work.in.progress. ::update 0.05

Ah...finally something to update with.... 
My Gumi wig came in! XD...  It's actually alot brighter then how it looks in the picture. This is the first green wig i've worn D:... hope i can pull it off ><;

So for updates, I'm just about finished with my skirt for Lightning. I'll be finishing up the details throughout the weekday.... It's difficult to get cutting done after work but I think it'll be easier if i just cut things out tomorrow and just sew the little bits throughout the week.

Other then that, I will be starting on the jacket tomorrow and probably cutting everything else out after... stupid cramps are tiring me out ; ^;... *shakes fist* arg...

Skirt's sitting over the top and Hope's pouch XD

My sewing machine didn't like the vinyl i used for the belt... :( It was being stubborn and wouldn't let the dog feed move it so i tugged it along as i sewed it D:... It didn't turn out too bad though :) S'all good, the belt's only there to make sure the skirt doesn't fall off ;-; atleast I'll know how to sew the belt that holds the jacket together later XD The belt's alot brighter in the picture then how it looks in person ><;

Conclusion: the lighting sucks in my room.

Off to bed now~

I've been tagged...and released into the wild! XD

Mia (Waifu~!) aka 美亜 from COS-trauma tagged me in her blog...and I have a few moments while i get myself pumped to start sewing so I thought i would fill this out XD (talk about procrastination much...)

1)If you could live anywhere else in the world where would you live and why?
ooo... to be honest I don't have a set location but i would love to own a penthouse or condo in LA or San Francisco. LA cause of Anime Expo! ...so i won't have to pay for hotel and when my family goes to LA >_<! and San Francisco because my family is there...<3

2) What is the one dream item you're currently saving up to buy?
...I'm haven't been really saving up for anything but LA atm... so I guess a car? Doesn't have to be anything fancy but as long as it drives and it's safe? XD... Does saving up to move out with my boyfriend count? ; ^;

3) When did you first start blogging?
...I think last year in May or June? It's cause Mia talked me into it XD... As you can tell I don't really blog but this is a good place i can post my WIP and for me to spam...random stuff?

4) What make up item do you use the most often?
I love mascara and concealer. Currently I use Artistry's cashmere mascara (it's out of stock atm :( ) and i just use Artistry's Hydrating Foundation as concealer? It works about the same and i actually like how it looks on my skin more then when i used a concealer from Sephora.

5) What places have you traveled to? (If you haven't, where would you like to travel to?)
Hmm flash to the past....
In Canada:
- Calgary, Banff, Jasper
- Vancouver, Richmond Area
- Toronto when i was 8.
...er that's all I recall at this moment.
In USA:
- San Francisco (where ma homies at!)
- Los Angeles
- Las Vegas
- Portland and Spokane (Business Trips)
Elsewhere...
- China (GuangZhou, Macao, Hong Kong)

I want to go to Japan and Korea! But i definitely want to take my parents to Europe :)

6) When did you start getting into gyaru/lolita/cosplay?
Gyaru/Lolita - i don't recall sorry...but less then 10 years ago ;-;
Cosplay - oh gosh, Gr.8 i think. But i didn't make my first costume till like Gr.11 or something.

7) What do you like to do aside from blogging?
I make costumes and cosplay but I will be going on hiatus after this summer as I need to become job free.
I own my own direct selling business online also~~  :DD
I have a big interest with make-up but i don't like wearing it often XD
I like singing also~ but haven't sang as often these last couple years
I really enjoy spending time with my boyfriend and my friends and family face to face <3

8) What color(s) of clothing do you wear the most of?
When I was still at VS it was just a load of black... But recently I've started taking a liking towards Green. Very odd since i've never really associated with it too closely. I generally like clothes that are purple, red, blue and pink.

9) 10 years from now where do you see yourself?
...hmm I hoping to be married and already have my first child? (Jayden/Kassie <3) Umm by then I should have a home with my boyfriend/hubbie and maybe travelling the world or just helping families become debt free?

10) Have you ever gone to any meet up (gyaru, lolita, cosplay) and how was your experience?
If conventions count then only for cosplay. I enjoy looking at other people's costumes and I like to see how they made them if they did make them. I really enjoyed going to AX last year to see the high level of cosplay :DD people are so talented!!

11) What is your favourite pair of shoes? :P
ahhh I love shoes ;-;...sorry I have to narrow it down to 2 pairs. I like this pair of Lacoste sneakers my boyfriend bought for me and this pair of flats i bought from YesStyle. I'll edit with photos later maybe.

Sorry, I won't be tagging anyone ><;

.work.in.progress. ::update 0.04

No pictures yet but I have started working on Lightning :)
So far I have part of the burgundy top cut out, just need to add the zipper and collar and wallah!
I never realized how short her skirt was....; ^;... i'm so glad she wears short-shorts or spandex under >_<;;
Other then that I've been sketching out ideas on how to make her odd pouch. It's about the same size as Hope's (FFXIII) so shouldn't be too bad...i hope ; ^;... then after making a belt, and the top part of her skirt, the hip area will be done XD...
Gotta head out and buy some flip flops too x_x
I bought fabric with Mia the other day and have all the dress parts for Gumi's Camellia version :) so happy that she will be joining me as Meiko <3
I'm still being very indecisive about Mimi or Lias from Atelier Meruru... i think it might be best to get all the AX plans out of the way first x__x...

...anyways i should sleep.
