Are you in a chatty mood? If you wear this costume, prepare for friendly Game of Thrones banter all night because this costume idea is legendary. After that season seven finale of Game of Thrones, who wouldn’t want to see Daenerys and Jon walk into a Halloween party? Jon Snow may know nothing, but we guarantee you will know just about everyone at the party if you wear this costume. Yes, that finale was crazy. Sure, it would be crazy if dragons existed in real life. Either way, we're sure you'll win the Iron Throne of the night with this look. 

The show has an amazing costume department that has tailored the clothes to fit the characters. Each character on the show is unique so you are very likely to stand out. Now for any power couple out there the obvious choice is Jon and Daenerys as they are goals! Lucky for you it is pretty simple to achieve their signature kick-ass style: for Daenerys all you need is a long black dress, a platinum blonde wig, and a dragon pin; for Jon you'll need a black shirt, a faux fur cloak, and a brown wig. Very budget friendly with a little DIY to make it your own, this is a great option! If only we could find a dragon or two...

"I'm Janet Snakehole. I'm a very rich widow with a terrible secret." Recreate this iconic roleplaying moment between Parks and Recreation's Andy and April by dressing up as their respective alter egos, FBI agent Burt Macklin and mysterious widow Janet Snakehole. Relive every perfect moment by slapping your very own Burt Macklin when he dares to come near (just make sure you ask your costume-partner for consent first). In these get-ups, just see if you and your costume partner can go the whole night without adopting a three-legged dog. We'd like to see you try. In the meantime, good luck trying to find all the president's rubies. 

Another budget friendly costume that will have all your friends envious for not coming up with the idea first! For Janet Snakehole you'll need a black dress, a black fascinator hat, and—how could we forget—a cigarette holder. Of course it wouldn't be Janet Snakehole without her pearls so make sure you don't forget them! As for your significant other, they'll need a windbreaker with the letters FBI printed in the front and some khakis to pair. You can't forget the most crucial part of the look—Burt's shades. Now if you really want to take this to the next level, don't forget to use Janet Snakehole's accent! 

Highlight this favorite video game duo, Mario and Princess Peach. Get creative; you can make them scary, or keep them classic. Whatever route you choose, level up your look by creating your own take on the iconic characters. An iconic pair from Nintendo's Mario franchise, Princess Peach is under constant attack by Bowser but Mario is always there to rescue her. Princess Peach is the damsel in distress who can't help but find herself in situations that Mario needs to save her from. If you've found the Mario to your Princess Peach then this is the best idea for a couple costume.

In order to achieve this look there are some specific elements that you need to incorporate into the look! For Princess Peach make sure you're wearing pink—lots of it. She has a rosy complexion and generally wears a pink evening gown with frilly trimmings, short puffy sleeves, and a pannier-style overskirt. However, in recent sport games she is seen wearing a variety of athletic clothing. You can't forget her fascinating accessories: red high heels, white evening gloves, cyan brooch and earrings, and her gold crown. Mario also has his own signature style because men can be fashionable too! He wears a longsleeved red shirt, a pair of blue overalls with yellow buttons, brown shoes, white gloves and a red cap with a red "M" printed on a white circle. Don't forget the distinguishable brown mustache that Mario is always sporting!

A classic! You can never go wrong sporting the iconic Grease couple Sandy and Danny. The only question is, does the Sandy half of your duo go as innocent Sandra Dee (lousy with virginity, as the song goes), or post-greaser-transformation "You're the One that I Want" Sandy? If you want to keep your look general and go as a tertiary character like Rizzo or Kenickie, just deck yourselves out in some T-Birds or Pink Ladies gear. Nonetheless, if you and your beau decide to dress up as Sandy and Danny may we recommend going as the "You're the One that I Want" pair? It's a rather simple look but it is easily recognizable—trust us it's anything but boring. 

For Sandy's look you're going to need a blond wig (if you already have blonde hair, power to you!) and you're going to make sure it's super curly and super voluminous. Make sure to pair a black off-the-shoulder top with some skinny black jeans. To finish off the outfit add some vibrant red heels! If you really want to complete the look, add some hoops and red lip and nails to match. Now for the Danny in your life, make sure you match by coordinating a tight black shirt with some tight black jeans. To really add that greaser vibe make sure his hair to really slicked back. All that's left is to memorize the lyrics because with a costume like this friends are going to be begging for a sing-along!

