Lord Voldemort Harry Potter Costume
Continuing on with my creepy, Halloween appropriate costumes, I have today created a Lord Voldemort, He Who Shall Not Be Named, costume. I know that I’ve already done a Harry Potter costume this month with my Bellatrix Le Strange costume, but I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to show you how easily you could create…
Nancy Downs from The Craft Costume
If you were anything like me, and you grew up in the 90’s, then there is about a 95% chance that you loved the film, The Craft. It is honestly one of my favourite films of all time and made me want to be a witch when I was a tween. When I realised that I…
“Ex Wife” Mean Girls Costume
If you’re a fan of Mean Girls then you know that one of the truest to life scenes in the film is when Cady shows up to a Halloween party filled with sexy versions of costumes. In an ode to the fact that not all female costumes must be sexy and revealing *cough* Golem *cough*,…
Theodora turning into the Wicked Witch of the West Costume
While at my friend’s house last week, I spied in her closet an amazing red velvet coat. It is with this red velvet coat that I have been able to create today’s Theodora, from the film Oz, turning into the Wicked Witch of the West costume. I could have just gone Theodora, but I thought…

Bellatrix Lestrange from Harry Potter Costume
I am not a huge fan of my natural curls, but when it comes to creating costumes like this, they do come in handy. Today I have created a Bellatrix Lestrange costume, one of the world villains from the Harry Potter series. To achieve this look, you need a long black dress, crazy curls and…
Lydia Deetz Beetlejuice Costume
About two weeks ago, I put it to Facebook in this post that I would dress up everyday in costume for the month of October if I received 100 likes. Thanks to the support of all of you I reached 100 likes – and then some! So today starts my month-long Halloween costume challenge, and…
Sexy Female Gremlin Costume
Happy Halloween! I thought long and hard about what would be my main event costume for the end of this daily costumed month and I’m glad I went with the Sexy Female Gremlin costume as it has turned out ACE! It was a pretty big effort on the make-up front, but I think I did pulled…
