From L to R: Alessandra Ambrosio and Jamie Mazur, Ryan Seacrest and Julianne Hough, Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey
It's that time of year again! Halloween has come among us again. With Halloween comes all sorts of costumes. The fun and quirky such as, Mario or Luigi. The overly sexual costumes such as a playboy bunny or a nurse. Then there's the couple costumes, yes they get their own category. Couple costumes can always be really cute and adorable and sometimes really bad.
During this time, we always see celebrity couples dress up as different pop culture characters (my personal favorite is the Bonnie and Clyde worn by Ryan Seacrest and Julianne Hough). So obviously ladies, when we see these costumes we definitely get inspired and want our beau to dress up with us! So down below I have narrowed down Top 8 Costumes for you and your partner to wear to a Halloween party, to give out candy, or just to dress up for fun!
All of these costumes can be wearable for best friends or same sex couples, enjoy!
1. Morticia and Gomez Addams
Feeling especially spooky that night, dress up as everyone's favorite Halloween couple, Morticia and Gomez from the Addams family.
For Morticia: If you so happen to have a black maxi dress, that's absolutely perfect! Add a pair of lace gloves or if you so happen to have a lace black kimono, that works too. Finish the look off by parting your hair down the middle and straighten it, then go bold with your makeup by doing a really dark smokey eye and a oxblood lipstick, don't forget to contour your cheeks!
For Gomez: Get yourself a striped black and grey suit, with a white button-up shirt. Add a small bow-tie and if you don't already have a mustache, ask your Morticia to help you draw one on! Don't forget to slick back your hair!
Bonus Points: If you're both pretty pale and have other relatives to complete the Addams family trio. Also, Morticia, during the night cut a rose or two.
2. Blair Waldorf and Chuck Bass
If you can get your beau to dress up as Chuck Bass and you dress up as Blair Waldorf, you better love him for forever and even longer than that. This is one costume I would love to see all couples try. Believe me when I say you don't need to have your clothes be as expensive as their's, but definitely dress the best you can.
For Blair Waldorf, ladies rock your most classiest, elegant dress you own and a stunning pair of heels to match. Finish the look off with some fabulous jewelry and if you're feeling especially like Blair, rock an initial necklace, curl your hair, and some lipstick of your choice.
For Chuck Bass, men go all out with this look. Put on a nice, crisp button-up shirt, a suit jacket, suit pants, bow tie or tie (whatever you're feeling), and some dress shoes. Also, slick back your hair for the full Chuck appearance.
Bonus Points: If your boyfriend says "I'm Chuck Bass" everywhere you go.
3. Bonnie and Clyde
By now, everyone has heard of the famous couple, Bonnie and Clyde. If you and your partner are feeling quite dangerous (not really) that night, this is the perfect costume for you.
For Bonnie, go completely 20's and put on your best dress and add some Mary-Jane heels. Finish the look off with curled hair, red lipstick, and a nice hat.
For Clyde, keep the 20's theme coming. Put on a very nice suit, a simple tie, and a fedora.
Bonus Points: If during some part of the night, you just yell "Don't mess with Bonnie and Clyde!"
4. Jay Gatsby and Daisy Buchanan
Is your beau as madly in love with you, as Jay Gatsby was with Daisy? Well stay tuned for an inspired look if he is.
For Daisy, think 1920's flapper, so go all out with the glitz and glamour. Start the look off by putting on a bedazzled shift dress, some nude Mary-Janes, and a bold, glittery headband. Don't forget the jewelry that's the most important part. Layer on pearls, diamonds, your finest jewelry.
For Jay, put on your best suit, with a nice button-up shirt, dress pants, and shoes.
Bonus Points: If you host a really amazing party and invite everyone, just don't tell everyone who you are and let them figure it out. Also, hold a wine glass in the air to show everyone how amazing you are.
5. Mickey and Minnie Mouse
Everyone's favorite couple, the lovely Mickey and Minnie. They were basically the start of couples (forget I said that.)
For Minnie: Put on a red and white polka-dot dress, with some yellow pumps (or sneakers). Don't forget your white gloves and add a red hat if you want to go all out.
For Mickey: Guys, please don't go shirtless like Mickey does, I beg of you. Put on a simple black tee shirt, some red pants, yellow sneakers (if you just so happen to have them), and obviously don't forget your white gloves.
For Mickey and Minnie: Don't forget your ears, those are crucial!
6. Sandy Olson and Danny Zucco
My favorite movie couple, the beautiful Sandy Olson and handsome Danny Zucco. This costume will be easily recognized by everyone.
For Sandy: Grab a black off-the-shoulder crop top (or just a crop top in general) or just a black tee shirt, some leather-like pants (if you have disco pants, use them!), and some red wedges. Finish the look off by curling your hair like crazy and add some mascara and red lipstick.
For Danny: Put on a simple black tee shirt, some black pants, and a pair of Converse. Grease is the word, so slick your hair back completely and keep a comb just in handy.
Bonus Points: Throughout the night, you and your beau just start randomly singing 'You're The One I Want' and if you just casually say "Tell me about it stud".
7. Batman and Catwoman
Now, I'm not sure if I'm the only one who's a little confused if Batman and Catwoman are a couple. Nonetheless, this is a very sexy costume that anyone would know who you were.
For Catwoman: Put on your sleekest, skinniest black clothing and don't forget your heeled boots (or all black converse). Finish the look off with some cat ears, goggles, and a little lipstick.
For Batman: Like your catwoman, put on all black clothing and of course don't forget your batman mask. Also add some gloves if you get chilly, you too catwoman!
Bonus Points: If you just so happen to want to save people that night, by all means, I mean you are Batman and Catwoman.
8. Barbie and Ken
Everyone knows about Barbie and Ken and their relationship. Obviously the photo up above shows the two dolls from the Toy Story movie but you can do the one from the past.
For Barbie: If you so happen to have some 80's workout gear, that's absolutely perfect. But if you don't just improvise with a bold color tank top, some leggings to match, a belt, leg warmers, and some sneakers. Don't forget to add some pink lipstick if you really want to get that Barbie look.
For Ken: This is a very bold look, so you better be up for the challenge. Start off by grabbing a very, very bold button-up shirt, but the buttons unbuttoned. Add some shorts, whatever color you like and finish the look off with a nice neck tie and some sneakers. Don't forget to sleek your hair back.
Bonus Points: If you guys walk and talk like dolls for the rest of the night and complement each other on what you're wearing from time to time.
Thanks so much for reading! If you and your partner dress up as any of these costumes or any other costumes, please email them to me at stylebydesign@gmail.com! Remember to be safe and have fun, don't take this night so serious!
