Happy in a Corner

So I’m turning into a real burlesque junkie. Then again I’m going to support my friends, but also because the world is just fun. Meeting people is turning out well. I’m thinking I should kitten. That would be fun I think. Get all adorable and be a little entertainment. Gotta get over that stage fright…

My first professional costume piece went over fantastic. Violet loves it, and I love that she loves it. Its going on tour with her so yay me! I impressed the right person.

So much glitter though… all over the place, all over me. Its been an eventful weekend of shows.

The Goblin King - Labyrinth Master Post

So, post GeekGirlCon I’m completely inspired to make costumes again. On my list now

Jareth from Labyrinth.

Isn’t he fabulous?

I adore this movie, and since we had a big giant Labyrinth sing along to end the con and there was a brilliant Jareth there on Saturday I’m completely inspired. I’ve been looking at wigs, patterns, and most importantly the spandex leggings.

My fruits so far:

Leggings: (In either the dark grey here or the lighter one in most styles, maybe black)

Boots: (color depends on the outfit I pick, grey, taupe or black)

Those eyebrows are fantastic. And the glitter of the ball coat is beautiful.

I think that’s enough of a Jareth spam. I can’t pick one of his costumes, they’re all so fabulous. Luckily most have similar pieces. This is going to be fun. I think I need to go cap the film and pick my favorite outfit.
