For the third day of Halloween week I bring you a favourite: Freddy Krueger from A Nightmare on Elm Street. As I child I was terrified of Freddy Krueger. I watched the film when I was 5 and my brothers constantly taunted me by dressing up as him and chasing me around the house. Tonight…

Day 94: Madeline Kahn
September 29 is Madeline Kahn’s birthday. So today I have chosen to dress up as her character Miss White from my favourite movie Clue. And yes, it is based on the board game Cludeo, which sounds like it would be terrible, but it’s hilarious and I’ll love it forever. Photo credit: Billy Rubin Black Dress: ASOS…
Day 84: Pirate

Day 67: Father’s Day
With today being Father’s Day, I thought it appropriate to dress as a famous dad. So I’ve picked one of the most notorious both on screen as well as off – Bill Cosby. Not only did he star in his own sitcom as the father of the Huxtable family for 8 seasons, but also released a book on parenthood…
Day 58: Dinosaur
I’ve been asked a lot of questions about this challenge since I starting this blog. Amongst them: ‘What happens if you get sick?’. If you will learn ANYTHING about me at all throughout the duration of this year, it’s that I like stupid/cool things. For my birthday I asked for costumed onesie pajamas, and I got this….
Day 56: Pussy Riot
August 22nd is Russian Flag Day, which made me think, what’s big in Russia right now? Light bulb – Pussy Riot – Oh yeah, this blog just got topical. For anyone who doesn’t know, Pussy Riot is a Russian feminist punk band that staged a performance at a Moscow church tying the Russian Orthodox Church politically to Russian President Vladimir…
Day 53: World Humanitarian Day
August 19 is World Humanitarian Day. When I found this out, the first thing I thought of was the “Human Being” mascot from the TV show Community. This has got to be hands down the creepiest costume I have ever, or will ever, create. Hide yo’ kids. Photo Credit: Holmes White Suit: Chupa Chups suit…
Day 52: Andy Samberg
August 18th is Andy Samberg’s birthday. Samberg is most notably known for the hit song “Jizz in my pants” and his work on Saturday Night Live. Some of his best work was done with Justin Timberlake, which is why I have chosen to dress ala “Dick in a box” theme today. To all the fellas out there…
Day 51: C-Bomb
So it’s come to this, personal jokes. Today is the last day of a dear friend C-Bomb at work. You may know C-Bomb from such photo credits as this blog. As a dedication to this friendship and the great years spent working with her, our mutual workmate Save Cheerleader thought it would be funny if…
Day 50: Madonna
August 16 is Madonna’s birthday. In honour of this Diva’s ever-changing commitment to re-invent herself and her style, I have chosen to dress in arguably her most notable look. The cone outfit from The Blonde Ambition tour. This outfit is like a version of that 😉 Photo credit: The Stephinacci Sequence Blonde Wig: Spotlight Black Headset Microphone: Home made (Pipe-cleaner covered in black…
