As I said last year, I fear the days of whole family-themed costumes may be behind us. There was a brief time this summer when Skyler declared she wanted to be a mermaid, and Aron and I planned to join her as King Triton (him) and Sebastian (me), but by the time October came around she’d rolled through multiple new ideas. This year, Aron and I are once again on our own.
Anyone else in the same boat? Here are some very clever costumes for couples to help you get inspired, along with a few more from our collection…
Lighting and Storm
Beetlejuice couple
Jack & Wendy or The Twins from The Shining
Of course, Party City now has a whole couple section.
As does Target.
All of these mom & kid costumes could be made into couple pairings. I love the Edward Scissorhands with topiary!
And, finally, a few of our own!
and Holmes & Watson
Have you seen anything really original lately?
P.S. More Halloween inspiration for the whole family. And the first time Aron and I coordinated—as Bonnie & Clyde.
