Cosplay And Costumes

As a child, my favorite thing was to emulate the cartoon characters that I watched. Once I have taken interest in a character, whether it be American or Japanese cartoons, there’s no stopping me. And because my family is rather supportive to me, they have given me costumes of my favorite characters. I was so excited and happy when I got my first costume! I can now look like my favorite characters, rather than just acting like them. For during the day wearing costumes will feel hot and uncomfortable, I usually wear my costumes during night time.

I don’t wear costumes regularly now that I’m now a grown up. Despite of that, my interest in costumes remains the same. One of my hobbies now is collecting costumes. The costumes now are truly highly detailed now compared to back then, in which I am truly fascinated. At times I would go to the net browsing for costumes. While browsing, I would see different kinds of costumes like Superman Costumes, the Simpsons costumes, a Naruto Costume (from the Japanese Anime), StarCraft costumes, a Mr Potato Head Costume, and much more. The sight of such costumes really makes me happy.

Usually, Halloween and Christmas are the times where you can wear your costumes because of many costume parties during these seasons. However, there are now costume roleplay or more commonly known as “cosplay” conventions. It is where many people gather together wearing different kinds of costumes. Though initially a foreign word to Americans, people in the west are now accepting the word cosplay that is first coined in Japan. Cosplay in America and Japan are almost the same, with their difference lies on the characters found in such events. For example, American cosplayers commonly feature western characters, so you will see people wearing a Batman costume, a Shrek costume, or a Mr Potato Head Costume during these events. Cosplay in Japan commonly feature characters from their local cartoons. But still you will see anime characters in western cosplay conventions and vice versa, for this rule is really not written in stone.

Another fun thing about being a cosplayer is that you can wear costumes not intended for your gender. Without raising suspicions about your gender preference, you can crossdress during cosplay conventions. So it is also common to see a boy wearing a Japanese high school girl costume or a girl wearing a Mr Potato Head Costume.

Costumes are really interesting for it can make your fantasy a reality, even if only through your clothes. It is so fun, that even adults have joined the fun. For I think that they are a lot of fun, I think I will join some cosplay events when I have the time. I suggest that you should try it at least once. After all, millions of happy cosplayers can’t be wrong!

Picking The Right Halloween Costume For Your Baby

October is just a couple of months away, and so is Halloween. For Halloween is nearing, the time for costume parties is also nearing us. Costume parties are gatherings where families and friends get together, usually at Halloween, wearing different kinds of costumes. Everybody just loves to wear their best costume during such parties and impress their peers. Other groups of people, usually a family, go to these parties wearing costumes with the same theme or category.

Some parents just love to dress up their little babies, and Halloween is the perfect opportunity for them to do it. This is perfectly normal, for their babies will grow up, and they will not have an opportunity like this in the future. Choosing a costume for babies is very easy to do, for babies are naturally cute whatever they wear. But to make life more easier for you, here are some costume suggestions for your little baby.

Costumes of Baby Animals
Animal costumes are one of the top choices or a baby Halloween costume. People love to see babies, and they also love to see little animals. If so, why not show them both? Dogs, cats, frogs, lions, and bears are the popular animal choices for this category. And also, you can also choose an animal in an animated TV show or film, like a Garfield costume or a Shrek Donkey costume.

Costumes from Cartoons
In choosing an infant costume, cartoon characters are also a popular choice. Baby Shrek Costume, Yoda costume, and a Jessie costume from Toy Story are just some of the available choices in this category. However, there’s a problem with such costumes and that is they lose they popularity if the show also lose its popularity. So there’s a chance that your Baby Shrek Costume this year will be still popular next year. But costumes in this category are still cute, nevertheless.

Food Costumes
Food costumes are also very popular for babies during the Halloween season. Infants really look cute as a fruit or vegetable or even a full meal this Halloween. Babies wearing food costumes are really cute and downright adorable. Just don’t bite the babies wearing such costumes!

Costume Classics
If all else fail, there are the ever dependable classic costume ideas for babies. There are lots of costume choices here, like a Cowboy and Cowgirl costume, Prince and Princess costume, Witch costumes, and Toy costumes. There are also movie costumes that fall in this category. Some examples are a Baby Shrek Costume of one of the Disney Princesses or Winne the Pooh and friends costumes.

When choosing a costume for your baby, the sky is virtually the limit. Even if cuteness is a factor in choosing a costume, always make sure that your baby will also be comfortable in his or her costume. Some infants are uncomfortable wearing some costume accessories, like a hat, for example. And also consider the climate in your country when picking a Halloween costume. Of course, it is your baby, so give him or her the best you can give this coming Halloween.

Mickey Mouse And Costumes

Disney cartoons were one of the most favorite shows of mine when I was just a little child. And Walt Disney cartoons still amaze me even as an adult. And, like all other Disney cartoon fans, my favorite cartoon character is none other than Mickey Mouse. I really love Mickey, especially when I was just little. I have many Disney collectibles like a Mickey Mouse figurine and a Mickey Mouse Halloween Costume. Mickey and his friends have really become an important part of our childhood.

Mickey Mouse is the mascot character of Walt Disney Company. In 1928, Mr. Disney and Ub Iwerks created this popular mouse. Mickey’s name was originally Mortimer Mouse, but Lillian Disney, Mr. Disney’s wife, said that it sounded pompous and suggested Mickey instead. Mickey Mouse, which is very popular, was only to be a replacement to Mr. Disney’s old character, Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, which he lost his rights to.

During costume parties, especially during Halloweens, a Mickey Mouse Halloween Costume is really popular especially for children. There are many Mickey costumes that are available to both babies and children that looks good while still being comfortable. Also there are adults that want to be Mickey during Halloweens. And aside from his standard attire, there are also other versions of him like a classic Mickey and Kingdom Hearts King Mickey.

It is really easy to make your own Mickey Mouse Halloween Costume. It can sometimes be a lot cheaper, depending on the materials used, to make your own costume, instead of buying them. You can have it tailor made or sewn by yourself. The most important part of a Mickey costume, however, are his ears. Even without a real Mickey costume, his ears alone will make you Mickey. Fortunately, it is really easy to make his ears. You just need a headband and two round black things. There are also Mickey ears available at your local or online costume store.

A Mickey Mouse Halloween Costume, especially during Halloweens, is really popular. It is perfect for both Trick-or-Treating or costume parties. So if you want a fun and popular costume this Halloween for you and your family, Mickey Mouse and his friends can be your choice.
