10 Halloween Costume Ideas for the Cool Couple
It is that time of the year, time to figure out what to be for Halloween this year. With a little over a week to go, this is going to be your year to give all the other costumes a run for their money. Couple costumes are always so fun to see and create. Here are 10 awesome costume ideas for the cool couple.
1. Notebook Lovers
If you are a bird, then I’m a bird right??! If you are feeling the love this Halloween this is the perfect costume for you are your significant other. Everybody loves a good Nicholas Sparks reference, and if you don’t you are lying. There are a lot of different ways to accomplish this costume. Overall though, a hat and a casual outfit is a great way to resemble Noah, and this red outfit is a great way to resemble Allie. If you can not do this Allie look, any dress or feminine outfit that screams romance and southern belle will work just fine. Another plus to this costume is that you have already got a pose for your pictures, hint the one above!
2. Romeo & Juliet
Another great costume that brings the romance is Romeo and Juliet, specifically from the 1996 film. Two words, armor and angel. While usually contrasting ideas, the two go hand in hand to recreate this iconic look. Whoever is Juliet has an easy wardrobe, white dress and white wings. The vibe is romantic and ethereal. As for Romeo, go all out by finding a bit of armor. This look will bring a night you will never forget!
3. Sonny & Cher
If there is one thing that is known, it is how iconic Sonny and Cher are. The fashion, the vibes, the everything! It would be foolish to not consider them for an incredible couples halloween costume. This look is going to require some bell bottoms, long hair, color filled outfits, and above all attitude.
4. Bradshaw & Big
If you are a city girl like me, you will jump at any excuse to reference Sex and the City. Although I may still be looking for the Big to my Carrie, this is the perfect costume for those of you who are lucky enough to have found him already! Mr. Big needs a suit. The man is big shot, and older dude, let that show. As for Carrie, there are a lot of different ways you could put her outfit together. Carrie is a maximalist so add lots of color, accessories and fun to the look. In the show, she does a great job of mixing just the right amount of sexy with just the right amount of cute. A young, flirty, and feminine look is what you are shooting for.
5. Austin Powers
Here we go baby! Now this is a fun halloween costume for you and your significant other. You are going to need a mini skirt or dress and high boots. Your makeup and hair can be super fun and girly. Now for Austin, a velvet suit is essential along with one of those ruffle ties that is one of his famous trade marks. You are going to have a night filled with so much fun dressing up as these two!
6. Tony Stark & Pepper Potts
Now this one is a personal favorite. Nothing screams power couple like Tony Stark and Pepper Potts. You have a couple options here, you can go full blown iron man or hotshot Tony Stark. Or like David pictured above do a mix of both. As for Pepper Potts, you are going for business chic yet sexy. A clipboard is mandatory and straight hair would be best. I can guarantee that not many people will be in this costume and you will turn heads all night.
7. David & Victoria Beckham
Iconic celebrity couples are always so fun to dress up as. Not only are you taking after your style in the costume, but you can also embody their personalities. David and Victoria Beckham are one of the most iconic celebrity couples when it comes to fashion and pop culture. Did you know that they only met four times before becoming engaged. So crazy! For this costume you have the option to either go with soccer player and spice girl, or recreate one of their iconic paparazzi looks like the one featured above. Either are great and unique options for the coolest couple at the party.
8. Jackie & Hyde
Playing reference to That 70’s Show is both an easy and unique way to dress up with your significant other this Halloween. The show has a very obvious theme of taking place en the 70’s which is a great place to start for costume attire. Jackie usually has her hair curled and is in a mini skirt. Denim is a great way to achieve both Jackie and Hyde’s look. If you are doing Hyde, he needs sunglasses. Bonus points if you have similar hair or you get a wig to match his afro. His costume itself is very relaxed, as pictured above, and odds are you have something that works in your current closet.
9. Britney & Justin
Yay another celebrity couple! This one is also so iconic. From the early 2000’s in the era of Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake. One word…denim! Nothing is off limits for this look. The bigger the better, the more the better, the crazier the better! The key is to make all your denim look like a red carpet look. A great way to do this is by playing with shoes and accessories to spice up the look. Just go to your nearest thrift store and find crazy denim and there you go an iconic Halloween costume!
10. Ana & Christian
This costume is the one for you and your significant other if you are looking to spice things up this Halloween. 50 shades of Cool is how you are going to make this look happen. The best way to play reference to Christian and Ana is through the masquerade scene like the photo featured above. Masks and black-tie is the theme. And of course do’t forget to make it sexy!
