Mary Beth from The Book of Life

Sometimes a tour guide is just a tour guide. But sometimes she’s a little bit more. Sometimes she is Mary Beth, the narrator of the movie The Book of Life with an extra secret hidden up her sleeve.

Mary Beth’s costume is really straightforward, made of great foundational pieces that can be repurposed for other cosplays pretty easily. Best of all it’s comfortable enough to wear through a whole day at a convention. Just don’t go wearing it into any local museums and you should be fine.

All you need are blue heels, a blue cap, a blue blazer, a white skirt, a white shirt, and a white neckerchief. Finish it off with a long red wig and you’re ready to weave your own tale about The Book of Life.

Amity Blight's Grom Outfit from The Owl House

Amity Blight’s Grom Outfit from The Owl House

Amity Blight (voiced by the delightful Mae Whitman) isn’t one of Luz Noceda’s biggest fans. At least not at the start of the series. But by the time Grom rolls around she’s had a change of heart. And when Luz needs her most, Amity is there.

While Grom might sound like Prom, fashion on the Boiling Isles are a little different Rather than a long flowing gown Amity opts for a light purple undershirt with puffed sleeves, a darker purple vest over the top, and a knee-length skirt somewhere in between. Her socks match her shirt and come up to her ankles while her shoes are a little shorter than that and more closely match her vest. However that color is very hard to find and black boots are very close in color.

To finish her look you need accessories in addition to her main outfit. Her vest has a pink teardrop shape which you can recreate using fabric paint. A green wig and pointy ears give you that Boil Isles look while black triangle earrings are her only real accessory. Finally, when all is said and done, you may want a Grom crown all your own.
