Cosplay Feature: Gray Oranges' Rikku!

Photo by David Ngo I won't ever shy away from writing about cosplays of Rikku's look from Final Fantasy X-2 and Gray Orange did a fantastic job portraying her in both the overall cosplay look PLUS the pose work. Of course I'll get to all that in due time but let's start at the top! It's certainly a cosplay worn for several events and I want to say I first saw this in the overall collection of MAGFest photos back in January of this year. I really love how the multiple braid strands are integrated into the blonde wig for starters. I can't tell if they're either part of the wig itself or the blue headband that's wrapped around. In any case, following this is a red scarf wrapped around Irini's neck before you then get to the yellow bikini top. Here, you can also see orange trim lines as part of the piece. Oh, I forgot to mention that the red scarf actually travels all the way down to her legs. These end points then transition to a yellow/orange gradient!

Small Business Shoutout: Geek Dot Jewelry!



In today's installment of Small Business Shoutout, I go into the more fancy/extravagant side of being a geek. One shop recommended to me is that of Geek dot Jewelry which is spearheaded by Artist/Designer Paul Michael. As the name suggests, high end jewelry is what you'll find. Specifically made and tailored to geeks in mind. Some of their collections range from anime with items like Sailor Moon rings or ones around Dragonball Z. There are others going into the sci-fi area, video games, and then getting more specific with collections around Zelda, Pokemon and Harry Potter. Those that I just listed are a small amount of what you'll find in this shop. The company itself is based in Pennsylvania. There's really lots to choose from that you're bound to find something for that special someone in your life.

Flash Ring for Ladies
Truthfully there's not much else for me to say when it comes to Geek dot Jewelry. You are definitely looking to get an incredibly high quality product. Of course these will be pricey but for special events, they are the perfect gift. Some of their products include a set of engagement rings, Pokeball Rings being an example. There are also other set bundles like the Zora Sapphire set which comes with a ring and earrings. Below I included screenshots of some of my favorite products as I browsed through their website!
