Hobbit Cosplay 2015

These are all the pieces to my pretty simple hobbit cosplay.

This was such a beautiful dress! And it is SO well made. It was pretty costly, but it was well worth it. I commissioned it from Brielle from her website: http://briellecostumes.typepad.com/brielles-costume-wardrobe/

Pictures seriously do not do this dress justice. The colors are pretty and the fabrics are really nice quality.

The pipe I got from this store. It’s pretty simple, but I like it and it served it’s purpose. They have many other designs too at their store: https://www.etsy.com/shop/MacQueenPipes

I used the hobbit ears that I bought from Katsucon. It’s so funny because I had seen their store on Etsy (https://www.etsy.com/shop/TheElvenCaravan) and had faved them, but hadn’t bought anything from them until I saw them at Katsucon, lol. I didn’t even recognize that it was the same store, silly me haha.

I got the flower crown from this store: https://www.etsy.com/shop/Eterie

Another thing I had was my brown/green canvas backpack which I think goes with the LOTR theme and time period very well.

FellowshipCloak

I wasn’t able to bring this cloak to HobbitCon in Germany because both the dress and the cloak would have taken up waaaaaaayyyy to much luggage space, but it’s still worth a mention because what’s a hobbit without his/her cloak? Lol. The fabric of this cloak is pretty thin, but I do like the color. Check it out from their Etsy store: https://www.etsy.com/shop/CloaknDragon

As the time goes by, I’ll probably add some more stuff to my hobbit outfit. I definitely know I want to add a leather belt with a sheath so I can have a sword and maybe some potion bottles and leather pouches lol. Also, I want leather gloves. I have mixed emotions about either making invisible shoes or getting bigfoot feet though lol. Bigfoot feet like these from ThinkGeek.com:

I will also be contemplating on putting together a LOTR ranger woman outfit 🙂 or an elven cosplay. I just wish I was elegant enough to even pretend to be an elf lmfao.
