Style Saturday: Festive Fashion

This style Saturday is one I have been dying to do as it is inspired by one of my favorite movies of the year, Frozen. I know a lot of you are probably sick to death with the entire hype around Frozen and I must admit it is getting a tad old but alas the […]

Cosplay and Body Image

I am an advocate for cosplay equality. Cosplay equality emcompases everything, ability, age, gender, race and size but with the Irish con season in full-swing, I’ve noticed the same problem popping up and it’s not just isolated to Ireland – cosplay and size.
