Making the Grand Duchess Anastasia gown 🥹✨ The final gown in the series is complete! 4 years of work making all of her outfits in the movie has culminated to this last dress and I’m so happy with how it turned out. Though it’s never been my favorite outfit of hers, it’s still so special to bring it to life 💛#anastasia

Wow! I tell you what, wow!! Trying on my Grand Duchess Anastasia cosplay for the first time 🥹🥹 though I of course try on every piece individually many many times while I’m making a costume, I always save my reaction for when I put it all together with the hair and makeup and it truly makes my childhood dreams come true every time ✨

The way this isn’t even slightly an over exaggeration of comments I’ve gotten 1,000 times in the last few years

New ren faire layering piece unlocked 😍😍 I’m obsessed with the gold mirror finish on these scales and was lowkey mesmerized seeing how they hit the light in this video 😂 I made a similar pair of sleeves for a friend year ago so it was finally time to make a set for myself! As always I get all of my supplies from @TheRingLord Official LAURENDOESCOSPLAY will save you some cheddar and helps to support me 🥰

I’ll be at @gameconcanada today wearing my Elizabeth Swann cosplay! I’m at booth 111 ✨ can’t wait to meet some of you there and have a chance to wear some cosplays new and old 🥰 #elizabethswann #potc

Category is: Pirate weekend at the raniassance faire 🏴‍☠️ What if Elizabeth Swann became the pirate king just a little bit earlier in the story?? 👀 I was honestly kind of terrified to wear my Elizabeth cosplay at the faire for fear of damaging it but it held up like a champ!! Also perfect timing with the news that the original trio might make a comeback in Pirates of the Caribbean 6??????

Bark like you want it 🐶 Canon Link and Zelda @Alyson Tabbitha

We don’t see eye to eye 😔 Tag your short bestie they need love all the way down there W @The_eco_cosplayer 💛💛

Making my Twilight Princess Link cosplay in one week!! After some super last minute planning, I decided to go to San Diego Comic Con this week and whip out a Link cosplay to duo with @Alyson Tabbitha who did the most beautiful Zelda 😍 I was SO excited to make this costume since it had so many different elements to work on. You know I can’t turn down a costume with sewing, leather, foam props, AND chainmail 😂 I can’t wait to tell you more about my SDCC week but I wanted to share this build video 🥰 Wig styled by Alyson Tabbitha ✨ Pattern for the tunic and undershirt from @NDLWRKshop !

This is just a dream ✨ More Anastasia bc everyone had their knickers in a twist on the last video that they couldn’t see enough of the reveal 😂 One of the most important factors to me when recreating these dresses has been what I’ve always called: the ✨Anastasia sparkle✨ the way sparkle is animated in this movie has always been so mesmerizing to me and I’m really proud of how it looks here 🥹

Happy pride month! 🌈 So thankful for this community and all of the light, creativity, happiness, and joy that has come with being able to express myself around so many amazing people. Now more than ever may we come together to continue the fight for the safety and freedom that everyone deserves 💛 I made this bi pride chainmail flag top in 2023 but editing this video reminded me howwww much time i spent on this project 😮‍💨 I have a full tutorial for how to do this weave on my yt channel and all the supplies are from @TheRingLord Official ! LAURENDOESCOSPLAY will always save you some 💰 on your supplies and it’s a great way to support your local bi chainmail girly 😂 #pridemonth

Nailed the assignment though 🙂‍↕️ My Zelda is @Alyson Tabbitha ✨✨✨

Actually kind of messed up that anyone watches the lord of the rings without me 😔

Yall aren’t ready for the Anastasia content I have cooking up! I finished the final Grand Duchess gown which means I’ve officially made all of her dresses 👀 a lot of people missed the reveal when I finished this “shopping in Paris” dress but this was my first time trying it on 🥰

Niche tea alert??
