Every now and then a commercial will feature a character that stands out and everyone just loves that character. Flo is the adorable, upbeat host of many of Progressive Insurance's commercials.
She's a fun costume pick for any Halloween event and you can look just like her with a few simple accessories. The first thing you'll want to work on is capturing Flo's hairstyle.
It's often described as perky and it fits her personality. Style your hair so your bangs part to the side and give your hair some extra volume in the back. For best results, try using a volume styling hair insert.
Once you're done with that, add a simple navy headband and you'll be well on your way to looking just like Flo. If you don't want to style your hair like Flo's or if you don't have time to, you can opt for a wig that's already styled and just add a headband to it.
Once you've finished with styling your hair, you'll need the clothing part of the costume. For this, you'll want to wear a white polo and white pants. Next, grab a white apron.
There are actually official aprons with Progressive's logo available or you can use a heat transfer to put the logo on your apron if you want to do it yourself. For shoes, opt for blue sneakers. If you want to match Flo exactly, wear Navy Chuck Taylor All Star sneakers.
After you have Flo's outfit and hair done, you'll want to get a few accessories to complete the look. The first accessory to look for is an 'I Heart Insurance' pin. This badge is usually pinned to Flo's apron on the top right side.
On the left side of the apron across from the badge is Flo's nametag. Her nametag is white with two blocks of color above it. The first block of color is orange and the second one is blue. Flo's name is typed in all caps using a plain font.
You'll want to purchase a watch that's small and has a brown leather band to match Flo's if you don't already have one like it. Finally, don't forget the auto insurance box that Flo carries. You can create your own insurance box or you might be able to find one to purchase that you can use as a prop.
Now all you need to do is add some bright red lipstick and your Flo costume will be complete. If you want to match Flo's lipstick exactly, then opt for MAC Lady Bug lipstick since it's the official brand she wears.
If you're looking for a fun costume idea, then you should consider dressing up as one of the characters from the Duck Dynasty show. Two of the most popular characters from the show are Uncle Si and his nephew, Willie, both of which you can find costumes for.
The Uncle Si costume comes with a camouflage hunting vest that has the Duck Dynasty logo on the left side. You can wear what you like under the jacket, even jeans and a t-shirt with long sleeves will work. But for best results, you'll probably want to wear a camouflage jacket and pants so it's more keeping with the character.
Along with the vest, you'll also get a hat and a pair of glasses that are similar to the ones Uncle Si wears on the show. Of course, the best part of the costume is the big, thick beard they're all known for. To complete the look, be sure to carry around a green tumbler and sip a beverage of your choice.
For Willie's costume, you'll get a hunting vest that looks similar to Uncle Si's. Also included are a bandana with the American flag and a fake beard. To get the look that Willie wears, pair faded blue jeans with a dress shirt and a white suit coat.
Another popular character from the Duck Dynasty show is Phil Robertson. He's the father of Willie, the voice of the narrator, and he's also Uncle Si's brother. A costume for Phil would include a beard and a camouflage bandanna or hat and possibly some comfortable sunglasses. Don't forget to pick up a duck call to complete the look.
One of the most popular female characters on Duck Dynasty is Miss Kay. She's the wife of Phil Robertson and mother to Willie. She's known for wearing an apron frequently on the show.
Sometimes, her aprons have her name on them and sometimes they don't. If you plan on dressing up as Miss Kay, then look for a costume that has an apron packaged with it.
Another thing that could be included with a Miss Kay costume would be a dark wig and possibly rain boots as she's known to wear them frequently. Miss Kay's biggest passion besides her faith and her family is cooking.
So to complete the look of your Miss Kay costume, grab a plastic bowl and stirring spoon. You can even put powdered sugar or white flour in the bowl. Take a small bit of the flour or sugar and blow on it for a true Miss Kay look.
