Wonder Woman The cuteness of this costume makes me want to wear it right now. Yes, I love Wonder Woman. She's awesome and this costume isn't the standard norm. It has a fun skirt to complete the outfit instead of the traditional briefs. You'd have a blast in this option and impress your friends. So, grab your lasso and fight for justice, girls!

Rainbow Brite

Rainbow Brite Rainbow Brite was a great character when I was a little girl.This costume is really close to the original outfit she wore, which makes it even more impressive. I also love the yarn wig that accompanies it. This makes it a little more authentic, since the doll had the same type of hair. Now it's your turn to play the part of Wisp who transforms into Rainbow and bring some color into the world.

Smurfette

Smurfette Smurfette is an icon all her own. This costume, while it doesn't present you with the blue body paint that you should use to make it authentic, is really adorable and provides you with a great start. I'd suggest getting some white kitten heels to go with the outfit to make it more traditional.

Jem

Jem The only thing you need to make this totally 80s costume perfect is flashing earrings to help you transform into the musical sensation. The wig is a nice touch and inspires so many great memories for 80s kids who grew up watching this well-loved Saturday morning cartoon.
