You must be fairy excited, because Halloween is right around the corner. If you’re planning a pixie costume this year, it’s time to break out your wings and get a glitter-inspired makeup look ready to go. It’s actually pretty easy putting together a fairy costume when you have these two things, but you definitely don’t want to wing it when it comes to your Instagram caption.

The right fairy costume Instagram caption can really add that extra bit of pixie dust to whatever snap you’re posting. You just need to match your fairy quotes to your fairy characters. For instance, Disney has a whole range of iconic fairy characters to choose from. There’s the sparkling and sassy Tinker Bell on one end and the wicked and dark Maleficent on the other. If you’re planning a group fairy costume with your roomies, you could go as Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather from Sleeping Beauty. You just need to wear matching outfits in either red, green, or blue. While rocking this adorable look, you definitely need to snap a cute group pic showing off your wings and wands with pride, and the right fairy Instagram caption will pull it all together.

Try getting an in-flight picture of you in the air as well. To achieve this, simply use a self-timer on your camera or capture a video and screenshot the best moment. After sorting through your fave snaps, just use any of these 60 fairy costume captions to bring your Insta post to new heights. After all, if Peter Pan has taught you anything, it's that all it takes is a little faith, trust, pixie dust — and the right IG caption — to fly.