The amazing thing about this costume is that it's pretty gender neutral—you can decide amongst yourselves who should be who. For the White Rabbit you'll need blue trousers, a yellow dress shirt, and a red blazer. You'll top it off with a blue bow and a some rabbit ears. For accessories, you should have an umbrella, some vintage spectacles, and—last but not least—a pocket watch. As for your other half, there are a few pieces we need before tea time.

The piece that will really tie the whole look together is the oversized top hat with a hatband that reads "10/6." It is the hat's price tag and indicates the Mad Hatter's trade.

Some have taken inspiration from Forrest and Jenny's wedding while others use younger versions of the pair to play around different timelines.

Legendary singers and songwriters Johnny and June Cash will forever be cherished by die-hard fans of country music. They were a beloved couple in the music industry—they were married for 35 years! We love a strong and successful power couple, Johnny Cash and June Carter take the cake. If you agree you can dress up as them this Halloween. You don't necessarily need to be trained singers to pull off these iconic musical looks, but you should at least be prepared for requests of "Walk the Line." 

Because the relationship between Johnny Cash and June Carter flourished during the 1960s, their style is simple but elegant. Johnny Cash enjoyed wearing black so your beau should wear some black pants with a black dress shirt. Add some black shoes, a black vest, and a black tie to complete the costume. It is Johnny Cash we're talking about so don't forget your acoustic guitar. For June Carter find a floral, knee-length dress with some brown pumps.

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious! This one goes out to fans of musicals, or Disney, or both! A film so colorful and imaginative, it truly pushes you to work within in your own imagination. Julie Andrews and Dick Van Dyke immortalized their roles of Mary Poppins and Bert. The film provided years of laughter and music for over 54 years. With a new Mary Poppins movie coming to theaters in 2018 starring Emily Blunt and Lin-Manuel Miranda, what better way to show your excitement for the remake than by dressing as this favorite film duo? This creative costume will have everyone hoping the wind doesn't change anytime soon.

Just make sure the Joker half of your couple doesn't stoop to any Jared Leto-level method-acting shenanigans. 

We are going to be using Suicide Squad as a reference because...why not? Harley Quinn and The Joker were literally crazy in love and their outfits were ever so cool. Harley Quinn is all about blue and red so you're going to need her shiny blue and red shorts with some fishnet tights and high-heeled booties. Add the recognizable "daddy's little monster" shirt with the blue and red satin jacket. Don't forget the belt, glove, puddin necklace, bracelets, and Harley's bat.

For The Joker, look for some black slacks and a maroon button-down. Get some green colored hairspray for the hair and a fake gun. If you want to win the costume competition, make sure you draw the Joker's various tattoos with a black liquid or gel eyeliner.

Steve happily recognizes when Diana knows better than him, and isn't afraid to play the damsel to her knight in shining armor. You and your costume partner could dress up as World War I-era Steve and Diana from the first film, or nod to the upcoming movie with a more 80's aesthetic.

If post-apocalyptic science fiction is your thing then you have come to the right place. True, they despised each other at the start of The 100, but since have become one of Netflix’s most swoon-worthy couples. We enjoyed seeing Clarke and Bellamy go from enemies to lovers—as they say, hate is only one step away from love. As leaders of the 100, Clarke and Bellamy put their differences aside in order to lead their people to safety. Together they must overcome obstacles to ensure the safety of their people; they really put the power in powerful couples! If you and your boo want to channel your inner badass, survival-mode instincts then this is the costume for you!

Since we haven't experienced a post-apocalyptic setting, we can only imagine that the wardrobe would consist of one thing: practicality. Since everyone is trying to survive, Clarke and Bellamy dress to survive not impress so they use a lot of basics. That's great for us since we can use what we already have. For Clarke incorporate some military boots and leather jacket since those are her staple pieces. Add some dark wash jeans and some dark toned layering shirts to finish it off. For Bellamy, he'll need some black cargos and boots. Also look for a black jacket and some dark shirts; add a fake gun to perfectly resemble Bellamy.

Makes both top and bottoms are matching as any FBI agent would not been seen wearing mismatched suits. To really tie in the couple theme, we recommend keeping it classy by using black suits.

Want to party like it's 1922? Grab your best costume jewelry and get ready to recreate this iconic duo from F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic novel The Great Gatsby. Honestly we love any reason to travel back in time and the Roaring '20s was filled with over-the-top glamour that we love to relive and pay respect. Keep the spirit alive by using Baz Luhrmann's The Great Gatsby as fashion inspiration—it balances Art Deco and 21st Century modernity. This makes a particularly great look if you're attending a party where the decadence is only matched by the simmering, implicit despair. Get ready to pop some champagne and throw an oh so lavish party—Gatsby style!

