie B. Jones Costume for Adults and Teachers

Junie B. Jones is the “almost six-year-old” star of Barbara Park’s wildly popular children’s book series, which includes over two dozen books and has sold 65 million copies since 1992.

Illustrated by Denise Brunkus, the Junie B. Jones books share the youngster’s life in kindergarten and first grade, from riding on a smelly school bus to losing her front tooth and celebrating holidays. She’s known for being both funny and sassy.

Junie B. Jones typically wears a colorful, mismatched outfit, often featuring a purple skirt, a pink sweater, and a pink bow. Her colorful style reflects her energetic personality. Junie B. Jones has brown hair. It is often in a short, tousled style

This Junie B. Jones Halloween costume is inspired by the most notorious Junie B. Jones outfit from the first book. Alternatively, I’ll show you some fun options from other popular Junie B. Jones outfits.

DIY Junie B. Jones Costume Ideas for Halloween

Pink Cardigan

One of the most essential pieces of this costume is a pink button down cardigan. This one matches the shade of Junie’s well.


Pink Bow

Junie famously wears a large pink bow in her hair. I like this one because it comes on a headband, so it should sit well on your head.


Short Purple Skirt

Junie B. Jones typically wears a short purple skirt. Her outfit is often paired with other colorful and playful clothing,

I like the color of this one and the fact that it is elastic for an easier fit, as well as flared like Junie’s.


White Knee Socks

I recommend these white knee socks for costumes because they are compression socks for travel, so they can serve a double duty for you. Don’t forget to wear one up and one down, just like Junie!


Black Mary Jane Shoes

You can wear black shoes from your own closet or purchase black Mary Jane shoes like these to complete your look. They work for a lot of different book character costumes for adults.


Messy Brown Wig

This short and messy brown wig fits the bill if you want the exact look of Junie’s hair.


Purple Glasses

Later in the book series, Junie wears purple frame glasses, so you can also wear these if you choose.


Gold Stars

Another one of Junie’s famous pink cardigans has gold star buttons, so you may also wish to stick these gold star stickers over the buttons on your cardigan.

They are one inch in size, so they are large enough to fit and make a statement. Pass the extras out to kids!


Yellow Polka Dot Bow

Junie is sometimes also known for wearing a yellow polka dot bow, if you prefer this over a pink bow.


Multicolored Striped Tights

Lastly, Junie B. Jones is also known for wearing purple striped tights similar to these, if you prefer them to the white knee socks she wore in the first book.
