First picture

Hello lovelies,

I got tagged on a really random picture from my Hungary cosplay and thought, I'd share it.

Picture by Iggy

It's not good at all but I like the light. >D
Oh well, I will wait for another Halloween group including Zen and Lena and then I'll do some more picture.

As for now, I am really bored at work but still have 3 hours to go. :)

dead tired

Hello lovelies,
it's been one month since I started working 5-3 times a week plus doing and finishing three cosplays in that month. I am just so dead tired but I can't stop. In three weeks time is Dokomi in Düsseldorf/Germany again and there are two more cosplays I have to do in this time.
I never told you, what I made for last Sunday.....

I made the Hungary Hetaween outfit! I think this is super cute. I don't have the pictures yet but I don't think the photographer really understood what I meant. Nevertheless, I'm not going to judge him without seeing the pictures first.

Now for the Dokomi, I have to special Cosplays in mind.
For Saturday it will be Atelier Meruru

 

And on Sunday Liechtenstein in her Halloween fairy outfit from 2010? 2011? I'm not sure...But I think it's so cute!

I already started with the first pattern and that was nervewrecking! But I will manage <3 p="">

so...what happened?

Hello lovelies,

I did finish all my cosplays for Animuc with 5h or less sleep. Normally I sleep 7-10h! You can definitely imagine my irratebility the days before the con.
Animuc this year was again cold and it also rained a bit on Saturday. This dropped my mood a lot and before it went crashing into the abyss, my friends and I decided to go....shopping :D!
And I bought new shoes. From Tally Weijl. Plus, they were on sale.
On Sunday my mood was even worse but I was totally in character. Ha, I just hate the cold. And as we came back from Munich, friends phoned us and told us that the weather in Austria was so nice and sunny.
Yep, this post is definitely a rant post. Sorry.
Ah, and no pictures apart from really crappy ones made with my mobile phone camera. We decided to do seperate shootings in Vienna because of the bad weather.

Onto something better now. I bought the special eyeshadow set from MAC and new shoes. (again.)

 I fell in love with the colours. This was worth every cent. And I spent a lot of cents on that. A lot.

And tadah~. New shoes number 2. I saw them on a fleamarket the other day with my sister but they were size 39 (I wear 36.) Then my sister found them on a Austrian website, on sale for 4€ and in my size. And now they are mine.

A year ago I got myself a set of hot curlers but rarely use them. I think this is the reason why I took pictures of myself with curlers in my hair.

Although you can't really see them, my hair has the same colour. And no, I'm not naked XD
I really need to dye them soon.
Sorry for this really weird english and entry, I am so tired....

2 Cosplays in 2 Weeks

Hello lovelies,

the title says everything. I AM IN STRESS and on the brink of going insane.
But it's my fault anyway! Two planned cosplays were cancelled even though I started both of them already and therefore hat to change all of my plans. And I had the time to gather everything and already start 4 weeks before the con. The con, Animuc in Munich, will be this comin weekend and I only started sewing last Monday. OTL
On Saturday I'll do Ruruca/Rulka from Crimson Spell for a friend of mine. I already tailored this cosplay once but threw it away because I thought it was so bad.

And on Sunday I'll do the female version of Norway. Yes, Hetalia always has a place on conventions |D.

There are is no official version yet for fem!Norway but I will stick to something similar to that.
So...
And my progress until today is this:

The front part is still missing, the skirt is too long and I have to sew the hem but apart from that...yep. Looks good already. That's already an "old" picture of the progress because the cuffs are already on too!
(And I am wondering what's on TV...probably The IT crowd |D)
Parts missing: barret

It's harder with ruruca/rulka because I only started today with the trousers and even though they have pockets, I'm not finished with them yet. Jep, a cosplay with pockets. This is the premier!
Parts missing: The coat, the bolero

uff, and work all week from 9.30am-6pm mo+tue and wed+thu from 4pm to 10pm. Wish me luck please because we already drive to munich on friday...! Yikes.

New stuff

Hello lovelies,

It's been weeks since my last post about my shopping spree and a lot of new things are already cluttering my room.
I bought a pink bag via yfmart and love it. My gf thinks this is the ugliest bag she had ever seen but out tastes are really different |D.

