I hope you all had a MARY Christmas yesterday and I know you thought that you were all done with gifts for the year, but here is one last one – my Beauty and the Beast duel costume! My work Christmas party was themed ‘Duets’ this year, so I decided to create two costumes….sort of….

Furiosa, Mad Max: Fury Road, Costume
One of the best female characters to be seen in film this year would have to be Furiosa from Mad Max: Fury Road, played by Charlize Theron. Furiosa was tough, Furiosa was skillful, Furiosa KICKED ASS. So how could I not only create a costume to portray such a strong, female character, but also end…
Head On A Plate Costume
Re-using the cardboard head-hole-base that I made for my Zordon Power Rangers costume, I thought it may be creepy to create a head for dinner costume. Once again, it’s dodge, but I’m ok with that.

Dr Zoidberg from Futurama Costume
One week left! On ebay I found this face mask that was so perfect for a Dr Zoidberg Costume that I couldn’t help but buy it and go on the hunt to find the rest of the outfit. Eventually I was able to source the white lab coat from my partners school and the scrubs…
Ewok, from Star Wars, Costume
This week the final trailer for the new Star Wars film came out and the internet went wild. I thought then that it might be prudent that I take on another star wars costume for the blog (I’ve previously done Princess Leia and Hans Solo In Carbonite) so I went with the cutest characters created…
Lord Voldemort Harry Potter Costume
Continuing on with my creepy, Halloween appropriate costumes, I have today created a Lord Voldemort, He Who Shall Not Be Named, costume. I know that I’ve already done a Harry Potter costume this month with my Bellatrix Le Strange costume, but I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to show you how easily you could create…
Netflix and Chill Pun Costume
If you’ve been living under a rock for the last year, then you may think that “Netflix and chill” is when you invite someone over to watch Netflix and chill out with each other, and it can be, but more often than not it’s the 21st century version of inviting someone up for a “night…
Nancy Downs from The Craft Costume
If you were anything like me, and you grew up in the 90’s, then there is about a 95% chance that you loved the film, The Craft. It is honestly one of my favourite films of all time and made me want to be a witch when I was a tween. When I realised that I…
Bride of Frankenstein Costume
Bride of Frankenstein is a classic Halloween costume for the ages. The whole outfit comes together with the hairstyle and make-up. If you are “blessed” with curly hair, then you have a great base for the Bride of Frankenstein hairstyle. First step is to brush it, and then tease the HELL out of it. Next,…
Patsy Stone from Absolutely Fabulous Costume
If you were like me and loved the English comedy, Absolutely Fabulous, then there is about a 99.9% chance that Patsy was your favourite. She was the bitch that you loved, no matter how terrible she was to Saffy and everybody in the world other than Eddy. So if you take this on as a…
