Beyoncé and Jay Z are the pinnacle of hip-hop royalty, there's no doubt about it. Who wouldn’t want to live like this couple for a day? Well, on Halloween, you can! Some fans may be worried about how to match such an outfit. While it may be epic, at first glance it seems like a lot of money would have gone into dressing up as a couple. Well, don't be afraid. Wear Beyoncé and Jay Z couple costumes for Halloween with less expensive items.
While in real life, the couple does have pretty expensive tastes, that certainly doesn't mean you have to go out and buy exact replicas of the outfits they wear. Heck, you don’t even have to follow their chosen brand. There are plenty of people dressing up as Bay and Jay without emptying their wallets, and luckily, they've posted the proof on social media.
Now, it might take some time to assemble Beyoncé and Jay Z's costumes. After all, that couple had never been one to be meticulous about details. But once you do, the results are really worth it. Check out some of their looks below and see for yourself.

The outfit is undoubtedly one of the couple's most iconic looks of late, appearing at every show on their On The Run tour. No wonder many couples have tried to emulate this style.
As the couple above prove, achieving this look for less isn't as daunting as it seems.
For Bey's outfit, you'll want to start by picking up a black bodysuit, like this one on Amazon ($10-$25).
Next, you'll want to address the fishnet aspect of the costume. Try a black long-sleeve fishnet shirt for your size, like this one on Etsy ($22).
But wait, there are more fishing nets! Invest in a pair of black fishnet socks, like these ones from ModCloth ($12.99).
If you want to really get into character, check out this makeup artist's tutorial to copy Bey's beauty routine for this outfit, including that infamous fishnet mask!
To achieve Bey's luscious locks, opt for a long, dirty blonde wavy wig, like this one on Amazon ($12.81).
For Jay's casual-meets-classic look, opt for a black blazer, like this one on Amazon ($19.94).
Under your blazer (unbuttoned, of course), wear a black-and-white American flag T-shirt, preferably one with the stripes extending all the way to the bottom of the fabric, like this one on Etsy ($24.95).
A simple pair of black slacks, like these ones on Amazon ($17.97-$41.64), should complete Jay's basic look. Throw on an old pair of black sunglasses and a fake gold chain and you're good to go!
Finally, don't forget to buy two fake microphones, like this one on Amazon ($4.89 each).

Can you think of a sweeter moment between these two than this moment at the VMAs? After Bey's whirlwind performance, she was honored with the Video Vanguard Award and her beloved husband came on stage to support her. Divorce rumors? What divorce rumors?
For this outfit, you most likely won't find a bedazzled one-piece or leotard like Beyoncé's, but what you can do is pick up a sheer blue one-piece, like this one on Amazon ($13.50) and then add a few extras.
Or lots of extras! Choose from a variety of fabric-friendly stick-on gems, like these from JoAnn Fabrics ($6.49, $3.99, and $10.99 respectively).
For Jay, buy a simple black hat, like this one on Amazon ($12.99).
Next up is a white T-shirt, like this one from Amazon ($0.37-$17.99). Of course, or one you already have.
Pair a solid color T-shirt with a black blazer, like the one from the first outfit. Like Jay, don't forget to wear a fake gold chain.

You know it when Queen Bey herself releases Beyoncé and Jay Z's Halloween costumes, just like she did with the two kids, who modeled the pair while visiting the Mona Lisa Couple styling. While you might not have Bey's official approval, that doesn't mean you can't make it look #flawless. Even if you're not a baby.
For Bey's look, opt for a simple floppy black hat, like this one on Amazon ($16.29).
Underneath the hat, you'll wear a blonde braided wig, like this one on Amazon ($7.69).
For a patriotic look, opt for a black T-shirt with an American flag on it, like this one on Etsy ($20).
If you want to appreciate Jay's laid-back look, you can purchase a Yankees hat ($34.99) at the team gift shop.
Wrap up his look with a gray trench coat, like this one on Etsy ($24).
Happy hip shopping!
