Beatnik Rarity

My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic

Season 2, Episode 9 "Sweet Elite"

Worn at: Sakuracon 2012


This was basically a shitty closet cosplay. One of my friends suggested it to me in a chat. Since it was fairly simple and I was fairly into MLP at the time, I decided to do it. I already had the beret and jeans and I bought a black turtleneck and some black flats.

I decided NOT to go with a horn and ears because it goes against the meaning of gijinka. I got a little bit of shit for this at the con.

The wig was a disaster. I ordered it of ebay from a seller I had used before, but it got here a couple weeks before the con and I couldn't return it or get a new one without dropping the cosplay for Sakuracon all together.
