With Halloween right around the corner, here are some super easy and simple costume ideas for duos and what you’ll need to recreate them!

1. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

What you’ll need:

-Green shorts

-Green top

-Different colored bandanas (to wrap around your heads and wrists)

2. Dorothy and Glinda

This works sooooo well as a duo costume but also definitely has the potential to be a perfect group costume (just add in the other Wizard of Oz characters)!