Last weekend I went to a special event and therefore bought new shoes and a new dress :).

 

The dress is from hellbuny plus it was on sale! From 58 to 36 euros *___*!

 

Plus a close up from my make-up. Next time I have to outline my eyebrows even more. And my bangs look a bit weird too but nevermind.

I enjoy shopping in h&M's childrenssection because they really have cute things, like this dress. It's 158 and fit's perfectly! Oh and the dressing doll is new too :D!

And this dress with a white bolero, a creme belt with flowers and white bodyline jewelry was yesterday's cod! Sorry for the crappy quality

And this was my make-up.

The white flower at the back of my head is from my bodyline order which arrived on Friday!

2x of socks, 2x fake lashes, 1 box of fake nails, 2x pink flowers, 2x white flower, 1x strawberry bunny hairband

Plus a black tie and a pink frilly bag.

uff, long post. I hope I didn't forget anything :)
Have a nice week!

24h lolita sewing project

Hello lovelies,

I started a new project called "24h Lolita sewing project" in which I will try to sew a full Lolita outfit in only 24h. And not only a plain one, but one with a loooot of frills and bows.

Day 1
just did the patterns and worked 2h on them

 Yey for paper patterns!

 And this is how my dress should look like. I took three things from three different magazines and combined them. Not on the list is a skirt for underneath.

 Day 2

This is what I did and how day two ended:
1. Nearly finished the top and I love the frills.
2. Top skirt part
3. Under Skirt part
4. Round sleave thingy
5. Sleaves, sewed together already

It took me 6 1/2 h. I think I progress well.
8 1/2 from 24h and 11 1/2h more to go ;D

oh and I know that the pattern is not a typical Lolita one. But I want to try something new. Maybe it works out well, maybe it doesn't.

It has so many beautiful details and looks even better worn.

And here some of the pretty details:

Taobao order and in general, shopping again

Hello lovelies,

I probably mentioned, a few posts ago, that I ordered something on Taobao via a shopping assistant. I received the order already weeks ago and the service was wonderful, shipping was fast and I am really happy with the stuff I got. All in all 5/5.

I ordered a disney purse and a liz lilsa lucky pack which included 7 items! I have no individual pictures but be assured, they are wonderful. I also fell in love with my disney purse at once. Time to throw away my old one from innocent world. We had a wonderful time together.

Did I already mention that I am a total shopping addict? I have a new job since February and it got even worse because I earn more (and automatically have the feeling I can order more.)
Well, this is what I got from ebay

The shoes are a bit too big because I ordered EU37 instead of my usual size EU36, just to be sure. But nevermind, they fit perfectly with padding.

A new bodyline and yfmart order is on it's way to my place too.
I'm sorry, this blog turned out to be shopping instead of a cosplay/lolita/gyaru blog. OTL

wip adekan

Hello lovelies,
I'm not sure if I'll manage to finish this cosplay for the book fair this weekend but I am still trying.
If I do not succeed then I'll just wear it for the next con :)

Those are my weapons sprayed with colour. They really have a wonderful and deep red. Now I have to colour the top, bottom and the tiny horns in gold.

That's a sleeve, but it's the first try because I made a mistake. The top part (=the smaller part) should not have corners. It's rounder and therefore I did it again and was very much pleased with the second attempt. No pictures yet :3

I got a lot of new items again, but these will be in my next post!

shoppinng spree part 3456789

Hello lovelies,

I have a new job and earn about 80-90% more than in my last. I think this is the reason why my shopping spree started again. I made a huge bodyline order yesterday and also a fairly huge amount on Amazon. I got a voucher for my birthday and now I'm waiting for 8 new books *__*
Apart from that, look at my new things >////<.

Aren't they cute? The first item is from DreamV (I always order via Rakuten) and the second item is from a German secondhand/swapping community called "Kleiderkreisel".
The shoes are a tad too big, even though they are supposed to be 36. Damn you small feet of mine.

I also received a few new items from my family and my friend L.

 The first two items I received from L. Thank you so much ;__;

 Real pearl necklace and Miss dior perfume. perfect.

And my sister's gift. I think that's a hint in saying cook more scandinavian food for me. I know my sister ;D.
