The story was inspired by the costume controversy at RWA last year when Liz and I were accused of dressing up like our characters at the booksigning. (Which we didn't, actually. We just dressed in generic manga inspired outfits.)
Scandalous! ;-) Of course no one at RT would bat an eye. :)
Here's the rundown, in case any of YOU want to become Karma Kittty!
* Cat Ears: From Anime Fest 2007 in NYC - belongs to Liz
* Pink Hair: extensions bought off of eBay. They come in all colors - manic panic sells good ones, too.
* Skirt: Skelanimals brand. Their motto? "Dead Animals Need Love, Too!"
* Tie: Tripp (previously worn at aforementioned RWA event)
* Gold sequin tank top: Filenes Basement - $6.99
* Shirt: Mine - I think it's Express...
* Gold Boots: www.HiHeelia.com
GREAT costume, and amazing boots.
ReplyDeleteI saw your manga outfits at last year's RWA con. They were fab. Why would anyone have a prob with you dressing up as your characters at the booksigning? (scratches head)
