♡ Hyper Japan 2014 ( + Haul) ♡

Hello everyone! I hope you're well!

 Sorry it's been a while, once again I've been busy with school etc. and I've found myself so exhausted ; u ; 

Anyway, last week I went to the Hyper Japan Christmas Market for the first time and thought I'd do a post (mainly a haul though) on it! 

I was super excited to attend as I've never been to a Convention or anything like that in London. Instead of going on the Saturday like usual we planned to go just on the Sunday as it was quite a bit cheaper! Although I am planning going on all three days next Summer! I'll discuss that later on though on my Social Media! 

For Hyper Japan I originally planned to be Gloomy Bear Sonico, but instead had to go as Nurse Sonico as the Cosplay wouldn't be here on time! ( Not that I minded since either way I was Sonico).

My Costests turned out far better than I looked on the actual day ; v ; I still want to improve my Sonico loads since she's my favourite character...

The train to London was an easy journey and we didn't set off really early either which meant I wasn't too tired during the day! Unfortunately some of the tubes were off so it took us a while to get there! 

Once we got there we didn't have loads of time, but I still managed to get around every stall (which didn't take too long in all honesty), chat to some friends, take a few photos and even get interviewed for J-Melo! I probably sound and look like an idiot on the interview but I may just avoid watching it! The day was overall really good, apart from a few creeps who didn't ask my permission for photos ; v ; it makes me sad that people act like that at expo, I need to gain enough confidence to reject photos as well next time!  

♡ Cosplay Sky Anna Cosplay | Sponsored Review ♡

Hello everyone!

So today I'm doing another review for you, but this time I'll be reviewing something a little bit different!

I got the opportunity to be sent a Cosplay from the wonderful CosplaySky. CosplaySky is an UK based online store who provides a large variety of Cosplay Costumes, Props and Shoes! I was so excited to  work with them, as a keen Cosplayer it gave me a chance to Cosplay a character soon than I expected to!

The owners at CosplaySky let me pick a Cosplay from their large collection, it was a hard decision as they have so many but I finally made a decision! 

Apologies to those who are sick of Frozen, but I couldn't resist choosing Anna's Winter Dress! I know so many people are over Frozen, but me? I'm still in love with it, I still find myself singing the songs and Anna and Elsa have been on my Cosplay list ever since I first saw the film. I got sent the one without the cape which you can find here for £59.99. CosplaySky also do a version with the cape here for £84.00. Both versions come in 7 different sizes and also have an option for Custom sizes ( which is another £40.00 ).

Once I had chosen out my Cosplay, I planned to do a photoshoot at a hall near me! It was probably best that I had received the Cosplay without a cape as the weather was absolutely perfect for the shoot! Although, in the new year I will be either making or buying a cape a have the Cosplay début most likely for Birmingham MCM in March! 

Once my parcel was sent out, it took about a week to arrive to my house! I was so surprised at how quick it arrived! The Cosplay was wrapped in two layers ( one being the parcel it came in ), I'm guessing if you have more fragile pieces then there would be more protection, but since all the sections on Anna's Cosplay was soft there was no need for many layers! 

So here's the first photos from the shoot, as you can see the Cosplay consists of three different parts. The undershirt, the 'bodice' and the skirt. I found that the Cosplay in real life was far more impressive in person than on the stock photos. The shirt being more of an accurate blue colour, than the paler one in the stock photo! The Bodice section is made out of a velvet-like material, which I like as it looks similar to Anna's bodice in the film! It's super soft, a tiny bit shiny, but nothing which makes it look like a cheap Cosplay Costume! It's thick and warm, despite it not having sleeves. One of my favourite features about it is the embroidering on it, it's neat but also very accurate ( apart from some missing detail on the shoulders)! As for the way it fits, I chose a small, but I could of done with an extra small as it's a little big on me, but I can easily adjust that! The shape of the bodice I feel is also very flattering, but once again accurate to Anna's design. Along the back there is a zip so there is easy access into it.

✿ Florida 2014 Haul - Sanrio, DKNY, Disney & more! ( Photo Heavy ) ✿

Hello cuties!

Today I'm back with another Florida related post. This time I'm going to be doing a haul of all the stuff I bought during the three weeks! ( Find out what I got to in Florida here )

I was originally going to do a haul blogpost & video, but unfortunately I didn't have time in the summer holidays ( don't worry guys I'm still planning to do videos eventually, just give me a little more time ) I was also planning to do a haul for each week I was there but it turned out that I actually bought most of my stuff in the first week, so the other hauls would be a little sparse? 

✿ A photo of all the stuff I purchased - so much pink! ✿
