​Jellyfish
All you need for this simple costume is an umbrella and some yarn. That’s it. Literally all you need to become a jellyfish you probably already own. Go have fun.

Adult Baby
This costume is honestly the best idea ever. All you need is an onesie and a sippy cup. Two simple objects, and you can have the best night of your life. It’s probably freezing outside, so you will be warm, and you get to act like a child all day. Everybody wins with this one.

White Trash
This one may be very difficult to pull off. All you do is write “white trash” on a garbage bag. You may be thinking that this is easy to do, and so far, you are right. The hard part comes in when you have to figure out where to cut the head hole, because let’s face it: if your last minute costume is created with a garbage bag and a Sharpie, you may need some help with this.

Your Tinder Profile in Real Life
This one is a real hit with our generation. You need is two pieces of construction paper: one red, one green. That is seriously it. Good job. Who knows, this costume may bring more than just compliments.

Matthew Murdock from Netflix’s Daredevil
First off, if you haven’t seen this show yet, go watch it. This one is really simple: all you need is a black shirt to tie around your face. Just tie the shirt around your head and wear all black clothing, and suddenly you are one of the most daring (pun intended) superheroes ever created.

Nudist on Strike
I think this picture explains it all. Go nuts.

Freshman
Just grab some TU apparel, a few textbooks, and a backpack. Then you are set to walk around all day, looking confused and asking for directions to the library.

Dad
For those with an inner parental side, all you need for this costume is a trip to Goodwill to buy some old jeans and a polo. Throw in some grilling utensils, and all of a sudden, you can call yourself a dad.
