About
Steal Her Look is a meme which involves taking a character, person, or inanimate object which is unlikely to make a popular Halloween costume and put it beside a collection of clothes and accessories that would roughly replicate their look. This meme can also be used to insult the person in the original person, by including something unpleasant, such as a garbage can as their look, implying they are in face garbage.
