Bill Clinton enjoyed a struck of awe when he saw the balloons coming down at the Democratic Convention, and Hillary was pretty amazed too. Make everyone smile with this costume.<\/p>\n<h3>What you\u2019ll need for this costume:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>A dark suit and red tie<\/li>\n<li>A grey wig or hairspray<\/li>\n<li>Lots and lots of red and blue balloons, some with stars<\/li>\n<li>A look of wonder on your face<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>This also works great for couples to make it a Bill + Hillary duo.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>2) Donald Trump\u2019s taco bowl<\/h2>\n<p>Who doesn\u2019t love tacos? Make a big statement by going as Donald Trump\u2019s infamous Twitter post about his Cinco de Mayo lunch extravaganza. Making a big thumb\u2019s up as you pose in pictures would put the icing on the cake. Everyone else will be going as an orange pumpkin in a wig.<\/p>\n<h3>What you\u2019ll need for this costume:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>A brown body suit \/unitard<\/li>\n<li>A homemade taco bowl (get creative here)<\/li>\n<li>Red, green, yellow strips of cloth or cellophane to make the filling<\/li>\n<li>A sign that says \u201cI love Hispanics!\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/FCylEI2Io-k\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>Hilary, but in the 60\u2019s<\/h2>\n<p>You could always wear a pantsuit and a blonde wig, but Hillary in the 60\u2019s is way cooler.
