Just finished this fun, fringe, upcycled sweater just in time to see Wicked. Love that the ticket taker took one look at me from across the room, grinned from ear to ear, and greeted us with a wink and said, “I know what movie you’re going to.”

My favorite look from the latest Frankenstein movie had to be the wedding dress, of course. It was just such a beautifully tragic visual.

I adored Elizabeth’s wedding sleeves; such a stunning homage to the story’s iconic cinematic history while still feeling organic & unique. So I took an old pair of crocheted gloves & some discount holiday ribbon and got to wrapping.

Absolutely loved the costumes and visuals of the latest Frankenstein film! It was such a gorgeous feast for the eyes!

Had so much fun raiding my closet to come up with these looks.

Saw others doing it, so decided to give it a go. So pleased with how he turned out and just in time for the theater release.

So proud of my state! Such a beautiful day for democracy.

Gearing up for the big day. Can’t wait to see everyone out there! Just please remember: it’s flu & covid season and large crowds are hotspots for transmission.

Please do what you can to protect yourself & others.

I did my best. I tried an embarrassing amount of times to get a good shot that showed off how it sparkles in real life, but this is the best I could do…

Love the idea of dressing up for Oct 18th & Luffy feels uniquely - if a little ironically - apropos. Can’t wait to set out. Here’s to seeing an awe-inspiring sea of people, all marching for freedom, justice, & the promise of a better future!

It tickles me too much make my rebellious-as-hell, fight-the-power Straw Hat jolly roger sparkly as fvck!

It’s gonna break my heart to ruin it and start all over again.

Take a breath and trust the process, girl!

Silly, little #silksong #hornet cosplay that I did while my husband played the game. & while I made silly, little bug sounds back at the screen.

I am now battle-ready! Cannot wait to lose my voice at the #kpopdemonhunters theatre sing-a-long. I apologize in advance because I’m gonna be loud and I’m gonna ugly cry.

Had a great time at Panda Fest Twin Cities. Long lines, bit pricey, but tasty food & fun!

So happy I got to bring a piece of my current obsession home with me. I love him!

Finished my Monarch of the Mimics costume just in time! Such a fun last-minute project; there were so many teeth.

Did I pick a #brennanleemulligan quote just to hear him say he loves my monster? Hush, let me have this.

It was an amazing event. I think, due to everything going on, many of us were afraid no one would show up. But Minnesota showed up! It was so inspiring.

Just about a month until the convention, so of course I needed to start my obligatory last-minute, unplanned costume. Hey, finished my Mimic Belt, so we’re on our way. Just need to do the Mimic Girl dress. Let’s go!

Finished my Occult Magical Girl: Abra Macabre! So fun to finally see it in all her sparkly glory. Masquerade balls need to come back so I can have more reasons to wear this.

Finished my Reign of Blood Dress! So. Much. Tulle. I made sure to overbuy so I would have enough. Used all of it. I am so floofy. But, ya know, in a regal kinda way.

All these Blood & Bone accessories definitely make me feel like some Grimm Fairytale princess about to, for better or worse, meet her fate.

Sometimes I step back and look at what I do from an outside perspective and creep myself out. Oh well. Sometimes you gotta make a mess before you can create cosplay.

Gauntlet at the Garden inspired Constitution Save with savory caprese cannolis! And a purely decorative, non-cannoli-related half-eaten everything bagel & lemon yogurt for… reasons.

Thank you! My mind is still reeling; it doesn’t feel real

Right?! It’s absolutely unacceptable that I’m expected to work for the rest of the day.

My Box of Doom cosplay was on Dimension20?! How?! Wha?! OMG! THE Rick Perry noticed me! I’m done

I loved watching the cursed girls from #Dimension20 #titantakedown. I know they weren’t an official team but I think they could take down Big Z and the God Squad! They may be part animal, but they’re all party, baby!
