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…
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…
Alan with Baby from The Hangover Costume
In preparation for my Halloween Party this year I had to help devise a costume for my partner, Frosted Tips. The only problem, he has a beard. While this is not entirely a problem, it does narrow down how authentic your costume can be, unless you chose to dress up as something with a beard….
Marty McFly, Back to the Future, Costume
In the film, Back to the Future Part II, Marty McFly traveled 30 years forward in time, from 1985 to 2015 on the date October 21, which is today! So I could not pass up the opportunity to do a Back to the Future theme, with this Marty McFly costume. Photo credit: Frosted Tips Denim…
Baby Groot from Guardians of the Galaxy Costume
If you saw Guardians of the Galaxy last year then there is about a 90% chance that you fell in love with Groot. And if you loved Groot then there is a 110% chance that you fell in love with Baby Groot dancing at the end. To create this costume, all you need to do…
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…
Theodora turning into the Wicked Witch of the West Costume
While at my friend’s house last week, I spied in her closet an amazing red velvet coat. It is with this red velvet coat that I have been able to create today’s Theodora, from the film Oz, turning into the Wicked Witch of the West costume. I could have just gone Theodora, but I thought…
Inside Out Anger Costume
Today is World Mental Health day. WMHD is a day for global mental health education, awareness and advocacy. I, like many of us, have friends and family who have been greatly affected by mental health issues. This is why I have decided to do a costume today and do my little bit to raise awareness…
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,…
