Quote: You can buy a normal, very long belt and alter it. Or you can get a lot of fake-leather fabric and sew one yourself. The dots you can cut out of the same colour material as your belt and stick them on with glue. I hope that helps.
Quote: I've never made a belt before so I'm posting on how I would try it. Get fabric the color of the belt to make the belt, use interfacing on it to make it stiffer like a belt. For the round parts I would use metal studs. (I'm not really sure if those are metal parts but I looked up some cosplayers of her and some of them used metal there) I hope that helps.
thanks a lot guys ^_^

@Enjoy My hell: It's extremely hard to make any good cosplay look good if you tried to go really cheap.
For Sora's costume I would use this material, i can't think of the name, but they use it for like almost business suits and usually comes at $7.99 a yard. It's more expensive, but if you use cotton or something it'll be thin, easily wrinkled, and partially see through (most of the time) hat: I would get a regular old santa hat and dye it black with fabric dye, you may want to remove the white puff at the end and re-attach it later otherwise that'll turn black too. legs: get red ribbon and black knee high socks for the legs, possible glue are tape the ribbon to the socks while wearing them shoes: go to goodwill, get some old shoes and paint them black then paint a white stripe belt: goodwill/salvation army White Fluff: I'd just get a couple yards of it from Joann Fabrics or somewhere
the Bleach costume undershirt: black turtle neck over shirt: v-neck orange shirt, you'll probably have to cut it at the elbows and hem it shoulder pads: cut them out of foam board or something and glue/tape/sew them onto the shoulders. pants: goodwill shoes: goodwill
I know it's cheap that you wouldn't be making it all from scratch, but if you want cheap it's the best way to go.
@Eijay: It all comes down to whether or not you want to be as accurate as possible. If you're not going to be taking off your mask then I wouldn't really bother getting the wig for the character. But if you wanted to using temporary black hair dye may help you out if you pulled it in a bun, just so you'd still look in character if you decided to take the mask off. Don't worry if you're a bit heavier, not everyone looks exactly like their character physic wise.

Veretix I don't know if this belongs here but here it is. I am cosplaying Uniformed China (from Hetalia), i have bought the uniform, and going to make my props, but i'm having some difficulty with his shoes. I was thinking of using my hiking boots, but they are worn down and don't look right for the costume. I need help with getting some shoes that look right but are not expensive. I was thinking of going to Payless to get shoes, but i don't know if they have what i need. Are there any stores that would sell cheap military style boots? Or what should i use as his shoes. Just to make things easier, i don't want to wear slippers. Here are some reference pictures: [x], [x], I'd say for military boots look at a army surplus store or ebay. If that fails then looking at payless or other shoe store wouldn't hurt.
