>I'm done with this shit

>Me patiently waiting for you to post again.

Already asked in the stupid questions thread and agreed that here would be a better place to ask; what are some stores that sell good, daily lolita dresses to wear around the house that can be safely machine washed (delicately)? A kind anon mentioned Strawberry Witch and I've already planned on buying some after CNY but I'd love suggestions for more stores! Thanks in advance!

>mfw sold a dressform through craigslist
>the lady I sold it to is a fellow cosplay mom.
>We spent time nerding about cosplay, conventions, and so on, I was even talking with her son about a video game we both play a bit.
>I hope I'll see her and her family at conventions

I got to make some money, she got the exact dressform she'd been eyeing in stores, and hopefully I can make a fellow cosplay parent friend.

>Hubby decides to do last minute costume before AX with a week to go. Need to color his beard, hair, and eyebrows.
>Call local costume shop looking for theatrical grade temp hair coloring
>One of the few places I know sells Ben Nye makeup, and yep, they have Ben Nye brand hair coloring too.
>Drive over to buy a bottle, and talking with guy about how I need it for my husband's costume for AX.
>He makes a joke about how my husband better be using it for Totoro.
>MFW, during the conversation and finding out he's been in the costuming scene for years, he helps people out with their AX, SDCC, and Labyrinth of Jareth costumes every year.

He was a nice guy and we got talking about costumes, the con, and apparently the poor guy doesn't actually get to go much because he's bogged down helping other people with their costumes.

Goin this year like the last few years. It's the start of the year and a chance to see out of town friends.

(this was the first place I thought of) To all my con photographer buds, what cameras do you use? I want to start getting into photography but I need some guidance.

i'm sorry, but I don't know. I'm not the cosplayer. I like her expressions and the whole photoset. Flaws and all.
