Halloween is my favorite time of year! I love to get creative with costumes and really wow everyone. Making your own costume makes you unique and not look like the typical “party city” costume. It’s always awkward moment when someone buys the same typical Halloween costume as you and you are in competition on who wore … Read more
My boyfriend and I met on the Disney College Program so we wanted to be something Disney related but nothing too cheesy. The bra top was made by just buying a cheap bra from Ross ($3.99) and some shells, beads and glitter from Jo Ann’s (About $10). I lined the bra with glitter and then … Read more
Growing up Ariel, the Little Mermaid, was by far my favorite Disney princess. I remember dressing up as her for at least four halloweens in a row. Since I’m now eighteen, trick or treating and all that fun is kind of out of the question, unless I take my little sisters around. But just because … Read more
I spent couple of Halloweens in the Stated before but I never bothered to dress up. This year I decided to put my creative side to use and make a Halloween costume from scratch!

This costume is 100% made by me. It took me about a week or so to do. The skirt I used a metallic spandex. Then with tulle I did the no-sew tutu method on 2 elastic bands. I then hand sewed those to the bottom of the skirt. After that I draped the green organza … Read more
Well, the costume was simple and quick to make but super effective. Everyone clocked straight away that we had come as mermaids, whether it be Ariel or not. I just purchased myself a hi-lo skirt from eBay, which was about £5 so rather cheap. I didn\’t want to wear a bra on top as I … Read more
I bought a white seashell bra, a green ruffle bottom angled skirt, and after several stores a bright red wig. The wig was the hardest part to find since it needed to be long, have the right kind of bangs, and be the perfect shade of red! The wig was also the most expensive part … Read more
Wanting to bring back a little of our childhood as my best friend and I were about to celebrate our 20th Halloween, we knew from the start we had to get Disney involved. Of course little girls love dressing up as Disney princesses from a young age but WHO SAYS there’s an age limit when … Read more
This sail dress was my very first time making/sewing my own cosplay dress (no patterns were used.) I believe the only reason why I was able to finish this dress successfully is because, there was no rules to follow in order to make this dress. After all it’s only a big sheet of ripped sail … Read more
