So I have this problem. I'm going to Dragon Con, I don't know if you're familiar with it...

I want to do a different costume every day for four days. Problem?

I'm visually impared. I have glasses. Can't get contact lenses, my family won't let me.

So I have this issue. I can't think of anyone in kingdom hearts who wears glasses.

Here's an interesting question... Who in Kingdom Hearts would be believable with glasses?

I wanted to be Aerith, but just because she's a member of the living dead doesn't mean she has to be visually impared. Now that I think about it, I wonder if I could be Axel... I bet desolving into nothingness would damage your vision if you lived through it.
So how about it, kids. Any suggestions for little old

^Me? I can dye my hair any color, or get a wig if I need to. Oh, and I'm about 5'4, and terribly fullfigured (here meaning slightly more chubby than I should be, particularly in the upper torso and hips).

I have a friend going as Kairi... And it'd be a little like looking in the mirror talking to her with the costume on.

I was just thinking, wouldn't Larxene be belivable with glasses?

Really, you can osplay as anybody you want to, just when your picture is taken, whip off your glasses.

Someday I'm gonna crossplay as out dear Axel, and I wear glasses, I'm just gonna have to get used to taking them on and off for different things.

I've encountered this problem before. I was cosplaying as Sesshomaru from InuYasha one day and I forgot I had on my glasses. And so everyone though I was cosplaying as emo Sesshomaru. But the next day I left my glasses in my hotel room(i had a personal escort...i.e I forced my friend to cosplay as Sora and hold my hand and walk me around.lol) and had a good time as Riku. So don't worry, you can always just take off your glasses when you need to take pictures. Or you can do like I did, just leave your glasses at home or at your hotel room and ask your friend to guide you around.

Oh, my friend has had this problem before. She just took off her glasses when she took pictures because otherwise she's blind. ^^;

That's a pretty good plan. Still haven't made up my mind yet though.

Ugh...Stupid stereotypes...>>

I really don't think glasses with thick frames would suit him. He'd probably look a lot better in a pair with wire-thin frames.

Meh, but that's just me...^^;

I'll have to agree. XP I could totally see him wearing a pair of wire-thin frames while typing up something on a laptop or reading a novel... X3 I like that. o:
