Today is Arnold Schwarzenegger’s 65th birthday. In honour of this great 80’s action hero, I have chosen to dress in a Terminator theme. I can honestly say that I have seen Terminator 2: Judgement Day more times than anyone I know. Mostly because when we used to visit my cousins house when I was little, this was…

Day 32: Amy Winehouse

Day 31: Onesie
So tonight I have been invited to a Wigs and Onesie’s party. And as you may have guessed, rather than owning/wearing a regular onesie, I have one that turns me into a penguin #winning This is possibly the most comfortable costume known to man-kind.

Day 30: London
In celebration of the London Olympics Opening Ceremony tonight I have taken on the theme of London today. I don’t know about you, but when I think of London, the first image to pop into my head is a punk, circa Sex Pistols days. Get it in ya. Photo Credit: Totally Black Wayfarers:…
Day 29: Little Miss Sunshine
In 2006 on this day Little Miss Sunshine was released. It tells the story of a family determined to get their young daughter into the finals of a beauty pageant, so they take a cross-country trip in their VW bus. With that I have chosen to dress up as Olive in one of the best known scenes…
Day 28: Devo Chic
As suggested by Isabel, today I’ve gone the theme “devo chic”. I’m not sure exactly what that entails, but for me, it’s basically an emo. So I present to you, Emo Mary…who looks about 17.

Day 27: Rainy Day
Today’s theme was a costume I had planned for a rainy day. Pun intended. When I think rain, I think wellingtons and when I think wellingtons, I think Paddington Bear.

Day 26: Egypt Revolution Day
July 23rd is the anniversary of the Egyptian Revolution of 1952. So I thought today I’d go for a classic Egyptian queen theme channelling Cleopatra. And let me tell you, that classic hieroglyphics stance is a bitch to position, tres uncomfortable.

Day 25: Exercise
A couple of months back Tom and Alex had a breakfast show dedicated to exercise, if my blog had been around then, I would have dressed like this. I don’t know about you, but whenever I think of an exercise instructor, I think 80’s aerobics instructor, which equals lycra and leotards. Please note, the temperature at the time of…
Day 24: Batman
With the release of The Dark Knight Rises this week, it is all but appropriate to have a Batman theme. So I’ve chosen to dress up as my favourite Batman character – Catwoman. Furthermore, I’ve chosen to dress as the best Catwoman of all – Tim Burton’s (ain’t nobody got nothing on Michelle Pfeiffer yo!) The…
