DIY this look

The office pun costume is a last-minute Halloween costume idea you can build entirely from your closet and a printer.
  1. Wear the grid-print button-down over plain trousers or a skirt, full office-casual energy.
  2. Pin on the 'Cell A1' name tag at chest height.
  3. Keep the oversized red pen prop in hand, ready to 'mark up' anyone you meet.
  4. Deliver every joke completely deadpan - that's the whole costume.
