1. Runaway BrideDon’t worry, you won’t need a wedding dress! Just throw on a white dress and use a hairband and something that resembles a veil (napkin, light cloth, etc.). Top it off with some sneakers to recreate the classic Julia Roberts look from the movie.

2. TouristPut on your cheesiest shirt and pair it with classic sunglasses. Finish the outfit with shorts, sneakers, high socks, and if you’re really into it, a visor/hat and a fanny pack.

3. EggThis is probably the simplest and most original one yet. Wear all white and draw/paint a yellow oval on your top. It’ll definitely get a lot of comments!

4. GreaserDidn’t you love Sandy in “Grease?” Take her look by wearing all black and putting on your tightest jeans/leggings. Finish the look with a leather jacket and a great belt. If you have time, curl your hair and rock a bright red shade of lipstick.
