Description Bad shot, I know (Ignore the mess that's my kitchen xD). But there are limited full-length mirrors in my house and everyone else is asleep, so no face either. I'll put up a better one soon.

By the way, the shoes do have heels- probably 3 inches or so. You just can't see it from the front.

Okay, so the opinions I'd like are:

*I know it's not 100% accurate by any means, but is it good for a first time?

*Do I need a wig? They're expensive, but I want to be accurate and/or recognizable. For this shot I just put my hair up quickly in the pigtails (it's still a bit wavy, though, I'll straighten it in a better shot), so yeah.

*Do I need any more jewelry or anything like that? I only have one cross necklace on, and I'm considering a black choker or triple cross necklace as well.

*Anything else you think this is missing?

Thank you in advance! I'll post an actual decent picture (my mom's a somewhat good photographer) with my face some time tomorrow.

EDIT: Damn, I look kinda fat, since my hips are small e.e At least the dress flares...

Alrighty~ I really like how this turned out. I think that it's very well done. And you don't have to get a wig. MANY Misa cosplayers don't even if their hair color isn't blond.

Basically. Yes you should straighten your hair and such, here is an example of my groups Misa. she is wearing a wig but none the less as long as the outfit is gothic and frilly it works : [link] [link] [link] [link] [link] ~
Anyway, great first cosplay
Our misa only has one peice of 'jewerly' unless you count...gloves or that fluffy pink thing in one picture. She has her rosary. so one cross necklace is perfectly fine i think.
Hope I gave...help?~

AWESOME!
So, are you cosplaying as misa instead of shiloh?
and I was able to tell you were misa right away, you probably don't have to worry about a wig.
And you no look fat D:< why would you think so? :/

Sankyuu~ 8D
Yeup. Most of Shilo's stuff would've been from online, and I don't particularly like that ;A;
Meh. I'unno bout the wig. xD;
Cause of my waistt. It's big-ish, and I'm pretty sure my hips are smaller than my bust TwT

Okay, so you won't need the boots?
And if you do get a wig, make sure its a long blonde one you can put in pigtails but isn't already put in pigtails, otherwise you can't use it for other cosplays if you need to.
And You look fine. If your measurements real bother you so much, get some measuring tape and figure it out for sure. -.-"

Yep, I won't need 'em.
I know~ I think even the ones specifically made for Misa don't usually come with the pigtails in, either.
I have measured it. xD

Cause self photos + that giant thing of a camera = no face D: Face shall be included soon~

Haha, thanks~ and there's no way I'd wear that to school, I'd feel way to out-of-place. At a con, though... that's another story~ C:
