How to put it together
- 1
Put on a light, breathable base layer like a t-shirt and shorts to prevent overheating inside the fleece.
- 2
Step into the Snorlax onesie and zip or button it up completely.
- 3
Pull the hood over your head, ensuring the character face and ears sit flat on top of your head.
- 4
Put on the cream-colored mittens to complete the paw look.
- 5
Slip into cozy blue or cream slippers or plush socks.
- 6
Practice your best sleepy yawn or find a comfortable spot to lay down for photos.
Makeup & hair
Keep makeup minimal with a clean face, or paint a small black nose and two tiny white fangs pointing up from your lower lip. Tuck your hair completely inside the hood to keep the character silhouette clean.
