Day 355: The Smurfs
Today I am taking on the user-suggested theme of The Smurfs, dressing up as the only female Smurf, Smurfette. As a child I LOVED the Smurfs, but a couple of years ago I bought a DVD of the show and when I re-watched it, let me tell you that it does not hold up. Not…
Day 354: Grease
On June 16, 1978, Grease was released. Grease would have to be one of my favourite films of all time, it’s one of those childhood classics that when you re-watch makes you feel nostalgic in a warm and fuzzy way. With this as my theme for today, I have chosen to dress…
Day 353: National Lobster Day

Day 352: 80’s Movie
Today I take on another user-suggested theme – 80’s movie. There were SOOOOOO many good options here – I could do a John Hughes film like Breakfast Club or Pretty in Pink… hang on, nope, already done those. A John Carpenter film like Big Trouble in Little China? Nope, that one too. So then I thought,…

Day 349: Napoleon Dynamite
On June 11, 2004, Napoleon Dynamite was released. The film soon became a cult hit with it’s offbeat humour and awkward characters and moments. With this as my theme, I have decided to dress as the main character, Napoleon Dynamite. (Previously I have dressed up as Rex for the blog) Before I leave you, here are…
Day 348: King Kong

Day 347: Natalie Portman
June 9 is Natalie Portman’s birthday. I was spoilt for choice with characters I could dress up as today, but none more dramatic than Nina as the black swan from Black Swan. The intense make-up took about 40 minutes, but looked amazing and pretty spot on if I do say so myself. Photo credit: Holmes…