The Jazz Age gave us the flapper fashion: dropped waists, loose fitting, and—the ever so daring—knee-length dresses. Women had an idealized androgynous look, mixing masculine details like ties and short haircuts in order to have a youthful look. The flapper bobs and cloche hats mixed with the figure-flattering dresses from Luhrmann's film are a perfect way to give you the '20s fashion but with a modern twist. To really embody Daisy, you'll need to look for stores that sell vintage-inspired dresses. Throw on some pearls and a jeweled headband to really become Daisy Buchanan. For the Gatsby in your life, make sure you look for three-piece suits, windsor ties, or bowties, to really set the time period. Seal the deal with some proper headwear like fedoras, golf caps, or straw boaters to transform your man into Jay Gatsby. Just learn the Charleston and you'll be set!

You can’t go wrong as Captain America and Peggy Carter. This powerhouse pair shows that you and your partner, to quote Peggy Carter, know your worth. Or you could also go as everyone's favorite non-canonical Marvel ship, Bucky Barnes—aka the Winter Soldier—and Cap. Whatever you do, just don't go as the cursed pairing of Sharon Carter and Captain America. There are our OTP and the 1940s setting really makes us feel nostalgic. This is perfect for those hopeless romantics. Also it's Captain America, how couldn't you choose this one? If you're a fan of this superhero, or your partner is, this is a great balance of Marvel Comics and cutesy romance. 

The couple has a few wardrobe variations so you can pick from some options: from Army uniforms to post-war phases, there is something for everyone. If you are having a hard time deciding, may we suggest going as Army Peggy and hero Captain America? Peggy Carter's look just screams 1940s glamour. You'll need a 1940s Army uniform that really hugs your curves, similar to the fashion of the time. Finish off the costume with some red lipstick and victory rolls. Captain America can also wear his Army uniform for the film but we suggest having your partner wear Captain America's suit—it's a great way to stand out and he probably wants to wear a superhero costume. Make sure you don't forget the famous shield!

What's this? What's this? It's a creative costume idea! This is a fun way for you and your partner to get creative and work together to make this costume. If you want to try something more on the spooky side, dress as the Pumpkin King and his ragdoll sweetheart from The Nightmare Before Christmas! Doubles as an excellent dress-up idea for any themed Christmas parties you might have on your festive itinerary. Who would've thought a scarecrow and a skeleton could be so romantic? They are truly a testament of undying love. Just keep in mind that you will be tempted to break into song and sing "This Is Halloween" and, honestly, it's not the worst thing!

For Sally's unconventional look is a lot of fun to recreate! You'll need a patchwork dress—if you enjoy using a sewing machine you can sew together different scraps of fabric to make up the dress or can buy a similar dress from your local Party City. This costume has a lot of versatility, you can either spray your hair with red hair spray of buy a cheap red wig to have similar hair to Sally's. Don't forget to had Sally's stitched with a black eyeliner and if you want to be extra, you can use blue body paint to have the same tint that Sally has. As for the Pumpkin King, you can either buy the exact costume off of Amazon or find a striped suit. Add Jack's funky bow and white face paint with some black touches for the eye sockets and teeth and you're complete. This is great because you can either go all out or tone it down, whichever you and your partner feel most comfortable with.

Do we have any fans of Netflix's Stranger Things? It has quickly become one of Netflix's successful series and with good reason, it has two of the best things: classic scary movie themes and '80s funky fashion. Because everyone and their mother has seen the show—or at least knows of it—there characters are distinguishable. Their outfits are pretty simple which means it doesn't break the budget. In season one of Stranger Things, Sheriff Hopper and Joyce Byers are implied to have a romantic history. Although in Season 2, Joyce seems reasonably content with her new boyfriend, Bob, who's considerably dorkier than Hopper. Perhaps you could step out on the town as Bob, Hopper, and Joyce, so everybody wins! 

It's no surprise but...Hopper sure loves his Hawkins Police Department uniform. Your boyfriend will need some khakis and a tan button up to match Hopper's. He also uses some brown boots and a badge so make sure you have that as well. Don't forget Hopper's beloved hat to tie it all together. As for Joyce, her eccentricity is reflected in her fashion. You can channel her quirkiness by pairing some black jeans with an olive green long sleeve shirt. Throw a blue button up on top and add a Christmas lights necklace. Buy a fake axe to really sell the costume!
