I turned myself into a Candy Cane Anime Girl! | Christmas Cosplay Vlog - Video

Who doesn't love a good cosplay to celebrate the festive season! I'm not going to lie, I love celebrating Christmas and just the vibe that happens at the end of each year. It is a time for reflection and excitement for the New Year!

Most years, I also make a holidays inspired outfit and this year it was Peppermint Candy Cane Girl by Sunset Dragon (@_sunsetdragon_ on instagram) - I remember seeing this design and just knowing, deep down, one day I would make it. 2023 was the year!

It was a fun cosplay to make; and the focus was on the fun. I experimented a whole heap, used the stash and just found myself constantly smiling.
After the 5 month stress that was Toph (which I LOVE), it was nice to do a cosplay just for funsies - no pressure for a competition.
