August 21st is Kim Catrall’s 55th birthday. Of all the great characters Kim has played, no-one is more loved than Samantha Jones from Sex and City. Now whether you were a fan of the show or not, you’s have to admit she was the funniest character in the whole series, given classic line such as:…

Day 50: Madonna
August 16 is Madonna’s birthday. In honour of this Diva’s ever-changing commitment to re-invent herself and her style, I have chosen to dress in arguably her most notable look. The cone outfit from The Blonde Ambition tour. This outfit is like a version of that 😉 Photo credit: The Stephinacci Sequence Blonde Wig: Spotlight Black Headset Microphone: Home made (Pipe-cleaner covered in black…
Day 47: International Left Handers Day
August 13 is International Left Handers Day. Yes, I said INTERNATIONAL. So today I have dressed up as the MOST FAMOUS left hander there could possibly be: Ned Flanders. Because as we know, hens love roosters, geese love gander, everyone else loves Ned Flanders….or everyone who counts loves Ned Flanders! Photo Credit: C-Bomb …
Day 43: Whitney Houston

Day 39: International Beer Day

So I’ve decided to dress up as the most famous beer I know – Duff Beer, but more specifically Surly Duff of Simpsons fame. I feel like I should have known this day existed before now. I…
Day 24: Batman
With the release of The Dark Knight Rises this week, it is all but appropriate to have a Batman theme. So I’ve chosen to dress up as my favourite Batman character – Catwoman. Furthermore, I’ve chosen to dress as the best Catwoman of all – Tim Burton’s (ain’t nobody got nothing on Michelle Pfeiffer yo!) The…
Day 21: Marine Day
So Monday was Marine day (say that 20 times fast) and rather than miss out on a great theme, I’ve chosen to do it a couple of days late. It’s a Japanese national holiday celebrated on the third Monday of July, so if this was 2011 I’d be spot on. For such an occasion I…
Day 9: A Night At The Roxbury
Tonight at Teen Spirit the theme is “A Night at the Roxbury”, one of my favourite films from the 90’s. I’ve gone for a mix of the main characters Steve and Doug with the shiny blue shirt, but then mixed in a little bit of 90’s minx with the black mini and standard brown lippy. One last…
