♥~Hair Bows~♥
Cute pink matching bows made from 2" Swiss Double-face satin ribbon. I lucked into finding a perfect match to the spandex I used for the top. The ribbon is supper buttery and silky, I just love how it feels! ♥
They're mounted on bobby-pins so they can be attached to my hair. ^_^
♥~Jewelry~♥
I finally invested in some genuine simple pearl earrings with sterling silver posts for my Usagi cosplays. I love how they look! I found them at a local shop and they were actually affordable which is what surprised me the most. :D
This cosplay also gives me another excuse to wear my Usagi engagement ring if I feel so inclined; since she dose wear this outfit in StarS (you know...the one where Seiya comes over to Usagi's house and they have cake, and chibi-chibi dose "unmentionable things" and Seiya ends up in the shower) XD
♥~Top~♥
Made from a high quality Lycra-spandex that I found on a fabric shopping trip to NYC. I made it from an altered version of my pattern for eternal senshi leotards, it's fully lined even the sleeves. For the skirt part I lengthened the pattern for the senshi circle skirt I used, it is also fully lined with a lighter spandex that I lucked into locally (since I was just a little short on the original fabric). I love how full and flouncy it came out. The front bow is made from the same spandex I used for the rest of the top. The lacing down the back is the ¼" matching Swiss double-faced satin ribbon that actually laces and is functional. The ribbon runs through some cute mini D-rings that are hand-stitched to the top to make the proper look and number of points for the ribbon.
♥~Black Shorts~♥
They're just basic black cotton-Lycra shorts, definitely the easiest bit. ;P
♥~Shoes~♥
After keeping an eye out for months I finally found them at a local shop on clearance. They're ballet flat style with a touch of a heel, tan soles, and they have a cute little strap with a bow. I was so happy to find such a perfect matching pair for so little money, and they're even real leather to boot! ^_^
- Personal Thoughts:
- I was re-watching Sailor Moon for the n-th time and I saw this outfit and thought it was super cute and I had the immediate desire to make it so I did. XD (This outfit is in Episodes 99, 105, 108, 184) It's so much fun to wear and run around in and it's super comfy. :D
