The Night I Make This Broken Ring Yours

So let’s talk about @wondercon Friday! After having Esmeralda’s Red Topsy Turvy/Hellfire dress made almost 3 years ago I was ready to debut her for Wonder Con! I wore traditional Esme last year and was itching to get Topsy Turvy Esme out there! And she left one Hell of an impression this past weekend! ❤️‍🔥💃🏽 #nilissues #wondercon #wondercon2023 #cosplay #disneycosplay #esmeralda #hunchbackofnotredame #djali #madebyme (at WonderCon) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqTw2VtvIXW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Guys! What can I say! @wondercon this year was nothing short of PERFECT! Trust me when I say there will be more posts to come but this one is just gonna highlight this one special moment! Yesterday I got stopped and bestowed “Award Winning Costume 2023”. Something I didn’t even realize I’ve been working towards since I was 14. Serendipitous that it happened while I was wearing Tiana to gain some thing I never knew I needed. I’m ELATED that my hard work is being scene and recognized! And so much so that I was even invited to join the San Diego Comic Con Masquerade! I genuinely think I’m still in shock! Lol Thank you so much Wonder Con for gifting this little lady something that made all my hard work feel seen! #nilissues #costume #cosplay #disneycosplayer #tiana #princessandrhefrog #madebyme #wondercon2023 #awardwinningcostume (at Anaheim Convention Center) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqQouTtJD4v/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Woof, 2022 has been wild. And I’ll be honest, definitely not all in a good way. But big changes have already been set in motion. Seeds planted and here’s to watching them bloom in 2023! Be safe out there guys! 🥂🎆🎇🎊🎉 #nilissues #topnine #cosplay #monsterhigh #clawdeenwolf #disney #beautyandthebeast #belle #newyearseve #bigchanges https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm1v-9mLD4G/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Hey Spooky Kids. I know there’s been a lot of radio silence from me lately. Just letting you all know that I’m finally okay. These last couple months have been incredibly hard. Though I won’t get into all the details publicly. The people who know, know. I took this hiatus for mental health reasons and I’m glad I did. I can’t stress enough how important it is to put your mental health first. And I’ll admit that I wasn’t doing that in any healthy outlets lately. But somehow I’m surviving. I’m persevering, one small step at a time. I’m not only better mentally but physically too. I will get back to creating content soon. My podcast Midnight Tea will be back shortly with new episodes. Stay tuned for that. But till then, please take care of yourselves. Check in with family, friends and loved ones often. Keep it Dark. 🖤 #nilissues #mentalhealth https://www.instagram.com/p/ClcAo4-yTsL/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! 🎃🖤🧡💀👻😈🍡🍬🍫 and Monster High Monday! Today I wanna do a throwback to 12 years ago when I first attempted to cosplay my all time favorite Ghoul, Clawdeen Wolf. Sure, I wasn’t as detail oriented then as I am now with my cosplays but for a first attempt she looked great! This was also the same year @monsterhigh first debuted at San Diego Comic Con that July. Oddly enough I didn’t see their booth that year at con but did see the dolls on shelves at Toys R Us a month later in August of that year and I HAD TO have them. So that Clawdeen doll I’m holding is a 2010 original! I still have her in perfect condition today! Next year in 2011 is when this costume (a little more spruced up) and I made it to Comic Con with some ghouls to say hi to the MH Boo Crew! And from there I knew bigger and better things were coming for me and the Wolf in chic clothing! 💜🖤🐺 @mattel @mattelcreations @garrett_sander @rebecula13 #nilissues #mattel #monsterhigh #timehop #clawdeenwolf #cosplay #monsterhighcosplay #throwback #monsterhighdolls #monsterhighmonday #mhalumni https://www.instagram.com/p/CkYu_hoJP5g/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
