Cosplay review//Nico Yazawa (Wonderful Rush)

//review by Allison












Whoa, it's been a while, but I'm back to review this lovely Nico Yazawa (Wonderful Rush) cosplay from SkyCostume!!

Packaging 10/10!! 




I'll start off with saying I was super leery about this cosplay. The fact that it was really cheap made me worry that the quality of it would be terrible. Lucky for me, it was the exact opposite!! The material used is fantastic, and the craftsmanship is just as good as any of the other more expensive sellers of this same cosplay.  
Now, there are a few inaccuracies (the sleeves and parts on the side should be light blue), BUT honestly, for the price, I am absolutely okay with that. Speaking of inaccuracies, I actually thought the hat was going to be inaccurate since on their site, it looks like it only has one feather, but it actually had both, so that was awesome!! This cosplay also fit me PERFECTLY. I've actually never had a cosplay fit me as good as this one.


I will say, it did take a bit to get here (though, I'm sure it's only because of the holidays, so no points knocked off for that. Communication with the seller was great though!! They would always get back to me within the day, so a big plus there!!

Overall, I'd give this a 4.9/10!!

PROS: 
  • SUPER LOW PRICE!!
  • Great communication
  • Wonderful craftmaship
  • Fits perfectly!!
CONS:
  • A few inaccuracies  


 I HIGHLY recommend this cosplay!!

Cosplay Review//Mio Akiyama

Hello my darlings! :D I am going to start my very first review with this lovely piece! I purchased this from TrustedDeal which is actually a wholesale website so I was able to grab it for a decent price. Shipping was $38.00 but  the total cost was still under $100.00! //Mio Akiyama Costume





Usually, I  try to make my own cosplays, so shis was my first ever cosplay costume purchase! I was super scared to buy it from a wholesale website but  I love how it ended up! Shipping was faster than expected  so that was also a pleasant surprise. 


I really love the way it was made in two pieces instead of  one, that makes it super easy to put on. The skirt actually has an elastic waist, which is good for me because I wear plus size clothes. Sadly, I couldn't figure out the shirt! It has three ties on it that I had no idea how to adjust so the top kept pulling apart. The design could have been more intuitive. A drawback from a wholesaler but one I can live with.
 The sash around the middle has velcro in the back so you don't actually tie it. The bow has a safety pin hidden on it so you can just fasten it over the back. Both of these features are lovely because if I had to tie it would probably look pretty  ridiculous.


My wig came from ebay, which is where I buy most of my wigs //Mio's Wig!


         This cosplay is super comfortable and extremely accurate to the character, so I'm giving it a 4.9/5. Overall I am in love with it and this is probably my favorite cosplay to wear! The price is $59.99, so it's a pretty great deal! They have all of the K-ON girls' outfits available for the same price so I definitely recommend this seller.

Cosplay review//Tamako Kitashirakawa

//review by Allison










Hello hello, sweethearts!! (: Today I'm here to review this lovely Tamako Kitashirakawa [from Tamako Market] cosplay from the ever lovely cosplaysky~!!

Quite nicely packaged (: Off to a very good start!!


And here is everything right out of the package!! :D


The quality of the outfit itself is super nice!! The material is wonderful, and it's put together quite nicely (no skips in things~). It also fits great (that's always something I'm super nervous/picky about)!! I dunno how fond I am of the ribbon (?) part of it, but that's really nothing too big. I do like how they included hair ties and socks (I also really love the material of the socks)!!


I'm also really happy with the length of the skirt. I've seen a few sellers who have made it shorter, so I was pleased to see that cosplaysky stuck to the way it was designed in the show!!



 I really love how nice the rabbit looks!! ;A;


I received this item super quick [it came in two weeks after I ordered it]. Have to say, I'm beyond impressed with that!! Communication was also super duper excellent!! They were sure to respond within a day every time I messaged them!!



Overall, I'd give this a 4.8/5!! 
PROS:

  • AMAZING processing/shipping time
  • Great communication
  • Wonderful craftsmanship (definitely don't have to worry about it falling apart!!)
  • It includes the socks and the hair ties 

CONS: 
  • The bow is still a little iffy with me (': 

In the end, I absolutely recommend this!!

Review//Himari Takakura cosplay

//review by Allison













Alrighty, so I'm gonna start things off by reviewing a cosplay I purchased from Cosplaysky for Himari Takakura from Mawaru Penguindrum.
//cosplaysky
//Himari outfit



Can I just say, the thing that made me absolutely fall in love with this cosplay was the skirt. The petticoat underneath really sells the cosplay.


My only problem is the fact that the stripes on the shirt are a little thin, but hey, that's just nitpicking.


I ordered this cosplay about two years ago, and even today, it looks just as great as the day I received it. So, with that being said, the quality is fantastic!!






Overall, I'd give the cosplay a 4.9/5!! It fits fantastically, and it really looks like it should, which is always my biggest concern. I was also very pleased with the price [$89.99]//especially since my normal go to place was selling it for around $93. I absolutely recommend this!! (:
