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 […]

Running Costumes: Captain Hook and Mr. Smee
This time last year we were tasting our way through Disney for Taste of Epcot International Food & Wine Festival after running RunDisney’s Wine & Dine half marathon that morning. Part of the fun of running these races through the parks is all the costumes seen along the way; my own, people I pass, and people who pass […]
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 […]
Grand Pannier: What Not to Do
Have you ever screwed up a sewing project so horribly that you want to burn it, and the house down? Just me? I made every mistake possible while attempting my 18th century grand pannier, because although I have pocket hoops/side panniers for my sack-back gown or robe à la française, I wanted options. I’ve no business giving any advise […]
Costuming Brianna from Outlander: Season 4 (Patchwork Shirt)
I usually costume Claire from Outlander, and I have outfits from the first 3 seasons. But in season 4, a costume worn by Brianna (Bree) caught my eye, and I started working on it before the first episode even aired. I made Brianna’s patchwork shirt that she wore while hunting with Jaime in episode 409, […]
Costuming Afternoon Tea Darth Vader
Since I was a little girl, a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, Darth Vader was one of my favorite characters. Now that I’m a grown costuming woman with moderate sewing skills, I can’t help but recreate this iconic and beloved character in my own way. Preparing for Costume College with my […]
