Day 5, we went and cosplayed at the Summer Palace which was sooooo cool. We posted the photos from the Summer Palace shoot a while back on the HCC LJ, so these photos are just going to be of us walking around.
China: Beijing Day 4
And back to the backlog of China photos! Beijing day 4 was Tiantan or the Temple of Heaven and bananas amounts of shopping.
Dickens Fair 2011
We went to Dickens Fair a couple of weekends ago. It’s one of my favorite events of the year and I always love taking friends to it.
This year, we ate our way across Dickens Fair. We started eating as soon as we got through the entrance and just continued eating the whole day. Sadly, one cannot eat that much in a corset. I really need to go back in muggle clothes so I can have more food (which is really good at Dickens Fair). =D
As always, it was kind of dark inside which made it hard to take photos. I’d like to go to the historical park in San Jose in the spring and get nice some nice photos of this dress.
B/W Striped Victorian progress
This dress is somewhat inspired by Sleepy Hollow ’cause I love the costumes in that movie. And by somewhat, I mean very somewhat… as in the only thing they have in common is black and white stripes.
Halloween at Disney
Ever since we made the good fairies from Sleeping Beauty, we’ve been talking about going to Disneyland for Halloween in them. It’s been really difficult to plan because we’d have to take a day off from work and fly down, but we decided this was the year we were all going to go.
