Ok... as previous posts show... I really like costumes.
Alice, Hobbits, Sherlock, Moonrise Kingdom, Lizzie Bennet Diaries.
But I thought I should give you an update of some costumes and cosplay lately.
For Halloween, some friends and I decided on going as Fantastic Mr. Fox characters.
Even despite the "What does the fox say?" craze, this Wes Anderson inspired look was a fun one to pull together.

A few weeks later was the Doctor Who 50th anniversary special (extensive post here).
For the house party with friends, I went as Amy Pond from "The Impossible Astronaut"

She rocked it as Rose from "The Idiot's Lantern" (1950's ;) and I went as the 11th Doctor.

I even found myself an Amy from "The Impossible Astronaut" episode - perfect!

December brought with it the Hobbit and, being that Bob wanted to see my costume, I threw an "Unexpected Party" at work.

| [Hobbit: ears, vest, green blazer, cloak, Lothlorien Leaf, handkerchief.] |

And then, this past Sunday, Sherlock returned to PBS. So, my flatmate and I hosted a costumed premiere party.
I knew right away, I wanted to go as "The Woman." And no, not because of that.

Somewhat last minute, not only did my brothers come, they brought their A-game as Moriarty and Sherlock - the gents in Irene's life.
 |
| [Moriarty: Westwood, Irene: Azagury, Sherlock: Belstaff] |
So... those have been my costume adventures the last few months.
I'm looking forward to more soon. Any reason for a costume. :)
Which are some of your favorite characters or costumes? Who do you like to dress up as?

How delightful. Sorry that I have been remiss in following your blog. I remembered you as the one who followed my Jabez Falconir account, then rerouted your follows when Sanditon ended or suchlike. I soon abandoned using the account, but not before I followed you on it. Upon revisiting, I noted that you enjoyed Chesterton. Not enough people in my acquaintance discuss his work. So I was intrigued and happy. Not only that, but you are a clever cosplayer as well. Hope you have a lovely day, apologies for length.
