Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love Couple Costume

My boyfriend and I really wanted an awesome and adorable Halloween costume. We wanted to be something easy but also something that would make us happy and other people happy. Since my boyfriend has the long blonde hair, we went with Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love couple costume.

It wasn’t hard to put this look together considering we used stuff from our closet. My boyfriend paired Kurt’s signature flannel with some matching Vans and some plain blue jeans.

Courtney’s look was a bit harder. I considered to just wear a dress slip with some heels (since that is what she opted to wear) but, since it was cold and I’m only 17, I went with more so of a grunge look. It was more appropriate anyway.I paired a leather jacket with some black combat boots and black leggings. I also curled my hair and tried to make my makeup as smudge and messy as possible. I would put on the red lipstick and the smear my hand across my face and get it all over my cheek (she never really had a put together look.) I smudged my eyeliner and made my mascara run a little bit.

The guitar was optional. My boyfriends mom thought we needed a prop for our photo but we didn’t take it out with us.

All in all, everyone loved our costume. It was a big hit and it was inexpensive.
