14 Couples' Halloween Costumes That'll Make You The Hottest Witches At The Party — But Less Basic

Instagram/@sophiet

Halloween is one of the best holidays of the year, but picking out a costume that suits you and your significant other can sometimes be a challenge — sometimes it's even scarier than October 31st itself.

If you're still uncertain about what costume you and your boo want to take on this year, let this list inspire you with different ways to spook (or goof) up the party. Either way, you'll surely win the costume contest.

Morticia and Gomez Addams

"They're creepy and they're kooky, mysterious, and spooky...". The Addams Family matriarch Morticia and patriarch Gomez are a fun Halloween costume. From the classic show The Addams Family, you'll be recognizable; but even for someone who isn't familiar with the show, their creepy look is great for Halloween. Plus, it's still easy to have fun at a party in their simple outfits.

If you're going with a group, you can easily include other members of the family, and these costumes would also be very easy to gender-bend. It's also a costume you can easily put together from a thrift shop or things you already have in your closet.

Avocado Toast

This one's particularly funny if the "avocado" is pregnant, so the belly bump can be the pit.

Disney Prince and Princess

Mermaid and Sailor

Are you mer-made for each other? This beachy costume is anything but washed up. You can find a mini tutorial on how to get this look here.

Beetlejuice and Lydia

This classic creepy film is fun for showing off your dark sides. Alternatively, you could dress up as the Maitlands.

Pilot and Wingman

Ron Swanson and Bacon

Ron Swanson and bacon, Mona Lisa and Jean Ralphio Saperstein, or Burt Macklin and Janet Snakehole... the "Parks and Rec" possibilities are endless!

Ash Ketchum and Misty

Paige Ryan

This costume is super easy and very recognizable!

Suzy and Sam from 'Moonrise Kingdom'

Such an iconic movie, this costume has been the choice of many celebrities over the years, including Vic Fuentes and Ariana Grande.

Low Battery and No Wifi

Dead batteries and no wifi, oh my!

Bank Robbers from Money Heist (La Casa de Papel)

'The Shining' Twins

Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee

Betty and Jughead or Veronica and Archie

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
