Mad for Mad Men

Thank you to my friend Sheena at La Bonne Femme who turned me onto this fun time waster. At the Mad Men web site you can "Mad Man Yourself ". I immediately went to the web page and spent a ridiculous amount of time picking my hair and choosing my outfit. Then I took it a step further and copied my cartoon Mad Men in person.
Have fun Mad Mening yourself!

Oct 31: Halloween: Marie Antionette




As promised here is my Halloween costume this year. Marie Antoinette with a bit of a neck issue but still looking as chic as ever. If you attended A Fanciful Twists Halloween party this year, you will recognize my costume.
Happy Halloween everyone!

Oct 30: Stephen King's Carrie


This costume is so easy to put together but will be so memorable, just don't forget to add the bucket of blood...

Oct 29: Roller Derby Grrrl

Roller Derby is back and I say hell ya! What other chance do we get to wear gold panties over black fishnets with roller skates. Remember that if you're a roller derby girl this Halloween, part of the costume is the attitude.

Oct 28: Lady GaGa

For Lady GaGa, everyday is Halloween. Everyday is an opportunity to dress more wild than the day before. But for the rest of us, Halloween is our only acceptable day to go Lady GaGa crazy!

Oct 27: The Tramp

Charlie Chaplin started his entertainment career at age 5 when he jumped on stage to sing a song when his mother was booed off, and he never looked back. He kept the world laughing through WWI and the Great Depression. Plus his stuff holds up. His films are just as funny today.

Oct 26: Sookie

Acording to the online Urban Dictionary a "Fangbanger" is:
"Fangbanger -A human who enjoys having have sex with and allows vampires to drink their blood.
Ex: Gran asked what a fangbanger was and Sookie explained that it is a human who allows vampires to drink their blood and enjoys having sex with them, sometimes for money."

Between True Blood and Twlight vampires are again all the rage. I read Interview With A Vampire by Anne Rice in high school and then the not-so-true-to-the-book film came out with Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise. Vampires on TV and films are always sexy. I prefer Jim Carey in Once Bitten. That was a great high school vampire movie. Or is it just me? But today's Halloween costume is Sookie Stackhouse, a fangbanger.
