GUYS. THIS IS THE POST I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR ALL MONTH (well…actually since I ordered our costumes back in August). It is my styling of Harley Quinn and Joker couple costume!! We knew immediately this is what we were going to be this Halloween after seeing Suicide Squad (comic book nerds say what you will. I LOVED suicide squad. And Harley is my spirit animal). We knew it would be an insanely popular Halloween costume this year but we didn’t care because in 10 years (heck, tomorrow) when I look back to how much fun we had dressing up and taking these pictures, I won’t care. So take that mainstream media! ANYWHO. If you are looking for a semi-simple couples costume idea with makeup + costume tips, you are in the right place. Keep reading, good people of the internet!

Harley Quinn and Joker Couple Costume

Step One: Get your Harley on.

I <3 Harley. She is sassy, smart, and pretty much the biggest BA super villain woman. I mean, who doesn’t want to be her this year?! Her costume is fun, easy to replicate and will definitely turn some heads.

**DISCLAIMER** I know this is not an exact replica of the Harley Quinn costume from the movie. I prefer to keep myself on the modest side and bootie shorts and fish nets just didn’t do it for me. It doesn’t bother me in the slightest if you choose to do the exact version, I still think I rocked the look! 🙂

For Harley’s makeup look, I used Buxom’s custom eye palette with the pink and blue shades I had in there (for the exact colors check out this post). I got my eyeshadow brush wet and just went to town on my eyes. I then topped it with a winged liner and drew in the heart and ROTTEN tattoo on my face. Smudge up some red lipstick and you are gold. The best part about this look is it is supposed to be messy so go crazy.

I finished the looked with a spray of blue + pink temporary hair dye from the Halloween store and voila! Harley Quinn: Suicide Squad QUEEN.

Step Two: Ask me how I got these scars.

Guys. For real. I have the world’s coolest husband. Not ONLY does he humor me when I say “let’s get dressed up today and go take pictures in an alley” but he also lets me put eyeliner and lipstick on him so he looks the part. I love this man.

BUT BACK TO JOKER: This is easy. Put on some pale makeup (I put a VERY thin layer of white cream foundation on Adam), smudged up some black eyeliner, wrote “damaged” on his forehead and topped it off with red lipstick. BAM. Joker.

Don’t forget to spray on some green hair dye to really make it look authentic.

Step Three: Find an empty alley and beg your photographer to pretty please come take pictures of your Halloween costumes if you promise to bring her candy.

Michelle. You the REAL MVP. She makes us look more beautiful than we really are I swear. But actually she was the one who found this alley and it was perfect. We laughed, posed and then went back home and hung out in our costumes like the social butterflies we are. 🙂

There you have it, friends. My version of Harley Quinn and Joker couple costume!! We had SO MUCH FUN getting dressed up and taking these pictures. Halloween is my favorite, guys. I am SURE you can tell that I don’t mess around when it comes to this holiday but…it is less than a week away and I cannot even deal. I am struggling with the fact that there won’t be any trick or treaters at our door this year 🙁

BUT ON THE BRIGHT SIDE. Adam and I just bought tickets for the local Haunted Zip Line this weekend and I could not be more thrilled. I’ll let you know how it goes.

Thanks for stopping by, as always, and I hope to see you back soon!

  1. TAYLOR! I’m all heart eye emoji right now. Seriously this is amazing. I love that you got the hubby to do it with you. And you still rocked it with the pants. I personally couldn’t wear the shorts either lol

  2. This is the best!! and your hubby is way cooler than mine who refuses to dress up at all costs haha! I love your interpretation as well because I couldn’t pull off the shorts and fishnets so this is an awesome alternative

  3. WOW! I absolutely love it. You two look great and I LOVE your take on it. This could be easily brought into the office. The make up on you both are incredible and I am LOVING the purple velvet blazer. I am a major joker fan (easily my favourite fictional character) so I love seeing everyone’s take in both the movies, comics, and costumes! Y’all are seriously rocking it!! xx Shannon

  4. Alright – enough being so super cutey in all your Halloween makeup and outfits! I dont even know what I’m going to be. I know… pathetic on my part! haha… Love how chic you are for Halloween!!! Inspiring me, girl!

  5. I am not sure who’s costume I like the best. I loved your photos and then as I kept looking I began to love the Joker costume. They are both so great!

  6. You and Joker look awesome. Harley Quinn is one of my favorite characters from the cartoon versions I’ve seen. I haven’t seen Suicide Squad yet but I love your modest version of Harley! This year my sons, hubby and I are dressing as Hah, Leia, Chewy, Poe and Kylo but I bet I could convince my Superhubby to do the villains of Batman one year! 🙂

  7. I haven’t seen the movie or seen the cartoon version. I am totally not up to date! But you always do a good job on the make-up

  8. You guys seriously rocked those costumes! I absolutely LOVED Suicide Squad – so much so that we went and saw it twice. I think that they did an amazing job and the acting was incredible.

  9. So I haven’t seen Suicide Squad yet, buy girl these costumes are amazing!! My favorite couples costume that husband and I was zombie bride and groom the Halloween before our wedding 🙂

    1. Thanks Kristi!!! They are professional. One of my dear friends Michelle is an INCREDIBLE wedding/portrait photographer 🙂 Check her out here: michelleandlogan.com 🙂

  10. Good for you all for dressing up. You did a great job with the make up. I love my daughters costume this year…she is a girl version of Captain America…it is so fun!

  11. These are such fun outfits, seen so many going at Harley and the Joker this year. Styled these costumes so well and done the makeup/tattoos really good to!

  12. AHHMAZING!!! WOW, you two look GREAT!
    Last year my oldest daughter was the Joker, my son was Batman, and my youngest daughter was Harley Quinn (not the Suicide Squad version). I hate to admit this, but I haven’t started their costumes for this year.
    xo

  13. Ahhhhh I am obsessed with this!! You two made the most perfect Harley and Joker!! I absolutely love your interpretation of her costume – I would most definitely rock this more modest version. Your makeup (and his) is SO point. Kudos to your husband for going along with the shoot and getting nicely in character! These photos turned out incredible! Hope you have the most amazing Halloween! Thanks for all your fun Halloween posts and tutorials! ^^

  14. These are so fun! We are strictly princesses and super mario bros this year, but I think as the kids get older we will definitely branch out more.

  15. Omg how cute did these come out?!?! Great job!! I bet y’all were a total hit of any costume parties you went to
