Megacon Recap

On the 15th of this month, Laura and I set off to Carlisle. One quick train journey, and a taxi later we made it to the event! 

How surprised were we to find out that the lovely Katie (Pai-thagoras) and Chris (Christeeny) were also there, they're absolutely lovely so it's was wonderful to see them again :)

We decided to only take a simple display set up with us, as we thought it was just going to be a slow event, where we could chat to stall holders. As per usual we split the table, Laura didn't take any larger pieces so I got more space. You can tell that we're having issues on how we want our display to look, we're working on something new for MCM Scotland in September.

Mostly covering the grids so you can see through, and I think I'll be moving my earrings to the rotating display or a pin board.

But back to the convention, wow! It was a smashing success for me! I actually did better here than at Sunnycon this year, which was a massive shock. Everyone was lovely, the stallholders and the con-goers were all happy to be there, it was such a nice environment to be in, even if I was a little bit sick during the day. A few pretty purchases from the stall next to me made everything better!

One of the stalls closer to the entrance caught my eye, sadly I don't wear heels but I was gushing over these so much!

Game of Thrones Iron Throne Shoes

Harry Potter Gryffindor and Slytherin shoes!

Perfect for any geek!

We're off to MCM Glasgow in a few weeks so hopefully I'll do a little update about that :)

Hello! Sunnycon 4 was at the end of June (I'm running behind!) and I thought I'd do a little post about it.

It was windy.

Very windy.

But it was a great event, Sunnycon always is, just unfortunately due to the strong winds the gazebos were breaking throughout the weekend! But it just threw some excitement into the works. 

Laura (Goffietwerb/Gremlinloquacious) was sharing a table with me again, we really need to start getting 2 in a row instead! On the Saturday we wore Lolita for the first time! I recently bought 2 OP's and a jsk, and I created a simple coord :)

I'm wearing Bodylines Squirrel Party OP, perfect for newbies!

We went to the after party on the Saturday night, and might of had a little bit too much fun :D

It was an absolute blast to do this event and we'll be back next year!

Well hello!

So Sunnycon is approaching fast now, with just over 3 weeks to go preparations are well in the works! There will be new products to grab there, my Legend of Korra jewellery, available as a set or individually, Attack on Titan, new Legend of Zelda products, Rupees, chests and more. 

I'm very much looking forward to showing it all off, although it has been difficult! Goffietwerb aka Laura, is joining me again for this years event, we did it together last year too, but we decided on the day on our stall set up. Now we're 2 steps ahead and have sorted out displays and done a mock set up, nothing can go wrong right??

Look at the preperation!

I'll be bringing a long my first lolita coord to wear on the Saturday, Bodylines Squirrel Party dress in blue, its so pretty! Something nice and light to wear, for Sunday its either Pam from Archer or normal clothing as it was roasting last year!

Next year Sunnycon is moving to Newcastle and I am absolutely excited and happy for the Sunnycon team to get this far! Can't wait to see what the future holds at this event.

When Business Take's Over

Wow! 

It's been a very long time since I've posted on here. Since... July last year, ouch. I've now started selling online and at conventions, and it has been a wonderful time, I've been to Manchester, Glasgow, London, Birmingham, Dundee and allover the North East England. I wouldn't change it. 

Well other than not having a regular income from a regular job, but fingers crossed for a XMAS temp job :)

This is me and the Charles Bazaar stall at LFCC this year, and holy heck, it was amazing. People were lovely there, the guests were fantastic, and we had a great stall next to us. Just, I do wish I could drive, lugging all of the stock, displays and barely having room for clothing is a little bit of a nightmare, but this can be something to aim to do in the future.

My next plan is to update this blog, hopefully merge it with my Charles Bazaar tumblr account and work on general social media, if anyone has any hints or tips, please let me know :)
