I’m selling my Luna costume to make funds for Otakon possible. 

Costume includes:

-The styled wig (Arda’s Claudia with 2 braided buns sewn in, and bangs styled)

-The yellow overdress (Sized: 36” bust, 29” waist, hips- free)

-The two black underskirts (which can be worn or not worn- if you just wear the sparkly one, it creates the costume into her “shorter” skirt) (sized: elasticized waist for free sizing)

-The neck bow w/ bell (adjustable size)

-The jewlery (earrings, anklet, necklace, and forehead moon)

-The black bows (two removable front bows, and the large back bow)

So I’m so close to being done Periwinkle’s wig!! I still need to order more white wefts (sorry it’s cloudy in these photos)… hmmmm… but I think after I thicken it out and use wefts to cover up the “trouble” spots, it’ll be PERFECT!! I worked so hard to make this as much as Periwinkle’s in the movie as possible. ;3; OH also- if you need help and reference making your own I posted a thing here.

“10/7/07
I just wanted to let you know that no matter what, no matter where, etc. I will always love you unconditionally. If I seem to push you or put pressure on you sometimes I am sorry. I will try to do better in the future. But ultimately, I love you and want to see you happy. Love Dad”
My parents and I were always fighting. They’re type A’s, (a plastic surgeon and a head nurse), perfectionists to the Nth degree. All my brothers are amazingly talented lawyers (quite literally), who all had straight A’s, were the team captains, etc.
I’m adopted. I’m the problem child. I’m the art student, the college drop out. I’m the kid who spent 5 years in and out of multitudes of mental hospitals on the east coast. I not only look different from my whole family (dark skin, dark hair, etc)- I act different, think different, etc.
Back in ‘07, right after a huge fight with my parents about my GPA (a 3.7), I self harmed for the first time. My mother wouldn’t talk to me about it- in her words, it was “my own fault” and “I was just seeking attention”… I was just “hateful and out to make my parents upset” and that there was just “something wrong with me”. 
Later that night… I found this slipped under my door. 
6 years later… I am better than I was. I’m happy, and healthy. I’ve been through many many hospitalizations, suicide attempts, hurt, pain, and sadness… but this note was always a little candle in the darkness. I’ve never mentioned it to my dad… he probably wouldn’t talk about it because he’s quiet and humble that way… but it was something that kept me going. That even when he was mean sounding or put a ton of pressure on me… deep down I’d remember this note and know he didn’t truly mean those things the way I thought he did. 
At first I wasn’t going to ever share this with anyone… it felt too close to heart? But then I remembered all the posts I see on here every day. The posts of people who are in pain and need a light- just like I did. Granted, I know this isn’t your dad… but maybe think about it? Most people’s parents think this way- they really do love you, even if they suck at expressing it or showing it. (Some people just aren’t blessed with good communication.) I’m sure you have people in your life that love you deeply, even if they’re not blood related. Friends, neighbors, teachers, coaches- hey, even us tumblr friends!
So write it down- Date it. Write down all the NICE things that happen. All the things people do out of LOVE for you. Have a book filled with those things, and every time you feel like you want to give up- RE-READ that book. Even if there’s only one thing- it is SOMEThING, some ONE who needs you. And the dates matter- it’s a testament to the hours, the days, the months, the years- that you’ve held on and been strong and CONQUERED this shit. Yes conquered- because in a battle with this kind of stuff, every day is a victory.

Just because it’s Bodyline, doesn’t mean it can’t be just as amazing as Brand! I’m so sick of everyone making lolita fashion elitest- it doesn’t have to be, and it shouldn’t be.

Photographer: Nate (NaterPix)

Clothes: Dress/Bow (Bodyline), Tights (Forever21), Shoes (Steve Madden, i think?), Shrug (???), Wig (Miss Violet Lace). EDIT: I forgot to mention, my Petti is a ClassicalPuppets ALine.
