Lolita Photoshoot

Hi there lovelies, how are you all?

I'm sorry I have been so busy lately that I haven't had time to blog. But I thought for this post I'd like to share my photographs I submitted for a couple of model competitions. I entered one for GLW's 'muse for a weekend' at Anime Matsuri where you model their wigs at the expo, and the other was Bodyline's model search where you spend a week in Japan modelling for them. The GLW competition begins as a photo competition on facebook - so look out for me spamming my link next month! I would be so happy if I won one of these contests! It has been my dream for quite some time now to get into the J-Fashion modelling business, and I think this could be the break I've been looking for!

My Nanoo (Grandmother) was kind enough to take photographs of me, so here are my favourite four:

 

~Coordinate Rundown~
Dress: Angelic Pretty Wonder Party OP in Pink
Cuffs: Baby, the Stars Shine Bright
Shoes: Secret Shop Tea Parties in Pink
Wig: eBay
Rose Headband: Handmade by me

This is my favourite coordinate at the moment, unfortunately the girl I bought the OP off did not have the head bow, so I have had to make do with a pink rose headband I quickly put together before Supanova! I think it still works quite well with my elegant tea party print and pink theme. Although, I am still on the look out for a Wonder Party head bow in the pink or pink x sax colour way, so if any of you cuties spot any available please let me know!

I hope you like my photos, tell me what you think! Don't forget to subscribe to my blog & like my facebook page!

Much love,

Brisbane Supanova 2013

Last weekend I attended Supanova in Brisbane. I cosplayed as Homura Akemi on Saturday, and wore lolita on Sunday. It was very hot and humid. I had a lot of fun, but I was a bit disappointed with the layout and the lack of air-conditioned space. What else do you expect from a convention at the RNA Showgrounds? This was my first time attending Brisbane Supanova. I can't wait for next year! They are re-locating to the BCEC! I think next year it will be a lot more enjoyable for everyone. I met numerous people over the weekend and have made some lovely new friendships. I bought a few little goodies and got to see some amazing cosplays and stores! All in all I still had a fantastic time, regardless of the heat!

My outfits:
Saturday ~ Homura Akemi Cosplay.
On Saturday I cosplayed one of my favourite anime characters, Homura Akemi. I purchased my outfit from Bodyline, my shield from a seller on eBay, and my wig also from a seller on eBay. I also wore Geo Super Size Nudy circle lenses in violet which I bought from Pinky Paradise. I will be doing reviews for every item later in the week! So keep your eyes pealed for that!

Sunday ~ Lolita.
On Sunday I wore my favourite lolita dress I own - Wonder Party OP by Angelic Pretty. This dress has been one one of my dream dresses since I laid eyes on it! The print detail is beautiful, and the small characteristics like the gold club & heart buttons, and the tiny spoon on the collar really compliment the dress. Not only is it my favourite colour, Wonder Party features tea pots & cups on the print, as well as cupcakes, and I'm obsessed with all three! I actually have a small tea pot & cup collection, which every now and then I add to.

I have only been able to find a few photographs of myself with my friends on the internet that were taken of us, and I have a few not-so-hot-quality phone photographs.(My shield is on the wrong arm in these photos because I wanted to have it in them)

I have already started thinking about who to cosplay next year, sadly (not really) I will be missing out on Gold Coast Supanova 2014 as I will be in Japan! (now you see why I said not really). But I am excited to hear that Comic Con is coming to Brisbane! So that means two conventions next year again, yay!

I hope you've enjoyed the pictures, and if you happen to see any that include myself or any of my friends, please post the links in a comment so I can have them!
