Everyone talks about couples’ costumes for Halloween, but the best costume pairing can be with your little one. Your child looks up to you and admires everything you do, including your clothes. Before your little one gets too old and is too cool to match, soak up the time you have to rock the twin outfits and costumes. Whether it’s adorable, laugh-out-loud funny, or spooky, you and your child will easily win the award for “Best Costume.”
Here are five Halloween costume ideas for you and your mini-me:
A Girl and Her Barbie Doll

Barbie was all the rage this summer with the cinematic Blockbuster hit. With Barbiecore taking over every industry, there’s no better costume theme this October. Take a style note from Beyoncé, Jay Z and Blue Ivy. Beyoncé paid homage to the first-ever Barbie from 1959 and wore a black-and-white striped bodysuit. Blue wore a leather jacket with “Barbie” written across the back in sparkly letters.
Cheerleaders

A cheerleader outfit is a classic Halloween costume sold at every major store. If you were a former cheerleader, you might even bust out an old uniform from the good old days. Take inspiration from Gabrielle Union and her daughter, Kaavia James Union Wade. They twinned as cheerleaders from the fictional Clover team from “Bring It On.”
The Addams Family

There’s no better family that encapsulates the spirit of Halloween than the Addams family. You and your little ones can dress up as any of the grisly family members: debonair Gomez, clever Morticia, morbid Wednesday, or weird Uncle Fester. Tia Mowry and her kids nailed this creepy, yet iconic family!
Venus and Serena Williams

If you are looking to take home the gold medal for the best dressed this Halloween, then dress up as the G.O.A.T. As two of the top ranked tennis players in the world, Venus and Serena both won four Olympic gold medals. You can dress up as the Williams sisters, rocking their iconic beaded braids that they wore early in their career.
Witches

You can never go wrong with a classic witch costume. Don’t forget your signature pointy hat, cape and broom! Take some inspiration from Cardi B. and her daughter Kulture Kiari who nailed their twin witch costumes.
