Growing Up
I recently watched “Won’t you be my neighbor?“, the documentary about Fred Rogers aka “Mr. Rogers”, and I left the theater feeling incredibly inspired and moved by what an amazing person he was. His kindness and approach towards both children and adults and how we deal with issues and feelings is probably just the right attitude we need right now towards the world. I myself was also going through some challenging and emotional ups and downs and watching this movie…

Casual Friday at Wondercon 2018
If there’s one con that’s always been one of my favorites, it’s Wondercon. I not only love the mix of people, but I love the location (yay Disneyland!) and the fact that it’s big enough to bring the big companies, but small enough where lines are totally not at the SDCC level. As for cosplay, I only had one costume in mind for Wondercon and that was

Have You Seen This Girl?
Have you ever looked in the mirror and realized that you’re unintentionally cosplaying? Well, the other day I had one of those moments. I was wearing my favorite striped dress and decided I needed a light jacket to wear over it. Fall is all about layering so I put on an army shirt with a light hoodie underneath. I was halfway through my day when I suddenly realized who I resembled – Ramona Flowers. Granted, Ramona Flowers has SO many looks in…

Smells Like Trash Panda
When it comes to buying stuff at cons, especially San Diego Comic-Con, it’s all about lots of swag, exclusives, and cool merch, right?? Wrong!! For someone who already has way too much stuff and is constantly trying to declutter (keyword being “trying”), shopping at cons is such a challenge for me. As a collector, I want everything! But on the other hand, I’m trying to only buy stuff I really really love (suggests Mari Kondo). Even though I am a victim of having way…

What to Wear – The San Diego Comic-Con 2017 Edition
SDCC is finally here and if you’ve been following me on Instagram, you can probably tell I’m super excited. These past few weeks have been a bit crazy, finishing my season 3 Sabine cosplay, reading all about upcoming Comic-Con exclusives, and of course planning what to see and what events I want to go to! With constant news being released, my plans are constantly changing! And of course, there’s the big question of “What am I going to wear??” In fact, I was…

Rockin’ the Heat
It’s been a pretty hot summer, which has been the perfect excuse to make some new tank tops. I’ve been buying way too many Guardians of the Galaxy tees (because they all look SO cool) and instead of just cutting them all into sleeveless tanks, I’ve been trying to mix it up with some DIY. The graphic on this tee was totally album cover worthy so I wanted to add a bit of punk cutouts to the back. All it took…
