First off we would like to thank everyone who joined us for one of our fandom-inspired panels at Emerald City Comic Con 2018! We took some of our favorite characters and gave some of our favorite people easy-to-wear looks based off of these iconic women. For those who missed it, we wanted to share some of our highlights....

THE BADASS INSPIRATIONS!
First up we have the lovely and insanely talented author, Anne Wheaton, rocking a subtle look inspired by Hippolyta. She spoke of what Wonder Woman means to her and what the film has meant to the world.
Regal. Regal indeed.
Our very own Nerd Misfit, Moe, donned easy waves and soft natural makeup like our favorite woman of wonder. Robyn of Geek Girl Strong received berry lips and rocked her gorgeous natural hair following in the inspirational footsteps of Nakia of Black Panther. Both easy and wearable looks, but still tinged with confidence and fire!
Next up is another Black Panther favorite, Shuri, Princess of Wakanda. This is one mighty princess that we'd love to see more of! For this look, a minimal base and hints of white along the eyes gave nods to this ultimate scene-stealer. Two-Week Cosplay was absolute perfection!!!
Katniss Everdeen is undeniably fierce and practical in her styling. Equally fierce and undeniably sharp and witty, we have Che Grayson, filmmaker and writer. She was given a pinch of makeup and that signature side-swept braid.
Last in the lineup is our dear friend and cosplayer, Ani-Mia. Carrie Fisher as Princess Leia will forever and always be near and dear to our hearts, and Ani-Mia is no different. She holds this character close, so she was given touches and swaths of color to bring the elegance and grace of her ceremonial look to life. Her hair is upswept and her face is accented with mauves and an energetic blush.
Again, thank you to everyone who participated and to everyone that joined us! We can't wait to see you all again soon. To those who missed us, don't worry! There will be more to come!
