'ello there! I was just wondering if anyone has any suggestions for who I should cosplay. I've asked the same thing on Cosplay.com, and got some good suggestions.. but I'd love to see what the cosplayers here think. :3 Here's some info just in case the pics aren't enough:

I'm 16 years old, 5', and 90-something pounds. I have black hair that goes a few inches past my shoulders, and it kind of shines redish/purple in the sunlight. Also, I have blue eyes. I'm fine with crossplay, wigs, and contacts.

Some of these aren't recent, but they'll do:

Pic 1 - Me and my friends at JAMPcon. I'm the one with calligraphy ink all over my arm, standing beside the girl in white on the right. xD;
Pic 2 - This one's a couple years old.. I now have black hair (like I said earlier)
Pic 3 - This is pretty much the color of my hair now, though you can't see as much red anymore.
Pic 4 - This one's kind of recent..I'm on the left.
Pic 5 - My friends.. decided to curl my hair and force me to wear makeup for some reason..
Pic 6 - Once again, this is about the same color as my hair now. (This pic wasn't really needed..I just need 6 pics, or I'd go all Obsessive Compulsive..)

Anyway~!! I'd love it if you guys could give me suggestions. :3 I'm kinda obsessed with wanting to cosplay right now.. Though, I don't get to cosplay for like two months, for an anime party in Chattanooga..

Thank you in advance to any suggestions that're given. :33

Hey there KitsuneRenaChan!

I think you'd make a good Witch Hunter Robin from the anime of the same title:

Tohru Honda from Fruits Basket:

Yuko Ichihara from Schrödinger's Lion:

(this girl has TONS of outfits...just google her)

Sango from Inuyasha:

Miranda Lotto from D Grayman:
http://randomc.animeblogger.net/image/D ... e%2032.jpg (you can't see the rest of her victorian outfit, but I think it's stately and gorgeous.

(this is her exorcist outfit, I guess you could call it. haha)

How do those work for you?
Are you looking for something specific style-wise? I can recommend some more later!!!

Personally I think you should choose Miranda Lotto. You look a lot like her and I think you'd portray her very well. You have really striking eyes (and shaving your eyebrows is optional

). I think you should go without black contacts and in her Victorian outfit with her little Mr.Potato top hat. lol. I think you could really pull off that gothic vibe. Watch some D. Grayman. Ep 9 is when I think she comes in for the first time. Then you'll see her full outfit. Kewl beans!!!

Hope these helped. If not just tell me, and give me an idea of what you would like.

Thank you for all the suggestions! I really appreciate them. x3

Witch Hunter Robin - I've never really watched the series, but Robin seems pretty cool to cosplay. :3
Tohru - Wow, never thought I'd get this suggestion. Tohru's personality is like..opposite mine. xD But..ish cosplay, and I get to be someone different! That'd be fun. :3 Plus I've always wanted her school uniform..
Yuuko - xD I was actually talking to a friend last night, wondering if I could pull this off. Thanks for the suggestion~ I think I'ma go for it. x3
Sango - Someone else suggested this to me on another site. Which outfit of hers do you think I should do? (The other person said I should go in her battle outfit..thing)
Miranda Lotto - This one actually seems pretty interesting.. I think I'll go for it. :3 Do you have any pics of her full Victorian outfit, though? 'cause I probably won't be getting around to watching the anime for a while..

Again, thanks for the suggestions. I'm considering several of these. x3

As for style.. I don't really mind.. Anything's fine with me. :3

(My computer hates me.. this is like the third time I've had to write this...)

Go for it! XD Those ideas are great.

How come in all your posts, Missus_Mara theres one pic that always gets sidelined...Or gets directed to hotlinking.

For Sango... I think it should be the Demon Hunter outfit though thats just me but I do like her first appearanced outfit when she isn't fighting any demons.

Okie dokies, then, battle outfit it is. :3 Of course I'll probably make her kimono just for the heck of it.. I wuvs her kimono. x3;

Of course some of these will take a while to get to.. I've already completed 3-4 outfits, and am working on 3 more, all at once.. xD;

But thanks for the suggestions~

Hmmmm, if your personality is that of the "I dislike everything and everyone"type thing, or if you are into death and very twitsed realities, then I'd say Alice from American McGee's Alice, although her hair's a lot more brown than your hair, but I think it's ok

Well, that's pretty much my personality. :3

This one seems fun~ I'll keep it in mind. Thanks. x3
