Fusion Marriage Idea of the Year: Gay Royal Wedding

I have to admit I'm pretty sick of hearing about the Royal Wedding, even after the fact. I know this event only happens every once in a blue moon, but there's just so much more interesting things in the world to report on rather than someone's boring wedding. However, what I'm not sick of hearing about though is gay marriage.

So this is me recognizing that the royal wedding is a significant event that happened this year by fusing it with another marriage event of equal or possibly greater importance that also happened this year: the legalization of gay marriage.

As a (fictional) gay man once said "Eat your heart out Kate Middleton!"

The british monarchy may not give us a gay royal wedding for years to come but it doesn't mean that we can't kill two birds with one stone this halloween and class it up as Will & Nate or Kate & Jill.

Maybe someday gay royals.... maybe someday.
Speaking of the royal wedding, another great spinoff idea from that event would the Princess Beatrice Hat Meme.

How could we forget the best part of the wedding?
Or for the fact of the matter... anyone with a Princess Beatrice Hat Meme.

The situation room never looked so good.
My personal favorite
No one can deny that the royal wedding may provide some of the most relevant and classiest costumes of the year. So take advantage of the slew of ideas this lovely union provides (as well as the new gay marriage legislation)!

Who this costume is for:
  • Happy or unhappy (gay) couples alike!
  • Huge fans of the Princess Beatrice Phenomenon
  • Anyone who wants to add a spaghetti monster of a hat to their costume
  • Those looking to class it up this year! 

What you'll need:
  • Some major princely garments
  • A fine lacey white dress
  • Basically a pound of spaghetti wrapped in pink fabric
  • A willing (or unwilling) partner

Rating: Easy

Kawaii Ojiisan Idea of the Year: Sailor Suit Old Man

Can we start off the 2013 Halloween season with this guy? I think we should start off 2013 with this guy. Meet "Sailor Suit Old Man," aka Hideaki Kobayashi aka GrowHair, a cosplay photographer who is famous in Japan (and all over the internet) for dressing up as a school girl every day and rocking it. What do we really know about this guy though? Is he a rock star? I wish. Is he a weird old guy who just happened to be a Tokyo notable? Definitely. Kobayashi is a cosplay photographer who just happens to want to dress like a school girl all the time and lives the dream doing so. Nobody gets the least bit famous simply by being themselves so today I'd like to raise a glass (and this costume tribute) to this guy for being famous for being every bit of himself. If we learn anything from this guy, it's that school girls will flock to you if you have the confidence to put on a cute skirt. Who this costume is for: Anyone who dreams of cross-dressing  Ev...

The Downward Spiral of Syfy Idea of the Year: Sharknado

The Syfy channel may be bordering on the lines of Sci-Fi these days with titles like Sharktopus and Dinocroc vs. Supergator (which are all perfectly adequate costumes by the way) but for some reason nothing can even come close to crossing the line between ridiculous and completely awesome quite like Sharknado .  For those who have never heard of this truly mind-blowing sensation here is the trailer to catch you up to speed: In terms of things taking the internet by storm, Sharknado was definitely one of my favorite things to witness blowing through our lives. The tweets surrounding it might have been just as enjoyable as watching Tara Reid escape this jaw-dropping epidemic or land sharks in tornado form. Which is why, in my deepest belief, a Sharknado costume would be more deserving of a high five than anything else we see come out of this year. Read those tornado costume tutorials online because this one is worth it! Who this costume is for: Fans of Sharktopus ...

The State of Costumes in 2017

2016 was a rough year, to say the least, and the bar is lowered for this year because of it. So what is the point of costumes in today's political climate? How can we even pretend everything is sunshine and rainbows for one day out of the year? How can we want to show our bodies when sexual harassment is encouraged? These are tough things to face but they are very real and not going away. We don't live in a perfect world but we sure as hell can imagine it and that's the power costumes have. Through our clothes and appearance, we gain the power of the image. We can show the world what a black female president looks like or what a transgendered head of church would be like or how a republican who trusts science can run a government. Trust me, neither of them will look like what they try to sell you in those fucking plastic bags at the store. A lot of people might feel that dressing up as these roles might demean them in some way. However, none of these things are out of the...
