Rue the Rhue: Sakuracon 15 DAY THREE (I wasn't dead.... I promise)

Since we’re almost at Sakuracon-2016 I figured I probably should write up and post the finale of my Sakuraco-2015. -sweats nervously-

(Seriously I am so so so so so so sorry.)

So Here we go… after much much much MUCH ADO

SAKURACON15 DAY THREE— THE FINALEEEEEEE

Sundays are always the most sad for con. Even in the beginning, when we first got up, we knew that con was coming to an end. Usually, I use Sunday as a day to wear my “casual” con wear because we’re not there for as long and there’s not as many people. But… see… I had just bought this phenomenal vest from h.naoto and….

yeah.

Clearly, I didn't try very hard. Shirt, Vest, and Choker-- h.naoto

It didn’t really happen that way. I just couldn’t help but be six hundred feet of fabric and glam.

With my tiny sidekick, of course.

Amanda! Mask and shirt; Mint Neko/ Jacket; Hangry and Angry/ Harness; BCBGMaxAzria

We went ahead and made our rounds.

Stopping in to see our friends.

Buying a bunch of other mercy (mostly pictures and art and other little things). We then wandered around over to the h.naoto booth (of course) to see our humans and double check any last minute merch. We chatted a little and got some great pictures of the magical people at the booth.

I miss her! She's so magical!

Our day, like I said, didn’t have much planned for it. But we did want to go see the the J-Walk Fashion show of Japanese Street fashion. Unfortunately, my camera had serious complications.

But the show itself was really great! It was really cool to get to see different styles of japanese fashion and even more exciting that the participants were people just like the rest of us- passionate about the style and filled with a desire to share something they love. There was obviously a lot of work that went into the show and I was very honored to get to see it.

This is Corissa and she's amazing and super talented! You can find her on Instagram Here!

After the fashion show, we had another treat! A Lolita fashion show that show cased a lot of handmade pieces. It was exquisite! All of the lolitas were just wonderful and it was very inspirational to see. And especially nice to see all different kinds of lolitas.

(Again, so sorry about the quality. I am garbage and so are these pictures.)

By this point, the day was winding to an end. We made our way around and said our good-byes, our ‘See you next year!’. It’s always sad at the end of Con, we have to bid adieu to our friends, both new and old, and we don’t really want to. But there it was.

With one last Selfie of course!

And that was con! The whole event was spectacular and every year that I’m there, I’m always overwhelmed by the amount of love and joy that is packed in to just three days. Although this post is long over due, I want to give a huge, all encompassing THANK YOU to everyone involved. To the staff of the convention, who work so tirelessly to bring us such an event. To all the artists and booth employees who work grueling hours and put up with all of us with smiles and genuine enthusiasm and who bring us wonderful pieces. And to the many magnificent humans I met along the way. Can’t wait for this year. It’s going to be even better! :)

Here are the remanding pictures from the fashion shows!
