A year ago today was the first day of lockdown (and working from home) caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. And what a year it’s been! Stress shopping led to me buying a couple of those awesomely horrible (or horribly awesome) Target dresses that spawned the #targetdresschallenge, and I decided to wear it to highlight all […]

Little Coven on the Prairie
As trends go, I don’t tend to follow them. But the Target dress challenege had me cackling and I managed to snag the red one and blue one in my size. My idea would be to show pandemic life from my perspective, and I enlisted two of my favorite witches to join me in one […]
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 […]

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 […]
Disneybounding Ursula
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. And since I have two Ursula costumes, Disneybounding Ursual just felt right. Disney villains fit my personality, and my eyebrows! Here’s how I put together the outfit, and […]
Costuming Red Carpet Darth Vader
Why wear a basic ball gown on a cruise formal night when I can also be Darth Vader? Especially when on a Halloween cruise! Inspired by Mexico City-based fashion illustrator Guillermo Meraz, I accessorized a stunning black ball gown with the Darth Vader statement necklace I made last year for a dark subtle glam costume […]
Fantasia Inspired Boho Toadstool Mushroom Costume
The latest covid era travel cancellation is a huge disappointment to my mom. I was supposed to take her on a Bahamas cruise in October, but the health and financial risk isn’t worth keeping those travel plans. As an alternative and something for both of us to look forward to, we talked about a secluded […]
