It was not too shocking to find that 56% of over 3,000 people polled online said Steve Jobs will be their number one costume choice this year, putting Charlie Sheen dead last with only 6% of the popular vote. Angry Birds drew roughly 20% while zombies took a close third with 18% of our voters.
Becoming Steve Jobs for Halloween is simple if you can gather the necessary iWear before it's sold out like the $175 St. Croix mock-turtleneck. But this item can be easily replaced with the affordable $20 L.L. Bean version.
Then buy yourself some 992 New Balance sneakers, Levi's 501 jeans and scare up a pair of round spectacles. Blammo! You're Steve Jobs. For obsessive authenticity, rent a silver Mercedes SL55 AMG and remove the license plates just like Jobs did and be sure to keep a mildly unshaven look too.
For those 6% of 'winning' Charlie Sheen fanboys, you can grab yourself a 3/4 mask for $19.95 at Ricky's Costume Superstore or just go with the broke-ass Sheen wig for $20 bucks. Becoming Steve Jobs with an authentic costume is the easy part, but being Steve beyond the turtleneck shirt will be your biggest challenge. Good luck with that.
