Step 1: Make your skin blue.
A lot of people tend to use blue tights or even go as far as wearing a full body morph suit to achieve the gorgeous blue skin of an avatar.
If you wish to do this, fine.
However, it doesn't look half as amazing, realistic or striking as using your own skin! Or, you can paint your entire body including your face a vibrant blue colour.
Use a tanning mitt or sponge to get a more even coverage! Try snazaroo paint.
It's clean, easy to apply and the vibrant, long lasting colours are perfect for partying! -

It looks incredibly realistic this way! You can get moonstones and gems bracelets, anklets, anything with leaves or natural designs is great! , If you don't have black hair or it's too short, you can always get a ready braided wig.
It would save you a lot of hassle! String a load of coloured beads onto some braids at the front and attached some feathers onto your earrings! , They are much easier, comfier and more convenient to use than a piece of folded blue fabric. , Bent it in half so you have a gap about an inch thick inside and then wrapped blue material like felt around the wire to create a realistic and possible tail! Paint dark stripes on the end of the tail then attach to the costume! , Remember to get an even, smooth face paint coverage and use a darker colour for the stripes.
The white dots should be tiny and dainty like hers! ,, You can be even portray the personality of Ney'tiri- fierce, independent, wild-spirited, up for anything, bold, fun and brave! , -
