Lois Lane Necklace and Name Tag
In order to make sure everyone knows that you are wearing a Lois Lane costume buy or make a Lois Lane name tag and wear it around your neck on a necklace.
If you make your own make sure to include her name and an ID photo and make it look like it is her ID badge for her job at The Daily Planet. Because Lois Lane ID badges are so cheap we would personally recommend that you buy one over making your own. |
