Showtime Synergy

I have told a couple of friends that i have every intention of being Jem for Halloween. I have never really gone all out crazy on a costume and this may be the excitment over wearing silver glitter and a hot pink skirt but i am jazzed about this idea. Yes Halloween is MONTHS away but one can never start the hunt for large star earrings and two toned pink hair too early.

My inspiration:


Notice the wicked eyeshadow design How Awesome!



Thank God Wet N' Wild hasnt gone out of business. Only fitting to use the ult 80s make-up to achieve that perfect 80s look.

The costume is going to be the hard part obv
First which look to recreate??
The Classic Pink dress

or go for one of the more obscure Jem doll outfits
Flash N Sizzle

A leeetle too mermaid for me

not exactly the doll i want to look like.


Rock N Curl Jem
Lots of Hot Pink lots of Bows and just a dash of purple to tie it all together. Sorry Barbie Need Not Apply.

Glitter N Gold Jem


Truthfully not even a contender (white tights for shits sake but her hair does remind me of lita ford in Kiss Me deadly Video)






There are a couple of DEDICATED Jem fans out there and i want to thank them for reminding me just how truly outrageous Jem was and is. It also brought back other fond memories of Kimmer (jems bandmate/ little sister) and the other band members (Aja, Danse, Shana who had to leave to follow her dream of being a fashion designer) the mansion full of foster kids called the starlight kids (nothing says sidekick quite like a foster kid -just ask Mr. T)



Now i only wonder what poor guy i can con into being Rio??


I am sure my destiny has a purple-haired band manager in love with my alter ego in my near future. ;)

I really hope that this Halloween will Get Jem out of my system or else my first daughter is in serious danger of being called Jerrica.
