ladyofthethreadNew Count D costume is going well and I should be able to finish it in time for Anime North. The skirt still needs a hem and the top needs the sleeves added but that’s about it.
Unfortunately, I called my optometrist again on Thursday and my purple contacts are still not here although the honey sample lens came in. -_- He knows I wanted to pick them up before leaving for Canada and said he’d call me when they come in. But we’re leaving early Thursday morning and if he doesn’t get them by sometime Tuesday, I’m probably not going to have time to run into the city and get them. When I ordered the purple contacts two weeks ago, he told me he thought he could get them in about a week so I had my hopes up that I’d be able to have contacts for D in time for Anime North, especially since I finally decided to splurge and get them. Plus, I’ll actually have a group to cosplay the series with this time. Damn toric prescription complicates everything. >_<
Went out in search of masks yesterday since I have a ticket for the masquerade ball at Anime North. I bought a gold one with red feathers on one side to go with my formal Terra. It’s one of those masks on a stick because I don’t want my wig to get messed up even more that it already does and my circlet would probably be in the way of a regular mask, too. Not sure if I want to actually wear Terra to the ball but I have an idea for my masquerade walk-on where it would be useful as a prop.
I wanted to get something that could go with my D costumes if I decided to wear one of those instead but nothing at the costume shop looked like they’d go very well with either. So, instead, I picked up a plain mask to decorate at the Rag Shop. Turns out I’ll have to put this one on a stick, too, since it doesn’t fit my face very well. The eyehole placement just doesn’t work for me and my eyelids hit the edges of the holes when I blink. -_-
Less than a week left and still so many little things to finish up. Group stuff has been settled though and I’m excited I’ll actually have people to cosplay Twelve Kingdoms and Petshop of Horrors with this con! ^_^
