    About

    Hi, I’m Mallory!

    I love Dandie’s marshmallows with rice milk chocolate, Autumn, and musical theatre. Catch me curled up with a good book and one (or both) of my cats on my lap in any downtime I can sneak. Oh, and chances are I probably was just at Disneyland.

    I am a content creator of many mediums, but may be most well-known from my YouTube channel (malararyofsunshine) where I have been regularly posting videos since March of 2008. I currently upload bookish, beauty, and lifestyle videos.

    Outside of my YouTube channel I am a professional makeup artist; specializing in film and runway, a cosplayer, an avid reader, an ice cream a-holic, and I have a Muggle job as a social media manager.

    Born and raised in the beautiful, upper-left corner of the Pacific Northwest I am a Washingtonian through and through. (We have really good water. 💧)

    Since 2008 I’ve been dreaming about publishing a book of my poetry and this year I am finally making that dream a reality. Thanks to the support of all my lovely patrons over on Patreon I am currently in the design phase of my first, self-published book of poetry.

    a lil highlight reel of my espeon eeveeloution jes a lil highlight reel of my espeon eeveeloution jester costume for the Feast of Fools weekend at @washingtonfaire!

the hat is the part of the costume i’m happiest with because it was a cute, easy to wear hennin and it made me so recognizable because of the shape matching the ears so well! (i followed @drawingsbynicole’s pattern and tutorial!)

we gave out “canst though catch them all?” cards and had a scavenger hunt for people to find us all and get an ultimate, group trinket if they did. it was so fun! people got really into it. thank you @gingersnark for making the cards and @tays_cosplays for making the wooden trinkets! (i didn’t take good video of either but Ryan has a full vlog up on her page!)

and as always, go check out the other eevees—everyone looks stunnin!
