Why did I choose this character:

I like Jupiter because I feel her very close to me. We are so alike in many things, love disappintments, cooking, tomboy nature and also physical aspect! ^_^
Plus her fuku is lovely!!


Making off:

This has been my absolutely first cosplay and I'm really affictionated with!
First cosplay and a lot of problems. I didn't know were to find fabrics and which kind and most of all I didn't know how to sew, so mom helped me making the skirt and leotard.
Skirt and collar are made with hunter green lining and bows with sugar pink lining with inron on stiffener inside. Boots is a pair of ankle boots I found at the second hand market and covered with the same green lining of collar and skirt. The collar is trimmed with a white satin ribbon. The leotard is made with white lycra. Gloves are bought and I just added green round trims to them. Hair bobbles are made with two wooden balls painted green, tiara is made with golden adhesive plastic paper with a fake green jem glued on and pink rose earrings are bought at 1 € shop. ^_^
