This cosplay was a long time coming. My niece’s favorite horror film is The Shining, and she had asked about costuming the Grady twins/sisters for maybe Halloween, Comicpalooza, or DragonCon. Trying to take the easy route, I ordered a set of dresses from an online retailer, and they were terrible! I returned them immediately and […]

Costuming at Comicpalooza 2021

Comicpalooza, Texas’ largest comic book, pop culture, and entertainment convention, happened last month in Downtown Houston. We attended both days, enjoyed local geekery during the weekend, and I proudly welcomes several friends for […]

The end of the pandmic is finally in sight, and Comicpalooza, Texas’ largest comic book, pop culture, and entertainment convention, is happening in 10 days in Downtown Houston. And after such a long hiatus we. are. ready! Well, almost ready, as I’m still working on a new cosplay to wear to the convention. Here’s what […]
Costuming Peli Motto from The Mandalorian
Most women who watch The Mandalorian and cosplay would chose to make a Cara Dune costume, and while that also might be me (I’ll come back to that later), I love love love Peli Motto even more. This spicy space mechanic, played by Amy Sedaris if you squint, repairs ships at the spaceport of Mos […]

Costuming a Shelby Brother from Peaky Blinders
Around this time last year we were marathoning Peaky Blinders and loving every bit of that 1920s-1930s style. And this was around the time we were planning our New Year’s cruise to ring in the 2020’s, and absolutely planning to wear 1920s outfits on the cruise. So I zeroed in on one of Polly Gray’s outfits that […]
Costuming Polly Gray from Peaky Blinders
Around this time last year we were marathoning Peaky Blinders and loving every bit of that 1920s-1930s style. I took a particular fondness to Polly Gray with her unapologetically rough fashion (and attitude) through the years. And this was around the time we were planning our New Year’s cruise to ring in the 2020’s, and […]
Disneybounding Darth Vader
Last year on my second trip to Orlando for RunDisney’s Wine & Dine half marathon and Taste of Epcot International Food & Wine Festival, I Disneybounded for the first time. I Disneybound as Ursula and my beautiful flawless friend, Melissa, Disneybound as Darth Vader. This might look familiar to you if you’re no stranger to the blog, as […]
