Bert and Ernie

These bosom buddies are two of the most beloved characters on "Sesame Street." The nostalgia factor alone will turn heads at any costume party.<br> <br> <b>How to do it right:</b> This costume will take a little home-made effort and care. Pay attention to details and utilize accessories. Ernie never goes anywhere without his rubber ducky and Bert always had a fondness for his paperclip collection. And don't wimp out on the body makeup.
