It’s finally October which means three things. Cosy nights in, Pumpkin Spice Latte’s and best of all – Halloween!
Halloween is without a doubt the best time of year. Spooky movies, cute autumn decor, pumpkin pie, darker evenings, wooly hats. Need we say more?
And we can’t forget that epic Halloween dress-up party. If you haven’t got a significant other to do a cute couples costume with this year, don’t fret, why not do a besties costume instead!
Here are 12 amazing Blonde and Brunette costume ideas for you and your best friend this Halloween.
- OMG: How much money did Facebook lose yesterday?
1. Regina and Gretchen
Halloween is the one day a year when a girl can dress up like a total sl*t and no other girls can say anything else about it, right?
So, why not dress up as Regina and Gretchen from the iconic movie Mean Girls. If you have a third friend, you could add in Karen too and go as the full plastics trio.
You could do their classic “on Wednesday’s we wear pink” look, the cute Christmas dresses, or even wear exactly what they wear to the Halloween party. The options are endless!
2. Angel and Devil
It’s a classic. As a set of blonde and brunette besties, you really can’t go wrong with Angel and Devil.
The blonde wears a white outfit complete with dress, angel wings and halo, whilst the brunette wears a red, or black, devil outfit, complete with horns and trident.
Yeah, you might not get any points for originality. But your outfits will be totally hot.
3. Cher and Dionne
If you’re a chick-flick lover, then how about going as the girly duo from the 1995 film Clueless.
Cher is the sweet, airhead blonde girl who wears the iconic yellow and white plaid skirt suit.
Dionne is her fashionista best friend, with brunette hair, a black and white skirt suit and red sweater vest.
4. Elsa and Anna
Are you Disney obsessed? Well, this Halloween costume might just be the one for you.
If you’re a blondie with a brunette bestie, why not go as sisters Elsa and Anna from Frozen. Okay, Anna is more ginger than brunette, but it’ll still work.
Whilst you’re free to wear full ballgowns if you wish, there’s also the option to sexy-up this costume idea too, with an array of shorter dresses and frozen-inspired bodysuits on the market.
5. Sandy and Betty
Sandy and Danny from Grease is one of the most popular couple’s costumes out there, but you could also do it as a blonde and brunette.
The blonde can be Sandy, of course, wearing either her cute yellow flowy dress with white Peter Pan collar shirt, or her iconic end-of-the-movie black leather pants and red heels combo.
As a brunette, you could be almost any of the other girls in the movie. Betty, Frenchy, Jan, Principal McGee. Take your pick!
6. Serena and Blair
Okay, this one might just be our favourite. For Halloween 2021, why not go as iconic movie best friends Serena and Blair from the TV show Gossip Girl.
Serena is the blonde bombshell, whose effortless, boho-chic style is said to be inspired by model Kate Moss. Blair’s style is just as elegant, but very classic, preppy and polished.
Will you and your bestie go as Serena and Blair this Halloween? You know you want to. Xoxo, Gossip Girl.
7. Caroline and Elena
What’s one of the most popular Halloween costumes of all time? A vampire of course!
But why not take the simple vampire costume one step further and go as Caroline and Elena from The Vampire Diaries.
You’ve got quite a lot of choice on what to wear with this one. Just make sure you add vampire fangs and fake blood to get the full effect.
8. Betty and Veronica
Any Riverdale fans out there? The show kinda fizzled out after a few seasons, but it still makes for a great Halloween costume.
If you’re a blonde and brunette duo, you could go as main characters Betty and Veronica.
Betty is the cute blonde who wears girly outfits, whilst Veronica is a little more risqué. Or, why not wear the famous Riverdale High School cheerleading outfit.
9. Phoebe and Monica
So no one told you life was gonna be this way *clap clap clap clap*. Your job’s a joke, you’re broke, your love life’s DOA.
Yes, our next best friend’s Halloween costume comes from none other then Friends. I know what you’re thinking, why didn’t I think of this one?
The blonde had to go as Phoebe, obvs. But the brunette could go as Monica or Rachel, the choice is yours!
10. Sharpay and Gabriella
If you were a girl born in the late 90s, you no doubt grew up watching High School Musical.
Whilst Troy and Gabriella is a perfect couple’s costume, Gabriella and Sharpay is a great idea for blonde and brunette friends too.
Sharpay is totally extra with bright colours, feathers, sparkle and jewels, whilst Gabriella is far more low-key.
11. Taylor and Selena
For this one, we’re moving away from movies and into music.
What better Halloween costume than real life blonde and brunette besties Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez?
Again, the fashion choices are pretty endless here, but Pinterest is a good place to start looking at some of the pair’s most iconic duo looks.
12. Blonde Barbie and Brunette Barbie
Every girl grows up wanting to be Barbie, so why not actually be one for Halloween?
Everyone sees Barbie as the girl with long blonde hair and bright pink clothes, but Barbie can be brunette too!
You can both wear matching dresses, barbie necklaces, hot pink heels and a a perspex bag and look totally adorable.
