A couple of weekends ago I was invited to a ‘retirement’ themed party where you were supposed to dress as your future alter ego. I went as a glamour nanna. You know the type; about 20% stylish, 20% comfort and 60% crazy. Please find me at future art gallery openings and thrift shops. Photo credit:…

World Tutu Day
So today I just found out that February 2nd is World Tutu Day! As an avid lover of tutu’s, how could I not dress us for the occasion! World Tutu Day is as an annual worldwide fundraising event in support of ballet education. Funds raised in Australia will help The Australian Ballet School to maximise its accessibility…
Bonnie and Clyde Shot Up Costumes
For my second Halloween party this year, my boyfriend and I decided to dress up as Bonnie and Clyde, but all shot up, to make it more Halloween appropriate. We based our Bonnie and Clyde costumes off of the 1967 Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway film. Photo credit: Frosted Tips Bonnie Beige beret: Dangerfield Beige…
Sexy Female Gremlin Costume
Happy Halloween! I thought long and hard about what would be my main event costume for the end of this daily costumed month and I’m glad I went with the Sexy Female Gremlin costume as it has turned out ACE! It was a pretty big effort on the make-up front, but I think I did pulled…
Adam Maitland from Beetlejuice Costume
I loved Beetlejuice as a kid! So today I have taken on Adam Maitland from Beetlejuice where they have their monster/scary stretchy faces. The mask was made with just folded paper on top of a cap, so I’m pretty stoked with how well it turned out on such a dodgy concept. Photo credit: Noodle Noo…
Rosie the Robot from The Jetsons Costume

But now that I have finally put it together I’m really happy with it! Photo credit: Noodle Noo Silver robot head: Homemade from…
Annabelle Doll Costume

Dancing Twin Girls Emoji Costume
Today’s costume is based on a theme I think we will see a lot this year at Halloween parties – emoji’s. With this I have chosen to recreate the dancing/twin girls emoji as a costume.

Pusheen the Cat Costume (with Scooter)
Today I have dressed as my favourite Facebook sticker character – Pusheen! While there were a few emoticons to choose from with Pusheen, one of my favourites is when she is on her scooter, which is the one I have chosen to re-create.

Yoko Ono Costume
Today I have dressed as young Yoko Ono, aka her era with John Lennon in the 60’s/70’s. This costume is easy so long as you have a big white floppy hat and circular glasses.
