'Men (and Woman) In Black'

TikToker Brooke Justine and her partner took the easy (yet clever) route with their Halloween costumes this year. With only a suit jacket, white button-down, and a tie, they gave what needed to be given in their Men in Black-inspired get-up. For maximum believability, head to your local Spirit Halloween or Party City for tiny alien blow-up dolls.

Dora the Explorer and Backpack

It's spooky season and the swipers are swiping — which makes Dora the Explorer the perfect person to protect the streets this Halloween. And if you're partner isn't totally buying the bob cut, they have options. Either they can strap on your shoulders and transform into Dora's backpack, or play the villain and dress up as Swiper. Dealer's choice.

Lola Bunny and Bugs Bunny couples costume

When you mention icons, you can't forget the OG of animated television — the one and only Bugs Bunny. But what would Bugs be without Lola? Our guess is just a Bunny with a dream. You and your partner can pull off this look with a jersey (found on Amazon), a pair of bunny ears, basketball shorts, and sneakers.

Or you can just cop the entire 'fit from DollsKill.com.

Jack and Sally or Victor and Emily

For couples who grew up watching Tim Burton classics and other movies that were just a little too creepy for your younger siblings to watch with you, Jack and Sally from The Nightmare Before Christmas or Victor and Emily from The Corpse Bride are great couples costumes.

Frog and Toad

These costumes could really work with any gender — but for same-sex couples especially, Frog and Toad from the classic children's books is a unique and fun option to consider this Halloween.

Steve Irwin and his crocodile

Yes, you can also consider going as Lily and Mia from The Princess Diaries. But if you want to truly be original, go dressed as the late Steve Irwin and his favorite wild animal, the crocodile.
