Is it too on-the-nose to suggest convincing your S.O. to dress up with you as a version of another modern power couple for Halloween? We say nay.

1.
2. Pennywise and the Raincoat Kid from 'It'
If people can dress their baby up in killer-clown cosplay thinking that it won't affect his development, then you and your person can go as the aforementioned killer clown and his prey. It's cute! Balloons! Variation: Pennywise and the Babadook, still a better romance than Twilight.
Stutterheim, $295

3. Beauty and the Beast
This will be one of the most popular costumes this year, but if you really want to.
Target, $38

4. Tormund and Brienne of Tarth
To really sell it, the Tormund half should "make love to [a] sandwich as he eyeballs me," the "me" being the Brienne part of this package deal. Meanwhile, Brienne Half™ looks disdainful.
Ikea, $15
