Today I am going to a Fringe Festival Mystery Bus event where you get dropped at a secret location for a magical night into Sydney’s underbelly, showcasing some of the best arts and culture the inner west has to offer. Tonight’s theme: Circus. With that I have chosen to dress up as a plate twirler….

Day 81: Ghostbusters
My dear friend Kat Urban suggested that I do a Ghostbusters theme, so I waited until it was her birthday to take it on. Now, rather than do a boring ghostbuster suit and vacuum number, I thought it would be funnier to dress as the Stay Puff Marshmallow Man from the first film. I hope you enjoy it Kat –…
Day 80: Captain Planet Day
September 15 is Captain Planet day. Today is the 22nd anniversary of the TV show Captain Planet, my favourite TV show as a child. So I’ve decided to dress as Linka, my favourite planeteer. GO PLANET!

Day 79: Friday
Last week at The Inappropriate Olympics, I promised my friend MartyPantaloons that the coming Friday I would dress up as Rebecca Black…then we butchered her song as we all drunkenly sang it in the park at 10pm at night. And yes, it is possible to butcher a terrible song so long as you are drunk enough. Just…

Day 77: Day of Conception (Russia)
September 12 is celebrated as the Day of Conception for Russia. Day of Conception (also known as Procreation Day) is a Russian Holiday made popular by the region of Ulyanovsk, birthplace of Vladimir Lenin. Couples who then have a child on June 12th are rewarded by the regional government. We have a baby bonus, they have…
Day 76: Emergency Number Day
In 1987 President Reagan proclaimed September 11 Emergency Number Day…which in Australia would be 000 not 911. The first thing I thought to dress up as was a police officer. And I’ve landed somewhere in between that and a stripper that dresses as a police officer. So much so that as I was preparing to take this…
Day 74: Inappropriate
So today my friends and I have organised The Inappropriate Olympics. What are the inappropriate Olympics you ask? They are Olympic style events made inappropriate. An event spawned from from Reindeer Games when she thought she saw a man throw his baby into a pool. So in honour of such an event I asked that all be…
Day 72: National Threatened Species Day
September 7 is National Threatened Species Day in Australia. It has been held annually since 1996 on 7 September in Australia, to commemorate the death of the last officially recorded Thylacine, more commonly known as the Tasmanian Tiger. Which is what I have dressed as today. Photo Credit: Wayne Gretski Tan Cardigan: Cotton On…
