This iconic duo will not go unnoticed. They are a classic and quite frankly, this costume seems to make a comeback every year for its simplicity. That’s what make it so doable, the fact that you might have all these things already at home in your closet. and it is a costume that you can have some creative freedom with. For example, you can wear converse instead; red ones for the girl costume and black with for the guy. You can wear black jeans instead of leather pants or trousers. The possibilities are only as creative as you want to be.

· Red or white knee socks
· 12 Red Solo Cups
· 2 ping pong balls
· 2 head bands

This is a creative costume that would make for a funny ice breaker. Take the black shirts and arrange the white iron on letters to spell “Beer” on one and “Pong” on the other. Then take 6 red solo cups for one shirt and 6 for the other. Glue them onto the shirts with a hot glue gun in the shape of an inverted triangle. Lastly, glue the pong balls one on each shirt on the edge of one of the cups. There, you’ve completed the shirts and the rest is just as easy to complete the look.
