Thrift Store Finds & Cosplay progress

Hey there guys!

So this week it's March break for us in New-Brunswick, so Tuesday and yesterday I spent the day with my aunt and we went thrift shopping. I found a bunch of cosplay pieces and books within those two days:
I got these books:
- The Lord of the Rings trilogy
- The Hobbit
- Vittorio the Vampire (by Anne Rice)
- Pandora (by Anne Rice)
- Romeo and Juliet
- Alice's Adventures in Wonderland/ Through the Looking-Glass
- City of Ashes (from The Mortal Instruments series)


As you can probably tell by the title of the post, today I will be talking about my progress on my cosplays as well. Though I didn't mention it before, I am currently working on three cosplays:


                
                                                         Sailor Venus from Sailor Moon

Now, for Sailor Venus; I had bought the outfit from a vendor at Animaritme last summer-and it's been hanging in my closet ever since; waiting patiently for me to get a wig and shoes to complete the cosplay-
11th Doctor from Doctor Who &



Ahh! My glorious Doctor! So far, I found a blazer, a shirt & his red suspenders. All I am missing now is a red bow tie. I've found a pair of slacks that are up for debate; so I'll just have to wait and see.




Princess Cadence from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic


I've had candybutt's wig since June 2014, and I finally found myself a dress for her! Though I'm not sure if I'll use the wig or not; I might buy another one that looks better. Besides my little wig issue all I am missing is a pair of shoes and a set of ears, wings and a horn.


So yeah, that's all for now, guys. Keep an eye out for my next post about cosplaying with an insulin pump. It's a topic that is rather important to me because I am a pump user myself, and I've been trying to figure out where to hook it without it looking too strange.
This is AbiTheOtakuGirl making an exit and MandoPony is going to play me out!
