stuff I'm not entirely embarrased to have worn...
So, I think an introduction is in order...

I'm Alette, a 23 year-old cosplayer from Finland. I am currently studying advertising at the art academy here in the city of Turku. I have been cosplaying since 2007.
In the beginning I did really simple costumes: most of the parts I already owned, my wigs were bad and I didn't really pay that much attention to detail, but then again most people start out this way, right?
I have however, made some costumes I am pretty proud of in he past. I might write something about them occationally, but mostly this blog will be about upcomming projects (I'll propably make a list of projects I'm working on in the next post). I'll use this blog to get in touch with other cosplayers and share my experience while I'm learning from others. I love talking about cosplay and I started this blog partly becuase I wanted to comment on all the lovely cosplay blogs I'm currenlty following as well :)

I live in Finland and talk finnish, but my first language is actually swedish. I'll be writing this blog in english, simply because it's a language that most people understand now a days, plus I think my english has gotten a bit rusty lately and I wan't to be as fluent as possible. Feel free to comment in any of the three languages I speak, though :)

Also nonexcistent design is nonexcistent. I will get to the layout of this blog as soon as I get a deacent header made. It's embarrasing for an art director in the making to have a shitty looking blog!
