On February 4, 2004, Facebook was founded. Like it or not, Facebook has changed the way that people interact with their social circles, in honour of that fundamental social interaction I have decided to dress up as my Facebook page. Please note that all, but the cover photo and a few images, is an exact replica of…

Day 215: Pac Man
Today I take on the user suggestion of Pac Man from Kylie3036. I’ve gone for the main yellow character which I’ve made from putting crete paper over a hula hoop and attaching a string to it so that it can sit around my neck. This is the cheapest and easiest way to make a Pac Man…
Day 214: Nanny McPhee
On January 27, 2006 Nanny McPhee was released. Rather fitting with the current gloomy, rainy, London-esque weather I have dressed up as Nanny McPhee, warts and all. It was almost too easy achieving this look with only the tiniest of makeup. Photo credit: Holmes Black Lace Top: Tres Beau (My Mother’s) Black Long Skirt: Hotline (My Mother’s) Black…
Day 213: Australia Day
January 26 is Australia Day, as I am Australian I toiled a lot about who or what I would dress up as today.
