Today I have taken on the terrible-on-purpose film Sharknado, dressing as a tornado of sharks. This is a great example of using household items such as plastic bags to create a fun and inventive costume.

Morticia Addams from The Addams Family Costume
Today I have taken on another Addams family member with this costume of Morticia Addams (previously I have done Cousin It and Wednesday Addams). It’s a bit warm in Melbourne today (32 degrees!) so please excuse any unsavoury sweat beads. Photo credit: Frosted Tips Long black wig: Ebay Black top: Glassons (with added black paper…
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. *…
Sloth from The Goonies Costume
Growing up, The Goonies was one of my favourite films, and while I have already covered The Goonies with a previous costume of Data, I had yet to dress up as Sloth, whose relationship with Chunk was one of the most endearing sub-plots of the film.

Mounted Deer Head Costume
A while back I saw an image of this amazing face paint that made you a deer, and I’ve been keeping it in my back-pocket until I could think of something more to do with this than just a deer costume, so I’ve opted to create a mounted deer head costume that is a bit…
Jigsaw from Saw Costume
I feel as if I haven’t had enough ‘scary’ costumes for the build up to Halloween, so that’s why today I’ve attempted Jigsaw from Saw. Someone I’ve come off creepy, but quite as real and creepy as Jigsaw, it’s probably because I don’t have eyes as black as death. My bad. Photo credit: Frosted Tips…
Krumm from Ahh!!! Real Monsters Costume
Today I have decided to do a throwback to a childhood favourite – Ahh!!! Real Monsters – with my Krumm costume. It’s a pretty funny costume in real life, so if you end up doing it for a party, it will be high-fives all round fo’ sure! Photo credit: Window to Happiness Skin-colour top: Forever…
