A costume for my cousin

So as you know I'm hosting a large Halloween party. My cousin says she won't come because she doesn't like to dress up. I told her there is no pressure though everyone pretty much does. She doesn't want to be that person not dressed up. When I told her just wear something simple like when her brother came as a Yankee fan wearing assorted Yankee memorabilia she said that's a cop out and wouldn't want to do that either. Seems like I just can't win. So I'm reaching out to you my fellow Halloween aficionados what can I suggest she wear that wouldn't be a lot of work yet still wouldn't be a cop out costume?

Depends on how old she is? If dhe's young dress up like an old lady, if she's older, dress like a kid. I have a set of eye ball PJ's I wore when I was prego, I went as the all seeing eye. I only gianed 2 lbs with my youngest, so I went up one size just in case, so needless to say they still fit me, but they are really cute 
She could also go as a man thats pretty easy too. Good luck!!!

I should have mentioned her age. She is 22 I think(I have A LOT of cousins it's hard to keep track of exact ages).

One of my fellow paranormal blog authors went to a party last year. She's not very big into dressing up... but she got a friend of hers to coordinate clothing. They both wore the same thing (jeans and a tee-shirt) and went to the party as "copy and paste".
My other suggestion would be one of those tee-shirts with the body of some sort of Halloween character on the front... it's dressing up, but not.
... or she could always go as "Bull-Sheet"... and wear bull horns under a white bed sheet. (It's a good time to get cheap beddding if you live in a college town... back to school stuff should be going on sale soon.)

Let's see... she's 22. What do 22 year old girls like to do? Tap, tap, tap...
Have her search Halloween makeup tutorials. Here are a few to start...
