Happy halloween ヽ༼ ಠ益ಠ ༽ﾉ

I usually don't celebrate Halloween, but this year I made an exception (^・ω・^ ) 

First I made a plain schooluniform, pictures below are wip pictures. There's still bow, bias tape and BLOOD missing XD:

 I tried the costume with wig and i thought it looked soo adorable (=^-ω-^=) Yet still I ended up wearing the costume without the wig, because I was too afraid that the wig would get messy ;_____;  The wig is actually for my upcoming luka's anti the ∞ holic outfit *･゜ﾟ･*☆

Then the blood happened XD I have never added fake blood on clothing so I was quite happy with the results ^___^ Though my heart broke when I had to spill the blood on my pretty school uniform TT___TT ... Luckily I saved the patterns so I'm probably making new school uniform with no blood (* >ω<)

How do you like it? Did the blood ruin the whole outfit or did it make it better?

Saturday

I fixed my Yuzuki Yukari outfit for this con and wore it on saturday. I like the costume very much, but it didn't really get any attention on the convention and only couple people came to ask for a picture. Though I think that's 'cause yuzuki isn't a well known character (,,#ﾟДﾟ) But anyhow I had a great time and I'll put yuzuki's outfit on in the future as well

PARTYBUNNY X__D

Sunday

I had to go to the convention by train and I didn't want to carry anything big or heavy outfits (such as Asuna and her sword or Sandpaly Luka's dress), so I decided to wear my Kakashi costume on Sunday. I'm always amazed how much attention Kakashi gets. It was my first cosplay and I have wore it in several con's yet still people want to have a picture of kakashi. But Kakashi is one of the coolest characters ever, so no wonder people are excited to see him

Overall this was awesome convention and with awesome people and one of the most fun cons i have ever been to ^___^

PS. I'm working on some yuzuki yukari tutorials and I hope I can finish them soon 

ღ New Project - Chi ღ

Since I first saw chi from chobits I wanted to cosplay her. Chi's outfits were absolutely amazing and I always loved how cute she was. But the reason I yet haven't cosplay her is her looks. I didn't think I was cute enough to cosplay as chi, because in my opinion her face is so cute, so innocent and so flawless. Though I still don't think I'm pretty enough, but I happened to fall for one of her dress...

Isn't it gorgeous?

 So... yellow is one of my favorite color, I like warm colors such as red, yellow and orange, and that is one reason why I liked this outfit a lot. I also pretty much adore historical dresses  (ღ˘⌣˘ღ)

I also decided not to hurry with this outfit and make it as perfect as possible. Meaning I have no specific convention in mind where I should wear it. I hope to be able to finish this in an year, but it doesn't really matter how long does it take ^___^ I just make it whenever I feel like it and if the costume turns out good I might take a part in some cosplaycompetition... we'll see about that  (o⌒．⌒o)

And now some other news: There was animecon... and I wore yuzuki there... but the stockings kept falling off and so did the belt, so I have no pictures of her... I'm going to fix the outfit a little and after that I can show some pictures ^___^

Desucon 2013

Friday:

I didn't cosplay... I was too tired to put a costume on, because I was still making costumes 4 in the fridaymorning... I always end up doing costumes in the last minuteヽ(￣д￣;)ノ 

Saturday:

I was cosplaying Asuna from Sword art online. It was so fun cosplaying her ♡＾▽＾♡ and we managed to take good pictures of the costume :3 so happyy  

Sunday:

I was SnJ Kakashi.. once again XDD

Graduation dress o (◡‿◡✿)

I finally graduated from high school and of course I had to make my own graduation dress (^_^;) I usually prefer warm colors such as red or yellow over cold colors, but this time I decided to make the dress green. Or more specifically dip dyed dress from white/creme to darkgreen.

 Before I went buying the fabrics for the dress I already knew the fabric I imagined didn't exist, at least not in the fabric stores near me, so I had no choice but to dye the fabric myself. I was really worried about the dyeing fabric because I had never dyed before and the fabric I was suppose to dye was polyester chiffon, so I wasn't sure if the color would be dark enough.

 for dying I used tropical green and olive green from Dylon

As I had expected the colors didn't come out as dark as I wanted. tropical green was okay, but I would've wanted olive green to be darker. Much darker. But I can't blame the colors for that, they were easy to use and and did their job. It was because of the polyester. But I didn't manage to find any seethrough fabrics that would have been 100% cotton, or at least 50% cotton... ARGH

Anyways I continued making the dress with those fairylike fabrics o (◡‿◡✿) 

I don't have many pictures of the progress because I tend to get so into sewing that I forget to take them :D so here's the pictures of the dress when it is almost finished. I later added white lacy ribbon under the lightgreen ribbon.

And finally pictures of me wearing my graduation dress in my graduations Ｏ(≧▽≦)Ｏ (for some reason it looks white in the pictures, but it's clearly light green in person XD)

I have been a bit busy so Asuna has had to wait a little. But luckily I wasn't able to put asuna aside completely which means that I have made some progress with her  (⌒▽⌒)☆

First asuna's wig. I adjust the braids a little and now it looks million times better ^___^

Then I made the armbands and gloves:

Making pattern for the armband

Armbands still missing the golden lines.. and blogger won't let me put a picture where  the golden lines are -_____-

 how I see my gloves  (*´・ｖ・)

And how my bf see my gloves... XD
(those little creatures are from moomin and they are called Hattivatti)

I have almost finished stockings but I forgot to take pictures of them (〃￣ω￣〃ゞ silly me...

And shoes! I like how the shoes look like and I'm anxiously waiting to finish them, BUT.... I still haven't found grey ribbon so I'll have to wait. Put here are pictures of the shoes so far:

Enough with asuna. I'm also making kirito's Knight of the blood oath costume for my bf and the cloak is almost finished ♥～(‘▽^人) Here take a look

I NEED TO IRON THIS SO BAD XDD

Asuna and wig ♥（ﾉ´∀`）

I haven't really made any progress. I shortened the skirt but otherwise I've done nothing. Mainly the reason is the lack of materials. I went various local stores to buy buckle and grey ribbon, But I didn't find what I was looking for. (,,#ﾟДﾟ)  so.. I'm unable to continue Asuna.. 

Luckily I'm going to the bigger city weekend and hopefully I find all the things I need there. After the following weekend I'm also starting to make Kirito's Knight of the blood oath costume, so more WIP's coming ☆

✓Vest
✓skirt
✓wig 

I got Asunas wig I ordered few weeks ago and I'm in love with it! My favorite wig so far ♥♥♥  think the color is perfect for Asuna and the quality of the wig is excellent. It doesn't shine too much but is still very smooth and realistic.

I need to adjust braids a little UPUPUP

AAAH I want my hair to be that long (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻ XDD 

I also tested some make up, I think I may have to do another test. I'm not completely happy with how the eyes look like. I also want to buy orange contactlenses for this cosplay, but because of my poor eyesight I might not be able to find suitable ones ;____;
