Yes, I am aware that there is a whole 2 months until the scary holiday will come around. Today, I went to a craft store and already saw Halloween merchandise on sale. Although it’s still early, I want to plan out my costume without any time management stress and without any rush.
My boyfriend and I are that cheesy couple who want to match costumes. Last year, we were Daisy and Luigi from Super Mario. His little cousins were coincidentally Mario and Peach. I only had 2 weeks to make our costumes but I ended finishing last minute. His overalls were quite the challenge. Help me decide what we should be this year!
1. Link and Princess Zelda. We’re complete Zelda nerds and it’s been a dream of both of our’s that we dress up at Link and Princess Zelda. I was Link a few years ago but I never had the opportunity to be Princess Zelda. It’s our favorite video game series so dressing up as the characters will be exciting.
2. Officer and Convict. Whether I am the convict or the officer, I’ve always thought this was a cute costume idea.
3. Hannah Montana and Billy Ray Stewart. This one would just be for laughs. And the fact that I’ve always wanted to be Hannah for Halloween.
4. Characters from League of Legends. We’re both pretty addicted to this game and we both have favorite characters and champions. The costumes would definitely be fun to make.
What do you guys think? What other costumes for couples do you recommend?

I love LoL!
I would do #1 or #4, but I suppose it depends on what kind party you’re going to, because unless you’re a video game nerd (like me, haha) alot of people may not get your costumes.
guest
Out of all of those, I would pick Link and Zelda if I were you (I’m also a nerd, but I don’t have a bf to share costumes with…).

Do zombies! My boyfriend and I went as zombies last year and I had SO much fun doing the makeup. You really just need a good makeup kit and tutorial, some old, torn-up clothes, and lots of fake blood.
This is a close-up of my zombie bite wound:

And this is a picture of my boyfriend and I (sorry for the terrible quality, but you get the idea):

Do you mean billy ray cyrus? Zelda and Link would be adorable.
guest
Don’t ever use the socket and the plug costumes. Super cliche, and annoying.
I think the Zelda and Link idea is adorable.
guest
I would definite vote for link and zelda

Zelda and Link!!
I love the Twilight Princess video game!

Whatever you do, don’t be Hannah. Lol. A father daughter combo being done by a couple has an “ewww” factor to it. The Zelda one is the way to go. Here, this video is hilarious and you may like it. Lol. Has Peach and Zelda talking about their guys.

I really want to do Ron Burgundy and Veronica Corningstone with my sweetie. We could totally pull it off (of course, I’d be a chubbier version of her, but still)…he can drop Will Ferrell quotes like rapid gunfire and I love any excuse to put on a wig and dress in 70′s clothes
I would vote for either the Zelda/Link one or the police officer one, that’s kinda cute. The only problem i have with “sexy cop” is that’s it’s too cliche.

@Ashley Nicole Anders@facebook - Oh wow. I shall take that as a compliment >=) She’s gorgeous
guest
@lilytran - Ohhh never seen the show! The couples idea is definitely adorable though.
guest
LINK AND ZELDA!! Most definitly
Other than the cop/convict, id be the easiest to know who you guys would be
Your luigi and Daisy costume is really cute too!
guest
First of all, you and your bf are epic to match costumes for Nintendo characters <3. My bias would be go as another game couple. Totally would love to see the linkxzelda match <33.
guest
Link and Zelda. Definitely.
guest
why the FUCK would you wanna be billy rae and miley cyrus!?
guest
Zelda and Link!!!!!!
guest
Link and Zelda would be the cutest/most creative/coolest.
guest
Holy Shamoly! I never thought I’d see other xanga-ans mention LoL! I say most definitely. My next costume project is actually League of Legends-y. I was originally planning ‘annie’ cause the rest of the women are a bit too ‘endowed’ for my style- but I’ll see! I think it’ll be come more popular at conventions too~
guest
Zelda and Link! I’m trying to pull together a sweet Sheik costume for Halloween myself. :3

@crystalstarrlight@xanga - I wanted to be commando Lux! And have my boyfriend be Singed. Either that or we’ll be Ashe and Tryndamere!
You should be new Annie skin and wear a bear costume. Then have someone be Tibbers in Annie’s costume haha.
guest
@lilytran - I saw the new annie costume! It’s just that the tibbers.. erm… has become an exotic she-male? haha. I think both of your choces are pretty rad
I say he’s a singed person- you can probably pull off both lux and ashe, hmmm. I’m into lux but don’t just listen to me xD If your man wants to be a buff and annoying escape artist, he can certainly be one. (Trynd has always irked me on field- he escapes so often!)
guest
Ive totally been wanting to do Storm Shadow and Baroness ever since I saw the movie just last year.

Go for the League of Legends, they look like some fun costume potential.
guest
dress up like a slut, though isn’t that normal for you?
jk, I had to.
Do #1 make a sack of bombs for him!
guest
i was hannah last year and no one really got it. (there are a lot of blondes in the world)

I’m not entirely fan of a how you make costumes but if you can make it beautiful..and can do it well..be Link and Zelda
guest
You should go as Princess Zelda, and have him be Sheik.
That’d be so awesome.
The Luigi and Daisy picture is so cute!
And you look exactly like London from the Suite Life in that photo.
LoL is probably too obscure to be recognized (depending upon gamer attendance at the party you attend, of course), and the Miley one doesn’t really look like a costume. You’d have to sell it somehow… like, pop it, lock it, polka-dot it. Something like that.
The greatest duo on television right now is Phineas and Ferb… hmm…
Though if you look that good in yellow, there’s always the classic him-as-Ash, you-as-Pikachu!
guest
King Tryndamere and Queen Ashe, for sure!
Or your boyfriend could be Mario and you could be a Star so he’d have to catch you. Har har…ok back to my essay.
