In case you haven't heard, Grease is the word! Of course, no one knows this better than Ree Drummond, who counts the 1978 musical rom-com as one of her favorite movies of all time. If you love the film just as much as Ree does, then you'll probably be just as hopelessly devoted to these electrifying Grease Halloween costumes.
There are plenty of great store-bought picks here, including a few that are officially licensed for a truly authentic look. If homemade Halloween costumes are your thing, though, then you have to check out the DIY inspiration for "Good Sandy," "Bad Sandy," a beauty school dropout, and more iconic Grease characters. (The first two would make a great best friend Halloween costume, don't you think?) And when it comes to easy Halloween costumes for couples, it doesn't get much simpler than donning cool all-black outfits and going as high school sweethearts Danny and Sandy.
Are you planning a group Halloween costume with your family this year? We've got costumes for every member of your crew, from babies and toddlers, to grown-ups, or even your pups. If you're dressing up with your friends, a T-Birds or Pink Ladies group costume would be peachy keen, jellybean. After all, you go together like...well, you know how the song goes!
