During quarantine, I found a new favorite show: Lucifer on Netflix! I had seen people talking about it a lot, and I was unsure of what to watch one night, so I decided to give it a try. I became obsessed.
The show is about the Devil taking a vacation from Hell to Los Angeles. He meets a detective named Chloe, and they start solving murders together. Lucifer doesn’t hide the fact that he’s the Devil. In fact, he’s known for never lying.
Every character, mortal and immortal, is extremely complex. The storylines are creative and fascinating, with stories and characters woven in from the Bible. I can’t get enough! When I read that Season 6 will be the last, I almost started crying. I guess all good things must come to an end.
One of my favorite characters in the show is forensic scientist Ella Lopez. Even though she has a pretty morbid job, she’s always in a great mood. She’s optimistic, caring, funny, and protective. And she kicks ass at her job. Seriously, everyone at the LAPD would be lost without her.
While I was watching the show one night, I realized that Aimee Garcia and I have pretty similar features. I decided that Ella would be the perfect cosplay!
Ella is known for her witty graphic tees (while I’m quite the opposite), so I ordered this Heavy Metal shirt she wears off Amazon (to be honest, I actually really like it). I wore a light jacket like she does and grabbed some blue gloves. Thankfully, I have more than enough due to the pandemic.
I tried a completely different hairstyle: a high pony with some hair left out in the front. My friends at The Introvert Room said I looked great in it, but I think that style belongs to Miss Lopez. I did some light makeup, put on my cross necklace, and perfected my side smile.
Overall, I am SO happy with how this look came out. Lucifer fans, what do you think?!
