You're bonded for life, after all.
By Aly Walansky — Written on Oct 23, 2019
Whether you are six, sixteen, or sixty, there’s no bond like the one you have with your sister. You've been through everything together — fights, breakups with boyfriends, family reunions with your crazy distant uncle. And even if you don't like each other all the time, there's an unbreakable bond you share.
October 31st lets you show off that bond and create great Halloween costumes. They can be fun or spooky, creative or adorable, and the best part is that this can be done at any age. From DIY to set costumes, whatever feels fun to you and your sister, and fits your relationship, will create memories for years to come. And these Halloween costumes for sisters will do just that.
