Ella - The World According To A Disney Doll

Happy Star Wars Day - May The 4th Be With You !!

 If you hadn't already guessed, it's Star Wars day today.  And as our good friend Ollie's such a HUGE fan of the film saga (And we already had plans together for a Star Wars movie marathon later anyway), Biker-boy had somehow convinced my daft husband that it would be a good idea for us to dress up for the occasion too ! ... Oooh-ecckkk !!  Ummmmm, o--kay !!

As much as Rai and I groaned about the suggestion to begin with, we decided to play along and support our fella's interest all the same.  With the ONE condition that neither of us wanted to wear the Leia gold bikini this time !! ... I think the lad's were a tad disappointed there, but in the end they realised it was still a victory that we had agreed so easily in the first place.

So, with the help for a few of the Star Wars display dolls, the four of us got to work dressing up as our favourite characters from the film series ..... Ollie couldn't wait to don the Jedi garb once again, supposedly this time he's Anakin Skywalker from Episode 2.  Seeing as Rai know's that her fella's always had a THING for Leia though, she decided to dress up as the princess leading lady herself, in the gown from the end of Episode 4.  Rocky's fave has always been Han Solo of course, however seeing as there's no Han doll to borrow an outfit from in Hollys collection, we had to get a little more creative and assemble his get-up from bits and bobs we thought looked sorta right and in the spirit of the character.  Dont they all look FAB though ?!

As for me, I opted for Padme.  Her wardrobe throughout the first 3 films is amazing, and you all know what a passion I have for clothes too.  So the signature Queen Amidala look from Episode 1 seemed to fit the bill in this instance.  I bet you hardly recognised me with the headress and everything as well though, but it IS me none the less ;).

Anyway ... Once we were all ready, it was decided that we should have a little photoshoot to mark the occasion.  And thanks to our talented photographer-pal, Elise, these stunning piccys were the result too ! ... Pretty cool, huh ?!

Oh well though, I suppose I had better get going now, because Gwen and Marshall will be popping by to join us after lunch, and the guys are hoping to start our movie marathon of the entire Star Wars saga on time too.  So that we can fit all the movies in before midnight ... Hmmmm, 6 films all in a row, lucky us, hey.  But even though am not the biggest Star Wars fan in the world, I must admit that all this cosplay stuff is rather fun none the less.

Happy Star Wars Day Everyone - May The 4th Be With You !! ;)
