Carbon Costume Women
Veronica Mars
Life in California can be tough for a teen, especially when you spend your free time investigating various crimes, including the murder of your best friend. When she’s not spending time in her dark room, you’ll find Veronica hanging with biker gangs or her bestie, Wallace. If you find yourself in trouble, you better enlist the help of the former popular girl turned private eye.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Buffy is a cheerleader turned butt-kicking slayer who found a home in Sunnydale, right on top of the Hellmouth. When she’s not taking out vamps or other nasties, she loves spending time with pals Willow and Xander or training in the library with Giles. Everyone knows (even vampires), if you’re smart you’ll be sure to side with The Chosen One.
Gadget Hackwrench
In Chip ‘n Dale Rescue Rangers, Gadget Hackwrench acts as the team’s pilot, mechanic, and jack of all trades. Not only is she the object of affection for Chip and Dale, but she’s worshipped by a Russian cult. Golly.
Nancy Drew
Emma Roberts plays Nancy Drew, a teenage girl with a knack for sleuthing. She tries to fit in at high school, but realizes that she’s most at home wearing preppy clothes and investigating unsolved murder mysteries.
Yolandi Visser from Die Antwoord
Yolandi Visser, aka Yo-Landi Vi$$er, fronts the South African rap group Die Antwoord with Ninja. Don’t be fooled by the pink and ponytail – her style is equal parts cute and nightmare fuel.
Spring Breakers
If you want to get your hands dirty Spring Breakers style, opt for a pink unicorn ski mask and a skimpy bikini. These girls may appear harmless on the outside, but they are willing to do what it takes to get what they want.
Edith in Despicable Me
Edith is at first skeptical of Gru’s intentions but warms up to him after he makes her pancakes in the shape of dead bodies. Though Edith is a tomboy, she’s never seen without her pink hat on.
Ellie from The Last of Us
In the Playstation 3 game The Last of Us, a 20-year pandemic has decimated civilization, leaving infected humans and survivors to kill each other for food and weapons. 14-year-old Ellie is prepared to escape the quarantine zone and cross the post-apocalyptic landscape – after all, she’s brought an empty backpack!
Miss Blankenship
Miss Blankenship was briefly Don Draper’s secretary during season 4 of Mad Men. She wasn’t exactly the youngest or hottest in the office, but we all enjoyed her outspokenness and quirky spirit. Don’t be fooled by her cataract goggles or her homemade afghan – she was even known to have had an escapade with young Roger Sterling back in the day.
