That's cute.

A questionnaire:
Do you (anyone) ever find that dressing like yourself gets cosplay fotografers?

Does dressing like a character from Bleach even count as cosplay?  I can see someone cosplaying the characters from the ParaKiss manga without actually using the same clothes seen in its pages.  I am sure the Bleach thang counts in some circles, but to me it's really an homage to the style.  Wear Bleach cosplay and *bam* I might as well say you are wearing Anna Sui's rtw collection from Spring 2001.

I'm just a wandering shade.  Anyway, cosplay culture is so distinctly 'fan' that I don't feel I could cram myself into it.  I really feel that a costume made up of a normal sweater and jeans from f*sk Hina or school girl whatever as an excuse to be stylish is lame.

If you really dig that style and agree that it's your look, then dress that way everyday.  That is my personal opinion, and I stick by it because there are so many cool individuals out there who really do feel the essence of dress-up and don't invoke it just for a fictional person that someone else created.  You gotta be your own story.
