90’s Hip Hop Costume

I was invited to a 90’s Hip Hop Hens Party, so I thought I would go all out with this Salt N Pepa inspired 90’s outfit. The best bit is that I scored this sweet jacket for $15 and it’s SILK! It’s literally the first silk item I own and it’s covered in a crazy…

Hocus Pocus Winifred Sanderson Costume

Amongst my love of all things 90’s is the film Hocus Pocus. I will be projecting three films in my backyard during my Halloween party this Saturday: Nightmare on Elm Street, The Craft and Hocus Pocus. I think that about sums up my love of this film. So with that as my inspiration I have…

Zordon from The Power Rangers Costume

If you were a child of the 90’s like me, then there is a 90% chance that you also LOVED The Power Rangers. A couple of months back a friend asked if I could do a Power Rangers theme, so thought it would be perfect to have it as one of my Halloween month costumes….

Helga Pataki from Hey Arnold Costume

The other week I was in Kmart and happened upon a $5 pink singlet dress. For a while I had been looking to create a Helga Pataki costume and now I could finally do it and on the cheap! Then I saw that the other day it was the 19th anniversary of Hey Arnold! airing…

Garth from Wayne’s World Costume

Today I take on Garth from Wayne’s World for my costume. This is another easy but effective one that is great for Halloween! Just remember to do the Garth walk and throw these classic quotes around all night: * Benjamin is nobody’s friend. If Benjamin were an ice cream flavour, he’d be pralines and dick. *…

Day 297: Craig David

Today is ANOTHER friends birthday, who has requested the theme of Craig David. So with this ghetto request I have decided to go for the classic Craig David look ala the album cover of his debut album, Born To Do It. Happy Birthday Ganga!   Photo credit: Billy Rubin   Black Beanie: Sportsgirl White T-Shirt: Nike (My…

Day 256: Buffy the Vampire Slayer

On March 10 1997, Joss Whedon’s Buffy the Vampire Slayer debuted on the WB. Ever since I was a young girl, I have loved Buffy. It originally started when I was 7 and my family rented the Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie with Kristy Swanson and Luke Perry. That day I watched it 5 times on repeat. Fast forward…

Day 217: Insane Answering Machine Message Day

January 30 is Insane Answering Machine Message Day. As soon as I found that out, I instantly knew who I was going to dress up as: George Costanza. Why? In episode 15 of the 8th season, The Susie, George creates an answering machine message modeled on the song The Greatest American Hero so that he may screen his…

Day 216: Oprah

January 29 is Oprah Winfrey’s birthday. Oprah has had many looks over the years, but I have decided to try my hand at thin Oprah from the early 90’s. Specifically when she brought in a trailer of fat to show how much weight she had lost on her show.   Photo credit: Billy Rubin  …

Day 134: Brownstone

Today is my dear friend Simon’s birthday. Simon is a lover of all 90’s music, none more than the 90’s one-hit-wonder. I still remember when “If You Love Me” by Brownstone came on when I was at a party of his, it was then that I knew we were friends for life. So I have…
