Halloween, cosplayball and Frostbite

How was your Halloween? What did you wear? These questions are long due for this year's event.

Mine was great! Though I didn't finish my outfit and wore Kiki instead, which was a great choice maybe I'll wear it again next year haha.

Tomorrow the tickets for Frostbite will be available so finger crossed that I can get them for me and L! Since she won't have much time to make a cosplay, we decided on a simple pair that we both like from a series she loves haha. It's Gintama's Kagura and Sougo. If we have time we might do one more from the same series. What is so great about cosplaying from Gintama? Photoshooting. These characters are so crazy and fun that many poses you can be just silly and cool, almost anything works! The photos of L's Kagura cosplay from the summer Desucon just turned out amazing!

As for the cosplayball, now I really wanna do Robin Ciel, but that would get quite expensive. but then again any massive dress that I would like to do for the ball would be expensive... And I'm not 100% sure if I can come to the event. Today I did remember that I have Alois which would work for the ball. I don't really want to reuse Rinoa or Tifa unless I can get a partner since they are such simple outfits.

Princess Zelda was also an option but long blond hair...it just doesn't work for me, only the Skyward Sword might since her face is a bit more round than in the other games. I did get inspired again by Sona when she yesterday competed in the SM competition with her Link Magic armor cosplay from Twilight Princess but I just don't know...

Halloween...AGAIN?!

I keep returning to this blog on Halloweens, haha! Probably because it is the perfect chance to dress up! I feel like last year I knew what I wanted and that fitted the theme which was Kiki. Still haven't photoshooted it and it has been a year, oh my...

And this year I kinda had an idea of what I wanted to make from my list of cosplays but it wasn't really Halloween related... So with a low budget in mind I bought the materials and it's pretty close to done but I'm not sure if it will be ready on time for tomorrow. Even if I do get it done, I'm not sure if I would wear it.

The fabric is just not right and I'm not sure if I feel comfortable wearing it, which is really sad. It doesn't look that well made. And have no idea where to attach the zipper on the skirt so that it would look good. All I can do is hope that when everything is done that it might actually suprise me and look good, keep your thumbs up for me please, I need it.

It looks like a basic Japanese sailor school uniform. I did have a character in mind from Gintama, any guesses?

Parties's Over

After two Halloween parties it's back to studying... So what did I wear?
For the first party I was Bambi/Bambi's girlfriend/mom/whatever just something cute.

As for the second party the theme was movies so there has been one simple outfit that I have wanted to make and it is Kiki from Kiki's Delivery service! As lazy as I am, I started on the costume a couple of hours before the party so it was quite a hassle but turned up okay, still need a bit fixing...

Too bad the weather sucks right now, it's not really possible to take outside autumn pictures since it has started to snow but somedays it melts away but still daylight is short too... Guess I'll need to come up with other places were to photoshoot this cosplay.

Halloween soon and other plans

Wow it's been a while! Sorry guys, been having it real stressful and lots has happened like moving to another city and going to school. You could also say my passion for cosplay almost died but now slowly getting the strenght back together..

So there is a Halloween party coming up and the theme is movies, animated also counts, I won't reveal the costume yet but a little sneak peak and a hint which is Studio Ghibli.

Also by the looks of it, next year I'll be atleast going to Yukicon and Frostbite. I was planning on skipping on one but I got my classmate interested in cosplay so I was thinking that for her first convention Yukicon might be good for that.
One of her first plans was to make Hinata from Naruto Shippuuden, then I got thinking it would be great to cosplay from the same series but it didn't really spark for me to cosplay any character from there.. But she was liked the idea so we started listing other series and ended up with Kuroshitsuji 2 as Alois Trancy and Ciel Phantomhive. She's a bit nervous about sewing but with my guidance I think she will do just fine!

Since I moved, the fabric store here doesn't have as much variety as in Helsinki so I need to order the fabric... Plus a sneak peak at a quick make up test and wig styling which needs the be redone..

Happy late Halloween!

PC-meeting had a halloween/game theme yesterday! I had a lot of fun playing dance central, twister, blazblue and marvel vs capcom!

But I had a real problem to come up with something to wear! So I went as Casual Rinoa Heartilly with angel wings! I think that was pretty cute idea~
