You just need polka-dot-everything.

2. Female Tarzan



A bra, a towel and some bananas. And forget your shoes.

Red underwear, some bangles and some part of the bush from outside your home.

5. Playboy Bunny



A one piece swimsuit, some part of the couch, and cut-out bunny ears.

A short dress and strappy shoes. Seriously. That's all.

The willingness to cut some holes in your sleeveless top and some knee-high socks.

8. Sexy Batgirl



Underwear only female wrestlers from WWE will wear and a Batman crop top.
via

9. Sexy Ballerina



All you need are ballet shoes that will fit, and the willingness to walk around pantless and unbutton most of your shirt.

10. Victoria's Secret Angel



This one is actually quite tough. VS underwear, and a smoking hot body to go along with it.

11. Angel



White jeans, white bra, and a grey-ish floor carpet you're not using for the day.

12. Batgirl



I actually can't make out what this is, but it could be Batgirl. Or is that a cat on her chest? Either way, I'm assuming this is body paint. It has to be.

13. Cowgirl



The only thing you need is that hat. You probably have everything else in your closet. This is easy!

14. Newspaper Dress Girl



Tons of newspaper glued together. The only worry: you become tomorrow's news if today's falls out.

15. Deck of cards



Just a deck of cards, a bra and some..glue?

16. Police line



This doesn't look comfortable.

Cardboard boxes that you can wear. We love this.
