Cosplay Feature: MissBriSolo's Angela!

When I shared off MissBriSolo's work last month, it was hot on the heels of her just finishing her cosplay of Angela based on the character's Marvel Rivals design. At the time, she was the latest character added in with the new season and man was I stoked to see Bri's finished look on the character. Not just on the fact that Angela was poised to fit the Vanguard/Tank role, but Bri herself has done some insane work with fitness. Thus she felt this was an awesome opportunity to show off her work in the cosplay. Angela as a character was repurposed/retconned to be part of Thor's family after originally appearing in the Spawn comics back in the 90s. There's your quick history lesson, let's jump into the cosplay! Starting off, Bri has a head-guard at the very top that looks much like a crown. Wings extend outward on each side and it travels down the face slightly. Then Bri has a gorgeous orange/red wig for her hair.

Product Review: Chocobo Kigurumi by Rarity's Boutique!



You can check out the last Review I did on Rarity's Hoodie here!

See at first, I was planning on grabbing another Eeveelution Hoodie from my friend Lisa Lou Who over from her shop Rarity's Boutique. Then Final Fantasy XV started to roll around and she quickly jumped in on the hype train once the game was released. Prior to that, was when she rolled out new Kigurumi's in the form of FF staples like Moogles, Cactuars and of course the Chocobo. Out of these options, the last one intrigued me the most since that also was done in various colors. I can't tell you how excited I was when I finally placed an order for one. My initial order was a full size kigu in a light blue color. Lisa's Kigurumi's come in 2 distinct sizes. There's the full one I mentioned which pretty much covers everything, then what's known as the "bloomer" style. That version you can see at the top image, basically the kigu ends just about near the kneecaps.

It arrived last Wednesday in typical Rarity fashion. That means wrapped up like a present with a cute flimsy bow to top it all off. Unfolding it was when I started laughing pretty hard, the full size version was ordered but I CLEARLY underestimated that description. I can easily slip into the kigu with 1-2 buttons undone. By the way, brown was the second color used for the cuffs down at the feet and buttons. You'll also notice that the color isn't light blue. Lisa had messaged me close to the ship date with another option to go darker since she had the color in her inventory.

Naturally, I went that route since I enjoy dark blue more than the light blue advertised on her site. I also wasn't expecting the hood part to have extra fabric packed inside which made it feel like a pillow was resting on top of my head. I imagine if it wasn't there, the hood would cover my eyes XD. The top of the hood is decorated with wide blue eyes and the Chocobo's distinct orange beak. The arms at the ends have an opening to encase your hands like a mitten. This gives off the look that you have feathers for hands. The size also has the fabric have extra area to it pretty much everywhere. With Fall arriving and the weather getting colder, I couldn't have received it at a perfect time <3. If you're looking to order one yourself I would recommend it wholeheartedly!

Below is a link to Rarity's Facebook Page. You can find her store link there but at the moment she's currently not taking any commissions! Thank you so much Lisa for doing a stellar job as always on my kigurumi! Love you bunches :D
