Stocking in progress vol. 2

Hello from freezing Vaasa:S I have had busy month including long hours at work, school, moving to new apartment and partying. Anyhow I realized it's only two months till Desucon Frostbite: So once again I got the inspiration to start work on my outfit and luckily bought the ticket just in time!! The tickets were sold out in record speed. I'm still trying to get ticket for my friend: ( Hopefully there will be coming few tickets on sale again...refreshing my page like crazy to get one> < 


And here it is <3 Two months: )

Working on the socks I am making those of 60 denim leggins, come to think of it why the hell im making these from so thin fabric. It will probably -20 degrees like last time... gee 
 The paint was mark called Emo...even the color was uneven but i think many layers will do the trick totally will not start sewing anything on these!
I was actually smiling but here I actually look like i'm worried about my red feet. No worries that's my Adiane cosplay wig just trying it on to get the Stocking feeling.
 Looks like done? nahh need to sew it still but it will look like something like this: ) The bracelets I will be doing from soft foam.
 
 My mom had perfect shoes for my cosplay. Too bad they're too sizes too big but I'm more worried walking with these in freezing snow I guess I'll spend my money on taxi again; (
 Here's the wig I ordered I looks nice. I hope it really comes on time so I wont have use Adianes tangled hair. For make up I ordered the nails<3 and fake lashes.
 Still a lot to do.. that freaking sword and the wings which's material is still a mystery..

Stocking progress

Two days ago I finally got the inspiration to start sewing my Stocking outfit. I had already started sewing several outfits for the future cons...but ignoring the one that i'm going to be wearing at the upcoming frostbite..auts. 
Seriously finding a picture material for this cosplay is such a pain in the ass. The animes drawing style is so rough and the most pictures I find are these fanfiction, so yes I might gone little wrong with the colors but doing it how it looks the best...

 Here's a picture I havr looking at the dress model and the colors. I was thinking what is the color next to the blue heard is it silver or platinum? 

 And here's the body..not bad for former curtains 

 Making the hem.

 Little by little starting to look like a dress..

 I had no idea for the colors so I just took these''samples'' to try on if the colors fit.

 Somehow I thinking the whole way, I would never a dress like this It's too baby blue for me. 



And for the finishing touches attaching the ''golden'' satin. I'am afraid I have to paint or rip it off... 


And here's the outcome I have to say it looks better when it's on. But there's still so much to do for this costume. I am just feeling little bit better for not leaving everything for the last week . I already happen to have shoes and the socks should be quite easy to do. The real problem are the wings, they look like they're made from shiny cardboard but I'm actually thinking the feather ones also. Stocking also has a blue and white striped sword,swords? but I really suck with the props so I'll see what I do with that...

Aries in progress

It's over 4 months till Frostbite convention but I have already started working on my Aries outfit. I am not even sure which outfit i'll wear for second day, Officer Jenny or Aries plus I'm planning to crosplay Sebastian from Kuroshitsuji. Too hard choices, there should be more cons... But at least I have plenty of time to plan and sew those, something to do when it's rainy and cold outside;___;


 I got inspired to start sewing Aries outfit 'cos I found this amazing Aries like fabric. The texture is super soft and warm that's why I was thinking if I could wear it in Frostbite. At fabric store the seller was interested in what I'm going create from the fabric I was like.......pillow covers!: S  
(she didn't see the part when I was in front of a mirror looking how it looks on me)

Cutting the model...I just used my old dress to cut it.
It's sooo soft and it really looks like Aries outfits material
Pretty much finished dress but it still some lines.  

The horns I twisted from iron yarn I found this best solution. 


The wig arrived! This time I so early I don't want experience the horror of wig arriving two days after the con ...So I'm playing it safe. I really love this wig (could wear it normally: D) I'ts so hard to find Aries like wig I got to say...

And here's the outcome I look serious but that's how Aries is :3 The horns still have no color, all my paint I left at my hometown too lazy to buy new ones. And oh yeah the curls of these wig curve wrong way but I don't want curve those   I'm too afraid I'll destroy the wig. I hope people don't mind this;___;

 There are still some parts I need to sew but in all Aries outfit is really simple. In my opinion the simpler the outfit is the more precise the details has to be! Till next timee: )

Cosplay plans

 I know its going to be a super long time till my next con. But I've already started working on my Desucon Frostbite outfits : -D I could have gone to Yamacon held in next month but I don't think I'll made it: ( 
I really had no special plans for my frostbite cosplay but my friend Miki really wanted to do Panty and Stocking cosplay. To be honest I really don't know a thing about the series but the characters seem interesting...: ) This outfit I'm really looking forward to wear: D I hope we won't freeze up wearing these at frostbite x P

 I will start working on my Stocking outfit( on the right) 

 
 These are pretty inspiring photos>  <

 
I found a two pieces of dreadful curtains from flea market but they're just perfect for my dress costing me 2€ Well blue fabric needs little more color.



For the second day of Frosbite I wear something simple, so I come up with doing Fruits basket cosplay. This is my all time favourite manga and I've wanted to do some of the characters. I was really thinking between Momiji and Hanajima and came up Hana-chan. I really like her character and I really want to sew that school dress<3 plus I already have wig for this: D

This is my next plan for the second day. I was actually planning to make this for last frostbite but I run out of time. I like the idea making the winter outfit of Boa Hancock for Frostbite. There is no much picture material but should be easy to sew. 

UPDATE 
I suddenly got an idea do to some really classic cosplay. So I came up with Officer Jenny from Pokemon! This side character has really simple outfit but the main thing is I get to start working on a UNIFORM : D

For summer I'll definitely make Fairy Tail Aries. I fell in love with this character its so cute: ) The wig is going to bit of problem but I came up with a idea and I've always wanted to get a light pink wig: D I actually made the horns already: D

These are cosplays I'll definitely do. But I also have plans doing Kuroshitsuji Sebastian or Grell again.
