If I could give you a cup size or two I would...since I have more than I need.

On a more serious note, cosplay should be about fun. Do you have to look exactly like the character? No. I mostly cosplay Eli Wallace from Stargate Universe, because it's simple and easy. If I feel like getting dressed up I pull out my Black Widow dress and dress myself up...and then get asked if I'm Peggy Carter because of the cut of the dress and accessories I use.

I recently did Swerve from MTMTE, which was really all about making the blaster he uses. Am I going to look like a robot who runs a bar? No. Am I going to have fun running around in a Hawaiian shirt carrying a colorful blaster that lights up? Yes, and I did. Find that one costume or piece that you have to have...that when you see it all you can think is 'I need this, I need to make this' and then build the rest of the cosplay around it, but have fun. I was thrilled when I finally put that blaster together, but what was even more fun was seeing how happy it made everyone else. The look of absolute delight on a kid and his dad's face when the kid told me he like my blaster and I asked if he wanted to take a picture of it. The grins on the dealers faces when I asked them to hold it while I get my money out to buy something. The smiles as people told me they liked it and then how those smiles got bigger when I told them it lights up. You don't have to look exactly like the character, just have fun.
