Get Your Nerd On

Hey everyone!

I’m going to start posting updates on my cosplay outfits I’ll be working on this summer for NYCC– here’s to hoping they come out okay since I’ve never done this before and I’ve actually never been to a con. Can ย you believe that? I know, so depressing for a geek like me. ๐Ÿ˜ฆ But it’s okay! I’ll change that this year. I plan on going to a few in the area when I can atleast for a day or two.

I’ll be attending Wizard World Philly – but I still need to find an outfit. I wanted to go the cliche Misty from Pokemon since it’s super simple and easy to throw together but then I wonder how many others I’ll run into. And plus it’s not a real cosplay outfit.. there’s myย road block. So I have a few options that I have picked out- and I’ll need your help. I know I’m going as Jinx from League of Legends to the NYCC in October- here’s to hoping I get that press pass I registered for. I should know by June 6! Fingers crossed, wish me luck!

So for Wizard World- I had another thought. Maybe I can pull off a Raven from Teen Titans since I already have a hooded cloak as it is (I think) and I can get a simple wig. I also had the idea of Ramona Flowers from Scott Pilgrim. If anyone else might have any ideas as of who is simple enough without being TOO simple or tacky, please let me know- I’m always open to new ideas and things especially for this. Here are my ideas:

I’ve also thought of this one too which… heh. I know I can pull off because I have the wig already and I can easily make fluffy wear. I juat need a larger chest area and then I’m golden. That might cost a few… thousand though sadly. So nothing too soon haha.

So it’s getting near to Wizard World in Philly.. trying to vamp up something for it. I don’t know what day I am going yet whether it be Friday the 20th or Sunday the 22nd- I can’t go Saturday as much as I wanted to. (I’m going to be dying at a 5k that day in the Poconos with a bunch of people.) Maybe I’ll go Sunday and meet John Cena… lol. Yuck. I know he’ll be there.. I’m tempted just for the heck of it.

I think I may try and just pull off something simple for this time and go all out for NYCC… I haven’t heard back about my press pass yet – but I’m hoping I get one. It would be awesome to be able to do that.
More later – need to get planning.
