| Princess Peach from Super Paper Mario Wii. I never thought I would ever dress up as someone wearing sooooo much pink! The costs do include wig, shoes, the many meters of fabric used ... and accesories. Finally finished on 21/09/2010! This is the first dress I have ever made, had quite a lot of fun with it. The hardest part of it was the amount of gathers needed on the puff sleeves and waistline. My sewing machine really didn't want that amount of fabric going thru it! Will be fun running round the expo in this! (until I fall over due to high heels!) **Will be returning with Bowser October Expo 2013** | |

Contacts! (Posted 27th September 2010) I've ordered a pair of blue contact lenses, as my eyes are dark brown .. not very peach-like ... |
 |
The wig! (Posted 21st September 2010) Well I bought this wig off Ebay, and it was cheap-ish. |
 |
Crowns! (Posted 17th September 2010) I was a bit bored at work today ... so I thought lets use the facilities here!! |

I remember from last year! I have got some gel insoles and heel protecting things for them, which should help :D
So cute! I look forward to seeing this!
From experience, expect insanely sore feet by the end of the day! Even with gelly insoles (I was peach a couple of years ago and i swear my feet nearly fell off!)
Hehe thanks!
Well if worst comes to worst, I could get bowser to carry me around! XD
