Who’s excited about Star Wars Day? I know I am! Star Wars Day is May 4 and I’m looking forward to filling the day with as much Star Wars fun as humanly possible. If you’re on the same track, I’ve got some great ideas on how you can make the most of Star Wars Day 2018.

If you've ever cosplayed or worked hard to make a screen accurate costume, then you have been in this situation before. You've worked really hard to make sure your movie costume is perfect in every way. You've spent hours researching the costume, looking for pictures with different angles, figured out how to make the different pieces, and spent weeks putting it all together. Now it's time for the finishing piece: your prop weapon. Oh no! All you can find are expensive replicas you'll have to spend hundreds of dollars on! If you don't want to spend that money, you're left with neon orange and white toy costume guns. Those aren't screen accurate at all! So what do you do? In the cosplay world, I'm known as MagicalBlackGirl Cosplay, and I constantly get questions on how I made my Han Solo Blaster. Lucky for you, I have put together an exclusive tutorial for Pure Costumes to teach you an easy way to turn a toy weapon into a more screen accurate version without breaking the bank.

Earlier this year after the teaser trailer for "The Last Jedi" was released, we posted a few fan theories about the upcoming movie. Now that the full trailer has dropped and the release date is almost here, there are dozens of new theories making their way across the internet! Here are a few of my favorite.

A few days ago, the trailer for Star Wars: The Last Jedi was finally released. The amazing trailer and the fact that Star Wars Day is coming up on May 4th got me thinking about what we have in store for in December when the movie is slated to be released. So while deep diving through the interwebs, I came across some fun fan theories that I thought were pretty interesting. Today I’m going to share with you some of my favorites. WARNING! The following may contain SPOILERS!

This week, the Star Wars Celebration is coming to Anaheim, CA! Lucky for us SoCal folk, that means that the biggest Star Wars fan convention will be right in our backyard. If this is the first time you’re hearing about this event, the Star Wars Celebration is the official Star Wars fan convention.

With just a week until The Force Awakens bulldozes its way into theaters and creates screaming banshees out of all of us, the anticipation level of planet Earth’s dominant humanoid species is at a level unseen since Episode I back in ’99. Despite what I’ve seen thus far, I can’t help but wonder: The Phantom Menace, or not The Phantom Menace - that is the question.

It's a good year to be a Star Wars fan. A new Star Wars game called Star Wars Battlefront II is currently in its beta stage, and the third trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens was recently released on YouTube. We're all excited for the latest film in the franchise, but while we wait for the premiere in December, let's take a look back at some of the most significant planets that have played a part in the biggest adventure from a galaxy far, far away.

Fantastic beasts and terrifying monsters have always been a part of the Star Wars universe often as another hurdle in our heroes’ journey. Whether on an asteroid or on a snowy planet, the heroes always end up facing some kind of creature while on an adventure. With plenty of creatures featured in Star Wars, you can probably make a whole website dedicated for this topic.

If you spent any time on the internet last weekend, it was hard to miss all the hoopla surrounding the huge Star Wars fan convention held in Anaheim, CA. With the newest episode in the Star Wars saga to be released later this year and May the Fourth approaching, this was probably one of the most exciting Star Wars Celebration events ever!

Looking to join the Dark Side this May the Fourth? Here’s a quick and easy costume that you can put together. Emperor Palpatine is undoubtedly the most influential person in the entire galaxy. He was able to manipulate the Senate into giving him complete power and also turned a young Anakin Skywalker into one of the most feared beings ever to walk the galaxy.

The big day is getting closer. Have you decided what you will wear to your Star Wars Day celebration? If you need some inspiration, we’ve got some fun group costume ideas for you and the family on today’s blog. Whether you’ve joined the dark side or are fighting with the rebel alliance, you’ll love these great Star Wars costume ideas!

Well, we’re jumping on board and previewing the new Star Wars costumes that will be available on our website soon.
