    For clothes you will need a red or black suit jacket and black pants. Look for shoulder pads in the jacket. Just wear a t-shirt underneath as you will be keeping your suit jacket buttoned up. Another option is a white colored shirt that lays over the suit jacket collar. A low pair of red or black pumps for your feet.

  2. Step 2

    Makeup should be gray eye shadow and glossy lips in a Mauve color. Vaseline will do the trick to keep it glossy. Use dark brown eyeliner on the bottom lashes and lots of blush.

    Your hair will need to be dark and have bangs and lifted in the back. Men can get a brown wig and style the hair and woman tease your hair at the crown before you pull it back and put in a banana clip. There is also a wig at Hollywood Wigs for $35.00 that would work.

  4. Step 4
    Tina Fey Glasses

    Glasses are a necessity to finish off the costume. Some people call these Tina Fey glasses. The glasses have a rectangle dark frame. You probably can find a pair at the drug store where they have magnifying glasses. Just take out the glass so that you can see.

  5. Step 5
    American Flag Pin

    Accessorize with a blackberry or a plastic gun or a red, white and blue scarf. A must is the dangling earrings. Put a Republican pin or U.S. Flag pin on your jacket. You could also make your own name tag that says, Gov. Palin.

on 10/30/2008 For added fun have a friend (or two) dress up as a moose (Bullwinkle costume, maybe?) and "Sarah" can shoot him.
Biggest Halloween scare of all would be letting the genuine article anywhere near the White House, however.

on 10/30/2008 For my Sarah Palin costume I'm wearing a whole bunch of dead animal pelts with blood on them pinned to the suit. My pin will read: "I'm pro-life, but I love to kill God's little creatures!". I'm sure it will be a smash at the conservative restaurant I work at...
