News Flash:
I am such a GEEK!!!
As is Justin. Which is why our marriage is awesome!!!!!
So, this weekend, we went to Comicon.
But, before I get into that, I have joined Skirtember challenge. This challenge is to wear a dress, skirt, or dress-shirt every day in September. Well, I didn't know about this until the 3rd. So, that day I dressed in a skirt for work (luckily I wore a skirt to church like I always do on Sundays).
Sunday, 9/1, I wore a black and cream maxi skirt, cream skirt, and a black wrap.
Monday, I didn't know and I traveled on a plane home.
Tues, 9/3 Skirt: old, Socks: old, Tank and Cardigan: old, Shoes: Sole Envy
Wednesday, 9/4 Shirt: Papaya, Skirt: BYU Bookstore, Tights: H&M, Shoes: Payless
Thursday, 9/5 I wore a pink dress with a brown shirt and tights.
Friday 9/6 Skirt: Black and cream maxi, Doctor Who fan shirt.
Sat 9/7 I wore a costume for Comicon--no skirt.
Sunday, 9/8 Skirt and shirt: WalMart, Tights: H&M, Shoes:Payless
So, onto Geekdom!!!
Friday, we went after I was done teaching. Saturday, we dressed up. We saw a lot of cool costumes and some awesome booths. We went to a few panels, but honestly, some were boring and all were packed. Salt Lake City didn't expect this many tickets to be sold. It was jam-packed on Saturday--over 50,000. They eventually stopped letting people in. We hung out with a few friends.
I dressed up as Rogue, based off the cartoon, X-Men: Evolution.
I think I pulled it off. Here are some other pictures from ComiCon!

haha!! You guys had fun, and Justin looks very Wolverine-ish indeed! My Mom unofficial nickname is rogue because she had dark hair and very distinctive gray streak right in front, lol!
ReplyDeleteGreat job with the skirt outfits!!
She was my favorite (besides Nightcrawler) from the cartoon, and the easiest to do.

So I found your blog on the Skirtember challenge and I am sooooo jealous about comicon. I absolutely know I could convince my husband to go, but we would need one to come to our midwest area!
ReplyDeleteIf one does, definitely go! So much fun!
