<\/p>\nSo, as you all know, I have a deep love for video games. A very deep love. Specifically for Nintendo games. I live and die by Nintendo. Every day I wake up and forget to charge my Nintendo systems, and then get really upset when I cant play pokemon at midnight. It’s an endless cycle- but its special, and it’s a part of me.<\/p>\n
Anyways, for prom, I really want to do something that is very…. me. Something that represents me as a person. Something that represents me as a nerd who doesn’t have much of a life outside of the virtual world. Me as a cosplayer. I essentially want a dress that could somehow captivate my entire world.<\/p>\n
I began thinking.<\/p>\n
“Kerri, you can modify anything. why not modify a dress to fit your needs.”<\/p>\n
therefore, I came to the conclusion that my dress will be inspired by ……<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Princess Zelda!<\/p>\n
(without the sword)<\/p>\n
I plan on modifying a white dress to fit her style. I’m thinking of finding some type of gold twill\/bias tape to sew along the bottom edges, and then either handsew in some type of lace, or embroider the details.<\/p>\n
Of course, i’ll be able to use my own hair. Very happy about that.<\/p>\n

UPDATE:<\/p>\n
I began writing this a few weeks ago, and I wanted to update this because I found something that worked well. I searched across many many cosplay sites to find a decent dress, but they all seemed to use rather cheap fabrics, and the ones that didn’t use cheap fabric were crazy expensive.<\/p>\n
I went on Facebook, and went to the buy\/sale\/trade pages for cosplay (which actually exist! and i probably shouldn’t spend too much time on them,,,, that could be quite disastrous)<\/p>\n
Long story short, I was able to get a pretty good prom dress for a pretty good price! its a bit big on me right now, but ill be able to take it in! I’ll be sure to update you guys on the progress of the dress as i work on it.<\/p>\n
I know its a bit early, but, I’m really excited! This is one of those things every teen movie focuses on, so it has to be pretty memorable. If it’s got a scene in high school musical, it has a place in my life. Maybe that’s not the right way to live ones life by, but it works for me!<\/p>\n
