Thrift Store Cosplay Day 14

Day 14: Aladdin Aladdin is one of my all time favorite Disney movies. It’s neck and neck with Lion King for me. I must have watched it over 1,000 times as a kid and still continue to watch it as an adult (though since the death of Robin Williams it’s been much harder to watch…

Thrift Store Cosplay Day 13

Day 13: Luigi from Super Mario Brothers This one ended up being more of an homage than I originally intended. The first piece of my Luigi cosplay I found was the green overalls. I got excited cause I thought to myself “Look, green overalls…just like Luigi wears!” In my defense I haven’t owned a Nintendo…

Thrift Store Cosplay Day 11 #MyFirstHanks

Day 11: Forrest Gump I think Forrest Gump was my very first Tom Hanks movie. Or at least the one I remember seeing first. They say you never forget your first Hanks…well, they should say that! Because Tom is a national treasure. He’s one of those actors that is beloved by all. And if you…

Thrift Store Cosplay Day 10

Day 10: Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet from Pride and Prejudice When I was in the 10th grade, I was supposed to read Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, but I totally didn’t. I bought the cliff notes and actually…didn’t even read those. I think I got an F…I definitely deserved an F! But worse than…

Thrift Store Cosplay Day 9

Day 9: Fairy Godmother from Disney’s Cinderella (1950) Everyone’s always giving all the love to the Disney Princesses, ok…I know…me included. But what about the supporting characters who make the Princesses’ stories happen. Like…for example…Cinderella’s Fairy Godmother. We don’t know much about her, but we know that without her Cinderella would be up a creek…

Thrift Store Cosplay Day 8

Day 8: Imperator Furiosa from Mad Max: Fury Road It usually takes a while for a character to really cement themselves as a favorite on my coveted list of favorites. There has to be many viewings and lots of You Tube montage videos must be watched. It’s a whole process. But I gotta tell you,…

Thrift Store Cosplay Day 7

Day 7: Rapunzel from Tangled Today’s thrift store cosplay is a minimalist version of Disney’s Rapunzel. It’s more of a bounding, if you will. For those of you who have never heard of Disney bounding…look it up. It’s a simple way of representing your favorite characters at work, at Disney…basically anywhere you are, and still…

Thrift Store Cosplay Day 6

Day 6: Amazon from Themyscira Ok, I could have gone the Wonder Woman route or even done a faithful adaptation of Antiope or Hippolyta, but since I truly believe that I belong among the Amazons of Themyscira, I did my own take on it. I don’t want to have someone else’s look when I finally…
