Blast to the Past With These '90s Halloween Costumes

In order to pull off best friends Dionne and Cher from "Clueless," you'll need plaid miniskirts, matching blazers, knee-high socks, and lots of high-end shopping bags. As if!

Gerald is the best best friend there is! To copy this "Hey Arnold!" character, you'll just need a red shirt with the number 33 on it. Pair that with blue jeans and red sneakers, and your work here is done.

To be the sexy basketball-playing bunny Lola from "Space Jam," you'll need bunny ears and a tail, white gloves, a basketball uniform, and a basketball. And be sure to share this reminder with all guys you come across: "Don't ever call me 'doll.'"

If you're going to be the mysterious dame of "Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego?," then you'll need to hide under a red trench and floppy hat, don all black underneath, and hold a magnifying glass.

"Welcome to Good Burger, home of the Good Burger! Can I take your order?" You can easily re-create Ed and Dexter's "Good Burger" outfits by wearing a blue-and-white striped shirt and a white hat. Carrying around a bag of burgers or a spatula wouldn't hurt, either!

To pull off the dry teen besties of the animated series "Daria," you'll first need to perfect your most bored expression and disdain for human beings. For Daria, you'll need a green jacket, a pleated skirt, combat boots, and her signature glasses. For Jane, you'll need a red shirt, shorts, tights, combat boots, and a few clip-on earrings.

To be "Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century," you need a pink bodysuit and blue vest and miniskirt — topped off with pigtails!

For the knowledgeable and adventurous teacher from "The Magic School Bus," you need a curly red wig, a blue dress with purple collar (or a collared shirt underneath the dress), and a stuffed iguana to play Liz the iguana. For an extra touch, attach stars and planets to your dress!

Miss her songs much? Copy the iconic Janet Jackson by wearing a black long-sleeved shirt, mom jeans, and black accessories. The hat is a must! Wear a microphone for emphasis.

Dressing as the British pop group Spice Girls is a tried-and-true costume idea for groups of five, and the style of clothing is pretty much spelled out in the nicknames of the members: Scary (animal prints), Sporty (tear-away pants), Baby (pink dress), Ginger (Union Jack dress), and Posh (negligee).

For bossy big sis Angelica Pickles from the Nickelodeon cartoon "Rugrats," you'll need a purple dress, an orange long-sleeved top, blue pants with green polka dots, and your hair in pigtails. And don't forget her doll, Cynthia!

"Gotta catch them all!" To take on Misty from the Japanese video-game-turned-franchise Pokémon, throw on some tennis shoes, cuffed shorts, a yellow tank, and red suspenders.

For "Seinfeld"'s Elaine Benes, you need a beige blazer, a long floral dress or skirt, and dark curly hair styled half-up, half-down. As an added bonus, you should perfect her dance moves.

To pull off Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins, Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes, and Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas of the R&B group TLC, you'll need bright, baggy clothes; caps turned backward; suspenders; and either a patch or a black mark under the eye of whoever's Left Eye. Going around singing "Waterfalls" is optional but advised.

For Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup of "The Powerpuff Girls," you'll need dresses in blue, pink, and green; white knee-high socks; black shoes; a pink bow for Blossom; and cartoon bug eyes.

Take your sexy nurse costume to the next level with this '90s reference! To dress as the nurse on Blink-182's "Enema of the State" ($18) album cover (porn star Janine Lindemulder), you're going to need fake butterfly tattoos, a nurse outfit, a red bra, and a rubber glove.

If you're going to be angsty teen Angela Chase from "My So-Called Life," then you'll need lots of layers in pastels, florals, plaid, and crochet plus oversize striped sweaters. Bonus points if you memorize some of her best quotes.

To be a contestant on Nickelodeon's game show "Legends of the Hidden Temple," you're going to need a helmet; knee pads and elbow pads; khaki shorts; and either a red, green, purple, orange, gray, or blue shirt with the coordinating stenciled animal symbols on them. This would also make a great group costume!

If you're going to be "the fighter" Ashley Spinelli from the TV show "Recess," then you'll need some tomboy attire and a fierce attitude. The outfit includes an orange beanie, pigtails, a red dress, a dark jacket, and red-and-orange striped tights or leggings.

Channel Britney Spears in her 1998 music video for " . . . Baby One More Time" with a white button-down shirt tied at the waist, a gray sweater, and two braids with pink pom poms.

Have some fun playing the magical girls of the Japanese anime "Sailor Moon" by wearing schoolgirl dresses, white gloves, and ridiculously long wigs.

To pull off the girl chipmunk, Gadget, from "Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers," you'll need a light-purple top and bottoms, goggles, a blond wig, and some face paint.

For spunky Blossom, you've gotta pick up a floppy fabric hat, a fake flower to attach to it, some knee-length khaki shorts, and a chunky sweater.

If you'd like to put your angry resting face to good use, then go as Christina Ricci's Wednesday Addams from the 1991 film "The Addams Family." You'll need two long black braids, a dark dress with a white collar, and a general disdain for fun.

Go, go Power Rangers! The pink Power Ranger was always the best, so if you're dressing as Amy Jo Johnson's crime-fighting hero, then you'll need pink spandex with the white diamond patterns, white gloves, a helmet (or ski goggles), a belt, and some powerful poses.

If you want to be as spoiled and fashionable as Hilary Banks from "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air," you'll need to hone in on your best '90s outfits. Copy Hilary's killer style by wearing a red blazer, a black turtleneck, a checkered miniskirt, and plenty of flashy jewelry.
