On January 21 2011 NBC announced that they had ordered a pilot of Wonder Woman, after shooting a pilot and much speculation NBC announced in May that it would not be picking the project up for a series. This seems to happen a lot with the Wonder Woman franchise *cough* Joss Whedon movie. In the hopes that Wonder…

Day 207: Underworld
Underworld Awakening was released on January 19 last year. For some reason when I was doing my planning for the week I had this down as a release date of January 20 (today). A day late or not, Underworld is my theme for today and I have decided to dress up as Kate Beckinsale’s character Selene. Photo…
Day 204: Jim Carrey
January 17 is Jim Carrey’s birthday so today I bring you one of my favourite characters of his – Ace Ventura: Pet Detective. More than that, I have decided to re-create Ace in character from the first film where he pretends to be mentally insane. The hardest bit was trying to re-create his hairstyle with…
Day 203: John Carpenter
January 16 is John Carpenter’s birthday. As a child I grew up watching (and re-watching) John Carpenter films, namely Big Trouble in Little China. When my brothers and I would have to hang up the washing, at the end when the basket was empty, one of us would ALWAYS put the basket on top of…
Day 198: Pretty In Pink
Today I thought I would take on a user suggested theme. Belinda has suggested that I take on Pretty in Pink, so I have decided to dress as the main character Andie (Molly Ringwald). As you can see from the main image, I have attempted to re-create the look as seen in one of the…
Day 194: The Little Mermaid
For the final day of Disney week I have decided to end off with a bang and take on my favourite Disney film of all time – The Little Mermaid. Many people have requested separate to Disney week that I dress as Ariel, so essentially I have hit two birds with one stone. Photo Credit:…
Day 192: 101 Dalmations
To even out Disney Week some more, today I bring you a villain – Cruella de Vil from 101 Dalmatians. It took me YEARS to figure out her name meant cruel devil, but once I did, it was like MIND.BLOWN. Please note this is my natural curly hair that I only had to tease the tiniest of bits to turn…
Day 191: Pocahontas
To even out the racial stereotyping of Disney princess representation on Theme Me, I bring you to you today, Pocahontas. Please view while listening to this – Disney you have the best songs!

Day 190: Tinkerbell
When I went to Disneyland, all over every store was Tinkerbell. And I mean EVERYWHERE. Personally I didn’t get it, but then again, I’m not a 5 year old girl anymore (no matter how much I love fairy bread). To me she was a minor character from Peter Pan and Hook, but to anyone under…
Day 189: The Incredibles
Next up in the week of Disney themes I bring you The Incredibles, taking on the costume of Violet Parr, the daughter of Bob and Helen Parr (Mr. Incredible and Elastigirl). Thanks go to @martypantaloons for the lend of his red morph suit that made this costume possible. Photo credit: Holmes Red Morph Suit: Borrowed from @martypantaloons…
