CHAOS CREWE ROLL CALL AND CHAT. 2014 nov/dec

I've given up trying to find white clothes that look good. I had something last year but leaky glow sticks left a permanent stain. I may just go OTT neon glow and forget about white. It's all about having fun more than anything!

 

Oh, the "normal clothes" part will be even more of a challenge, as we're going straight from Cancun to Miami for the Fins/Ravens game on the 7th with hubby's coworkers. . .

 

I hear you on the white clothes. I think I got something good this year though, silver totally counts as white right?

I do also have to change my cosplay outfit. My Trish, Tamara and kurt are all in a theme and I don't want to be left out now. Back to the drawing board!

 

My Cosplay outfit is so so thin. Can't afford to sweat as I will be wearing a white J cloth. So thin I might re-think mine too. Top didn't fit, pants fit, cape is fine but shit so thin. glad I only paid 20 bucks and not 151.00 like other sites.

 

Bought the provisions for the bottle cap shots...does anyone know if Patyo's uses bar lime?
I guess I could pack some in my luggage if not.

 

Last year I brought all the stuff I bought on line that did not fit and gave it away to women who were less prepared but better sized to fit my on line purchases. This year I did not shop online yet but my daughter has recently received four really nice costumes in the mail that would have been great for me had I not gained so much weight since last year. I may order a few items from the shops she ordered from the stuff came in a week and was quite reasonable. So glad to hear you are staying until the 10th Christa!!!

 

Silly question what is cosplay exactly

 

It really can be so many things. Official Wiki: "short for costume play, is a performance art in which participants called cosplayers wear costumes and fashion accessories to represent a specific character or idea that is usually identified with a unique name."

It is lots of comic book, video game, science fiction shows, books, and movie stuff. Any character really, as opposed to just dressing up as a general costume theme.

 

It'd be a little funny if everyone forgot to pack "normal" clothes to wear on the return flight home.

 

My original cosplay outfit didn't quite work out, either. It looked like a damn gunny sack on me, which just won't do for TTR. I ended up piecing my outfit together and I'm much happier with the result. I'll be curious to see if anyone can figure it out. :wink3:
