    Cosplay Plans for Little Miss 2018*

    January 3, 2018 /

    This is a sponsored post. A new year means a whole 12 months of letting Little Miss explore her imaginative time by dressing up and acting out. There is no denying my kid is incredibly creative and dreams of being on the stage, and letting her fully embrace cosplay in the past couple of years has been a great start and helped give her confidence. We probably won’t be hitting Disney as often this year but with a few trips to Disneyland Paris planned, a trip to Walt Disney World paid for and a trip to Disneyland in Anaheim on the cards, there are still plenty of opportunities for her…

    Little Miss Cosplays – Belle

    May 1, 2017 /

    Growing up we really didn’t have much money. For a long time my mum didn’t work, then when she started to work she went to retrain as a teacher. We didn’t have a car for a long time although both my parents could drive. Until I was 9 I had never been abroad and even our first trip (which was to Walt Disney World) was because my dad had been made redundant. I wouldn’t say we ever went without though. Any spare money my parents had, they spent on my sister and I, and when I became a mother I vowed I would do the same. But as a single…

    Little Miss Cosplays – New at Closet Geek

    March 4, 2017 /

    Goodness it’s been forever since our last edition of Little Miss Cosplays but a lot of that has been to do with the lighting in my lounge and the fact I felt disillusioned with photography for a while. But since setting myself a challenge of improving my photography skills in 2017 I’ve dug it out and dusted it off, ready to practice my portraits again. And what better way to practice than to take some photos of the fantastic dresses Bee has been working on for Closet Geek? Peter Pan Inspired Dress* RRP £25 We all know how much Little Miss loves Peter Pan so I think this Peter Pan…

    Little Miss Cosplays, Part Five

    February 16, 2016 /

    It’s getting to that time before a trip where I’m starting to think about what I’m going to be putting into the cases. As we’re away for 4 weeks and 80% of that time is going to be spent in the parks, my main focus is of course on the outfits Little Miss is going to wear. I’m at the stage where I need to try everything on and hope they fit, work out what little accessories she needs (because she’s a stickler for that sort of things these days!) So that of course means we’re going to have regular Little Miss Cosplays posts for the next few weeks. I…

    Annabelle’s Wigs Carly Review – Briar Rose Style

    June 18, 2015 /

    As I mentioned in my post about things i’m looking forward to this summer, I mentioned I was excited about going to SFCC with Bee. Well last week we decided who we were going to cosplay this year. Last year at LFCC we cosplayed Ariel & Vanessa (Ursula’s human form) and although we do have a few ideas for more doubles, we decided to go for two not 100% related ideas. Mine was routed in the fact the lovely people at Annabelle’s Wigs had allowed me to choose a wig to style and review. I’d been sent a beautiful which I knew would eventually make a perfect Briar Rose wig.…

    Things I’m Looking Forward to in Summer*

    June 12, 2015 /

    Next month will begin the first summer holidays I will be spending with LM. For the past two years she attended nursery over the summer so for 5 hours a week she was still out of my hands. However since January she has been attending pre-school 5 days a week so I will really feel it when it comes to having her at home very day for 6 weeks. Not only that but it’s also going to be the run up to our holiday so it will seriously feel like a lifetime. However, I have been making plans to entertain LM (and myself). Next week is Summer Solstice, I have…
