Actually getting Ryan to dress up is my fave

Last weekend our friends Jon and Natalia threw a Halloween party complete with a homemade donut bar with loads of toppings. Isn’t that a great idea? We had to dress up for the occasion so I convinced Ryan to be Tim Gunn. The only logical costume for me was Heidi Klum but there’s no easy way to pull her off without some surgical procedure. All Ryan had to do was say designers and everybody chuckled then I enter the room with a pregnant belly and bleach blonde wig and people assume I’m a lady of the night. I tried.

Happy Halloween!

    Genius! I might have to steal this idea at some point because my husband does a killer Tim Gunn impression. Make it work!

    Brilliant! I hope he spent the evening using words like caucus, mitigate, circuitous and Sturm und Drang!

    Did you go around saying Auf Wiedersen? That would help! You guys totally pulled it off, good job! And way to go Ryan on being a good sport.

    I am so jealous I didn't think of this! Honestly, this is super smart. But I got my bf in drag this year, so I don't know how much more I can ask for.

    I had to re-read the part about the donut bar twice. How can I get one of those installed in my house?

    You guys look amazing. In the spirt of Project Runway, "The whole thing looks like faux bois." – Tim Gunn

    Happy Halloween!

    i sorta didn't want Ryan to leave considering that is probably the closest I'll even get to Tim Gunn in real life.
