2. Social media
If you are both fans of social media, why not incorporate both of your favorite social networks into your costumes? For Twitter, cut out 140 letters or less (hash tag symbol included) and pin them to a white T-shirt. For Facebook, take a cardboard poster and add a Facebook profile. Include statuses, likes and even photos of some of your Facebook friends.
