27th October 2011: Expo After Shiro's failure yesterday I panicked about not having a costume for Saturday. Thankfully I had Serah with me who still needs a little bit of work.
Managed to grab some shoes today - they're not perfect, but it's better than no costume.
I'm not going to look fantastic, but it's better than nothing IMO...
13th October 2011: Wig fixings Fixed the fringe, still need to sort out the ponytail & thin-ness.
((Camwhoring with Kairu, whose wig I also still need to sort out ))
13th October 2011: Got my work cut out for me 8D This is the costume literally straight from the packaging, and oh boy - I now remember why I never ever buy costumes.
Just from what I can see I need to:
- WIG - FIX IT ._. GOD this is bad ._. restyle it and I need to add wefts in, but don't have time to order some so will have to make some and color and gurghhhh... Possibly buy a new one and start from scratch eventually....
-SHIRT- Take it in and change the see through panels (only a minor thing but I HATE the fabric they've used - how hard would it have been to have just used the same fabric as the over jacket ._.)
- OVERJACKET- Add the holes in the back of it - for some reason the manufacturer decided to overlook this obvious part of design? XD
-SKIRT- Change the godawful sequins on the front (personal hatred for sequins) I'd like to mod the skirt as they've included glitter silver thread for some obscene reason, but that's not possible ;3; aaand cut the lace as it's poorly cut out...
-WRIST BANDS- need to make a white one as a piece of ribbon isn't right. The black one needs taking in as it just slides down my darn arm xD
-SHOES- Need to buy some and mod them!
All small things, but when added together a lot of hassle ._. I doubt they'll all occur before I first wear her but they will eventually...
Face blacked out because today is a class day and I look crap 8D
