MCM Cosplay type stuff wheee.

[blood_winged]

Something to bind my chest - check
Wig - check (actually they tried to deliver it today but no one answered, so I'm getting up tomorrow to wait for the DHL guy.)

Shoes - Not check, yet. Going to shop around Leigh/Wigan and see if I can find any before I shell out on the postage for the ones I've seen on ebay.
Costume - Ordering at the beginning of September. Mum is awesome and is giving me £50 towards it. Because she's awesome.

Also going to get some cheap ACE bandages so I can try the costume on properly when I get it.

Hotel - lucid_endeavor AKA Jasper who I will be going with has sent me (most) of his share of the hotel money, so I shall be booking that.. probably after the weekend when I also have money.

Transport can be booked nearer to the time.

I need to go into town and ask the people in Boots about contact lenses. I don't know exactly what I'll need to do to get them, whether they'll be able to help me then and there or if I'll have to give my optician's a call and ask for my prescription. If I could get away without wearing glasses, I would, but my eyes are rather bad now and it would ruin my day if I had to go half-blind.

Luckily, I am a natural blonde and can therefore carry off England's hair colour. I also have naturally slightly dark eyebrows which I've never plucked, and naturally green eyes. Win.
