I’ve been wanting to do this cosplay for AX as well but didn’t want to say anything until i got my wig in the mail. I was worried that it wouldn’t arrive in time or that it wouldn’t be the right color. I finally got it in the mail today and i LOVE IT! I’ve had some of the outfit ready already but i didn’t want to buy anything else until i was absolutely sure i would have it ready in time for AX. Well looks like not only will i be doing my Shugo Chara cosplay but an Aria cosplay as well!
and here we go, a lame picture of me. I think i need to cut the wig a bit and style it. Hopefully just style it better and not cut it but if i have to cut it i will. Now the only parts i don’t have yet are the blue tights and the boots. But the Blue tights are already on their way and i can get the boots this weekend and then i’ll be done!
I’ve got the shorts, shirt, and I need to re-make the scarf since it’s too short. I’ve also got to figure out how to make the hair pins. Hopefully i figure that out soon unless someone has any ideas?
As you can see I’m wearing my rainboots that i use to go into the mountains with. Well this is it for now, i’ll keep you guys posted with new updates on this cosplay like i have been with my Shugo Chara Cosplay!

Hey I just saw this post on Anime Nano! Nice blog. Anyways, I LOVE ARIA! I think it’s totally awesome you’re doing some Aria cosplay. I’ll be at AX this year as always myself so I’ll be looking for “Aika”. It looks great! Are you going to go for the thigh highs as well? Loving the blue hair as well =)

Very nice cosplay. Haven’t seen the anime or anything, but still you look almost like her, just like ther other posts said, just need the tight highs and you are good to go.

You absolutely look just like her. However, I think Aika out of uniform might be hard to recognize, at least at first glance. I suggest accessorizing. Get yourself a paddle, or maybe a Maa.
On a completely unrelated note, I’m now inspired to crossplay as Athena.

Yeah, you need to layer the wig up in the back.

Undine uniform would be awesome for sure. If I was a girl, that’s the one I’d love to cosplay, but must requiere a lot of efforts to make one (and lot of money to buy one x_x)
But this one looks great too, and every single ARIA fan would catch the reference
Nice choice!

Nice cosplay!!!
I had never tried cosplay as 2 characters at conventions. I usually cosplay as one character. Be waiting for photos from AX!!!!!

@Baka_Raptor:
I’m thinking of trying to figure out way to either get a Maa or Himeya Shachou
@Marmot:
I’m doing that as well, i just needed to get a foam head so i can make sure that it’s even…
@lu-k:
I’m hoping that people who have seen aria will catch the reference
@Rin:
last time i did three cosplays, i’m actually debating on doing a third for AX as well.

You need some uggboots! well thats what it looks like shes wearing in the picture you have lol.
and for the hairclips idea, you can cross two bobby-pins together to create the criss-cross look.
and you look good with blue hair! you pulled it off well lol.
