Revlon are holding a truth or dare competition where they are asking people to attempt the Brigitte Bardot winged eye-liner look. So I took it one further and dressed as Brigitte Bardot. Today is Jean Claude Van Damme’s birthday, and if I can’t dress up as him (because tied back hair and a wife-beater will just make me look…

Day 102: Oktoberfest
Today is the last day of Oktoberfest so I have decided to dress as a beer maiden and drink Mango beer. Sometimes life is grand….and if you’re wondering how I got my hair like this, I braided it with a pipe cleaner in it and then bent it into shape. Photo credit: Billy Rubin…
Day 94: Madeline Kahn
September 29 is Madeline Kahn’s birthday. So today I have chosen to dress up as her character Miss White from my favourite movie Clue. And yes, it is based on the board game Cludeo, which sounds like it would be terrible, but it’s hilarious and I’ll love it forever. Photo credit: Billy Rubin Black Dress: ASOS…

Day 81: Ghostbusters
My dear friend Kat Urban suggested that I do a Ghostbusters theme, so I waited until it was her birthday to take it on. Now, rather than do a boring ghostbuster suit and vacuum number, I thought it would be funnier to dress as the Stay Puff Marshmallow Man from the first film. I hope you enjoy it Kat –…
Day 75: Billy Madison
Remember when Adam Sandler was funny? Yeah, me too. Well yesterday was his birthday and in honour of his hilarious past I have chosen today to be a Billy Madison theme. Now rather than dress up like Billy himself, I have opted for my favorite scene in the film: the Steve Buscemi scene. No matter what high…
Day 64: Street Fighter
25 years ago on August 30th, the game Street Fighter was released. This is a game I hold near and dear to my heart as I spent years playing it with my brothers on our Super Nintendo. As I was a girl, of course my favourite character was Chun-Li who I have chosen to dress…
Day 62: Jennifer Coolidge
August 28 is Jennifer Coolidge’s birthday. She was made famous by one particular role – Stifler’s Mom. Interesting fact: the “scotch” in my glass is watered down soy sauce. Also, this theme has made me realise I’m going to make a very good cougar one day…. Photo Credit: Wayne Gretski Black Plunge Dress:…
Day 59: Wizard of Oz
On August 25, 1939 The Wizard of Oz was released. In honour of this timeless classic, I have decided to dress up as Dorothy. Thanks go to Reindeer Games who helped me make the dress. Photo Credit: Holmes White Top: Temp Checkered Dress: Homemade Blue Socks: Big W Red Glitter Ballet Shoes: Wittner
