Why Paulina Rodriguez?
After having cosplayed Dani Phantom and Ember McLain, I decided to do a civilian outfit for a character from the show to go with my friend's Danny Fenton costume. I had another friend interested to do Jazz and Sam, so opted for Paulina! Plus she's Latina like myself, so yay! I still want to get a group of the "Mean Girls" from Danny Phantom together, haha! Now that I've updated the look, I seem to be lacking a Danny! :o

About This Costume
In both iterations of this costume, I simply used items that I had on hand! For the first version, I had to hem the sleeves and shirt length and add the white stripes on the sleeves. The leggings were originally white and I dyed them light blue.
As for the second version, The shirt was pretty much ready to go! I just had to add the sleeve stripes again. The leggings were already a great color, and even had other cool features like back pockets! So had to do even less work the second time around, woot woot!
