New Cosplay - Rey!

So my next cosplay is probably a pretty predictable one... but when a badass character like Rey comes along sometimes a girl just can't say no!

What can I say? I was totally enthralled and impressed by seeing such a sassy and wonderful female at the centre of the newest addition to the Star Wars franchise. (And to the people who will be coughing the words 'Mary Sue' sarcastically please come and discuss this with me when my staff is complete! :))

So I will intend to finish this cosplay in time to wear for MCM May this year which shouldn't be too tricky once I start on the actual clothes... but for now here's a quick review of the parts I have so far started work on!

Quick, Cute and Easy Presents!

I realise now that this post is way too late to be relevant for Christmas anymore... But it's never too early to start stocking up ideas for next Christmas right?! (And let's not forget all the pesky birthdays in between!) 

This year I suddenly realised that I was a poor student who suddenly had twice as many people to find gifts for, so here's a quick list of some cheap but still super cute gifts I managed to rustle up! 

Cosplay Update - Capable, Mad Max.

Whoopsie October got away from me and I forgot to post the finished article, but I did manage to finish my Capable cosplay in time for the convention so here's a little round-up of what happened!

1) I made a set of goggles from a PVC kind of material, the frames of some old sunglasses and the lid of a takeaway tub. For what they were and for the sake of keeping my costs down, I was pretty pleased with them!
