Shugo Chara Cosplay Update 2

in: Cosplay

Cross Shaped Hair pins? CHECK! I got these done tonight, I’m not doing the skirt myself but with help from my grandmother and i got home late today so she was already asleep by the time i got home. So i decided to finish these up and focus on the skirt tomorrow and this weekend. Now all i need other than the skirt is a different shirt with longer sleeves, a tie and them I’m done! Here are more pictures of the pins on my wig and on me…


My shirt’s sleeves are too short :( plus missing tie…


Do my eyebrows look bad since they are so dark and my wig is so light?

Hopefully i won’t be dying of heat in this outfit. But at least I’ll be able to remove the jacket. In my Cosplay last year i couldn’t and i was dying the entire time… The clips were just masking tap that i folded together and then cut, I then painted and then glued them to hair clips that i got at wal-mart. I’m actually really glad at how well they came out.

    Haha! Good idea for the hair clip. :)

    Dun worry about your eyebrows, you never notice when other cosplayers don’t have matching hair-eyebrows, do ya?

    For your shirt with long sleeves, you might want to get a dinner shirt (yes, a men’s one) cos it’ll be hard to get the right sleeve length without the shirt being too big for you!

    GAWD I wish I had the guts to cosplay!! Shugo Chara would be an awesome one to do. I totally wish I wasn’t so lazy and could be bothered to make my own aswell… since most of the ready made cosplay is WAAY too short for me. I have to make a point of ordering a made-to-size cosplay outfit off ebay….

    Sorry if my questions are bothersome, you don’t have to answer them. >.<
