San Japan Sinister 6

The sixth year of San Japan was August 16, 17, 18 and it was my third year going! I think its about time I start going to other state cons! One reason is because this year was kind of lame, and the second reason is waiting until the next year takes too long haha.

I don't really have much to say of the con, unfortunately. There weren't really that many amazing cosplays and I only went to one panel and didn't care for it.
I'm hoping that next year will be better!

Here's what I wore on August 16.

My dress is Elpress L's "Garden's Capulet" and all the accessories are from Taobao as well. I had originally planned to wear some wristcuffs but I guess I didn't read the listing right and was sent flowers that you can pin onto wristcuffs.

On August 17, I cosplayed as Misaki Mei from Another. I don't really have any "good" pictures of it although I did get my picture taken throughout the day, I haven't been able to find any anywhere!

Under the cut I'll have pictures we took of cosplayers, pictures from the lolita fashion show, and a few more pictures of myself and my friends!

KERA August 2013: My favorite pages!

I remembered to scan the cover this time hehe!

Go behind the cut to see Kyary's photoshoot, printed yukatas, and stained glass dresses!

July 15 AKA Day of Bey

Last month I was blessed enough to go to a Beyonce concert! Trying to get tickets for that event was probably one of the most stressful moments of my life; I almost didn't even get one! I was waiting at my computer for them to go on sale and after constantly refreshing the page it let me through. I was able to grab two tickets but forgot to add a parking pass, so when I went back to add it again they were all gone! I had to keep refreshing and entering captchas and at this point I was in tears trying to find tickets for both of her Texas shows haha. I ended up successfully grabbing one and in turn, went to see her by myself.

Matt and I went to Houston for the weekend and did touristy things as I'd never been there before!

We went to the Galleria as soon as we got there, it was so cool! There was an ice skating rink inside and so many stores! I wanted to go into the Kate Spade store but I always feel really awkward going into nice stores like that and not buying anything hehe.
After walking around there, we went to Chinatown. Its like you're in a completely different part of the world (not that I've ever been to China or anything) but all the writings on the signs and buildings were all in chinese, all the food and pictures in the windows, not to mention the people! I'm pretty sure I was the only brown girl there haha. We went into Fit (a japanese convenience store) and I wanted to buy everything!

I accidentally applied a skin whitening filter lol

Read on to see pictures of what I bought, and of course, more purikura!
