Carbon Costume

Ino Yamanaka (voiced by Ryoka Yuzuki and Colleen Villard) is a character from the Naruto series.  Ino is one-third of the iconic Ino-Shika-Cho formation and is a member of Team 10 under Asuma Sarutobi.  She is a friend and romantic rival of Sakura Haruno.  Ino has long blonde hair she wears in a ponytail and pale blue eyes.  In the original series, she wears a purple uniform with white arm warmers and bandages wrapped around her upper legs.  In Shippuden, her style updates to include chainmail arm and leg guards and a crop top.  You can use a cosplay set for either version of Ino’s uniform, or build your own.  Whatever you decide, you’ll also want to purchase shinobi sandals in either blue or black, a long blonde wig, and accessorize with a kunai pouch and kunai.  If you DIY your costume, don’t be afraid to take a pair of scissors to whichever skirt you choose to make it look more like Ino’s from the series.
