Day 135: Inventor’s Day

November 9 is Inventor’s Day in certain countries. So I thought, who is my favourite inventor character that I could dress up as? I flashed back to my childhood, to the movie The Goonies, and boom I thought: Data. That guy had everything in that jacket, so I have tried my best to recreate the chattering…

Day 131: Guy Fawkes Day

November 5 is Guy Fawkes Day. Guy Fawkes was a member of a group of provincial English Catholics who planned the failed Gunpowder Plot of 1605. His face is made most famous in mask form in V for Vendetta, which is what I have chosen to dress as today.   Photo credit: Holmes   Black Bob…

Day 129: Zombie

So I lied. I have one more day of Halloween themes left in me. I have two Halloween parties I’m going to tonight and I’ve decided to dress up as a zombie bride. The dress was quite the find in Vinnie’s, only $20 and the rips it had only add to the costume overall.  …

Day 126: Halloween

Happy Halloween! Today we see my week of Halloween costumes come to an end – I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! I wanted to end it in a bang so I have dress up as that scene in Alien when the alien comes out of the guys stomach. Please note that…

Day 125: Scream

For the sixth day of Halloween week I have decided to take on my favourite modern horror film: Scream. With this I have dressed up as Drew Barrymore’s character from the opening sequence. I have tried to incorporate the entire sequence into my outfit: ala the phone and the blood (later).This scene is hands down…

Day 124: Friday the 13th

I would have watched my first horror film at age 5, from memory it was A Nightmare on Elm Street. So this goes to show that there was not a lot I was shielded from as a child…except for Friday the 13th. Of all the  horror films Friday the 13th was the only series that my brothers…

Day 122: A Nightmare on Elm Street

For the third day of Halloween week I bring you a favourite: Freddy Krueger from A Nightmare on Elm Street. As I child I was terrified of Freddy Krueger. I watched the film when I was 5 and my brothers constantly taunted me by dressing up as him and chasing me around the house. Tonight…

Day 121: Horror Film Cliche

On the second day of Halloween week, this themed blog gave to thee: Horror Film Cliche. In every horror film there is a 20 minute chase sequence where one poor pretty girl gets the world thrown at her – hit by a car, stabbed, shot, hit, you name it – and just as she is…
