Everyone loves a classic. Whether you buy a t-shirt or complete the look with tights and a cape, dressing up as a superhero is a sure way to go.

For all those old-fashioned Disney fans, Mary Poppins might be the costume for you. Complete your outfit with a floor-length coat jacket, stylish bowtie, feminine gloves, and a black boater hat. Add an umbrella for a magical touch.
5) Facebook
