While most people are busy getting couple's costumes for themselves and their boyfriend or themed costumes for themselves and their kids, all my costumes are partnered with my baby girl Darcie.
This year we dressed as Little Red & Co. (aka the wolf in grandma's clothes). You can never go wrong with a storybook couple's costume.
Just a tip: Most of this came straight out of the closet. I highly recommend looking through your closet before going out to buy an entire costume. You can often piece together things that you already have and save your money for the essential parts, like fabric for a red cape. Also, for accessories, try to first shop your local Goodwill, Salvation Army, CCA, or DI.

Wolf in Grandma's clothes:
- Glasses- Party City

I thought you might enjoy some photographic evidence of how much Darcie hates Halloween, and how much I get a kick out of it :)
