Lolita 30 Day Challenge ♡ 06 : Your absolute number one dream item
This isn’t a very big surprise, my number one dream item since forever has been Angelic Pretty’s print Puppet Circus… Fortunately I was able to purchase the black JSK in 2011. But that doesn’t mean it stopped being my dream print! Haha. There’s still the ivory version that completely haunts me in my dreams.
Lolita 30 Day Challenge ♡ 05 : A picture of yourself before Lolita came into your life
Hmmm… I had been introduced to Lolita around 2005, but didn’t start wearing it properly until late 2007. So have some photos of me around the summer of leaving secondary school and before ‘updating’ my style, haha.

Lolitas of Leeds ♡ february meet up
On february 16th, our lovely Sophie organised a meet up for the lolitas of Leeds with cute crafting and yummy food. The first half of the meet was walking around Leeds with photographers and as a result of that, there are some pretty photos of the gorgeous girls of our community… However, since I wasn’t there for that part I can’t report on it. I joined the group when they were inside the Leeds public library and just about to start crafting.
Lolita 30 Day Challenge ♡ 04: What are the 10 foods that you love as much as Lolita?
I don’t really like this question because it has very little to do with Lolita?!?! But fine, here it goes. Also I’m gonna cheat because I love way too many sorts of food! 하나 Soy yoghurt. Aka Yofu. I have been eating this religiously even before I went vegan. For me, it’s like Davey[ref]Also known as that guy from AFI. Read here.[/ref] came down from the States and was like “Here, my children, this will be the best food: it will be tasty and it will be good for you”. But the good thing is you can eat it whenever. I mean, I basically eat it whenever. I eat it for…
Lolita 30 Day Challenge ♡ 03: 10 things you hate about Lolita
einn ❤ DRAMAAAAAAA! Online, real life, old, new, warranted, unwarranted… It’s tiring. tveir ❤ Having to go to the toilet when not at home, and worse, when on periods. Hate it so much! [I kind of hate this regardless of what I wear, but, whatever.] þrír ❤ When things don’t want to stay where they need to be. Aka wigs sliding off, socks going down, eyelashes coming loose, bla bla bla. fjórir ❤ Unnecessary strictness on some parts, and lack of creativity. It’s a street fashion. Not a contest. Have fun! Online it’s certainly not a trend to be very experimental… and that’s a pity. fimm ❤ HEAT. I can take cold, but when it’s…
Lolita 30 Day Challenge ♡ 02: 10 things you love in Lolita
een I love the escapism. Dressing outside of the norm is a form of escaping the dreary ‘normal’ contemporary society, and having meet ups is a form of escaping mundane life. Tied with this is the historical part of Lolita, e.g. wearing Classic or visiting special locations. I never wish I could’ve been born in earlier eras, I always wish that people from this era just put as much effort in their appearance/lifestyle. I love hoopskirts and corsets and bloomers and pettis and lace and colours. But of course because it’s actually reality, that is the best. ;) twee The feelings you get…When finally finding something you’ve been hunting for years. When wearing your dream dress.…
Lolita 52 Challenge ♡ 03 & 04
What’s in my closet, but I haven’t worn yet! This is a hard one, because I don’t really own many Lolita things I haven’t worn yet. Mostly when you have things you haven’t worn yet, it’s because they’re new… but I haven’t bought anything in a while and even so, most of the times when I buy something, I wear it in the following days! I think the only brand items that I haven’t really worn ‘out’ yet, are pairs of socks [boring] and one top [also boring]. So I found two items that aren’t necessarily Lolita, but are two pieces I’ve owned for a while that are a little…
Lolita 30 Day Challenge ♡ 01: 10 things about your Lolita bubble
OKAY OKAY I know I haven’t been keeping up with the 52 Challenge but I will soon, I promise. It’s just that my friends on Facebook have all started to do the 30 Day Challenge and I once started it but never finished… so I thought, if I post here, maybe I’ll make myself finish it! Here goes! I did the first few days on my livejournal back in July 2011 – let’s see how much has changed! un ❤ old text: It was a very conscious decision to start wearing Lolita – but then again, it must have been like that for everyone? I got into Lolita through the FRUiTS book,…
Davey Havok Day ♡ 2013
Thursday the 14th of February was a special day. I already posted about it the week before, but in case it slipped by: it was time for the annual DAVEY HAVOK DAY~! I started my day travelling back up North after spending 24 hours in London for the Kyary concert… And was happy to see a rainbow on the way! During the 4,5 hour trip, I drank a pink[ish] drink, and listened to ALL THE AFI on my iphone, which coincidentally spanned the whole bus trip! The track I was listening to when I took this picture is a b-side and it’s one of my favourite ones. When I arrived…
Kyary Pamyu Pamyu ● きゃりーぱみゅぱみゅ ♡ 100% KPP Tour ♫ London
Two weeks ago, I went down to London to see Kyary Pamyu Pamyu or きゃりーぱみゅぱみゅ for her 100% KPP Tour. So on Wednesday morning, I spent 4,5 hours on the bus. Because I decided to handmake some new things to wear… and I don’t have a sewing machine currently, I had to finish some trimmings on the bus :D When I arrived in London, I first strolled around a little bit, visited shops, like the Disney store… haha. I didn’t buy anything, surprisingly! The funny thing is that the first thing I did was run into a little café because I really needed to use a toilet [the buses here don’t…
Publication in Marie Claire
Hiii world! I have fun news! You can find me and some of my lolita friends in the September issue of Marie Claire magazine!! The magazine is reporting on the spring edition of Hyper Japan, which I visited with Ash earlier this year. I still have to write my own report, but it’s okay because apparently magazines also take months. Haha. At least now I feel a little more inspired to hurry up ;) Let’s take a look at the pages of the magazine! Page 90: Girls’ World “Performer Ruth and J-pop fan Lizzie at the UK’s biggest celebration of Japanese culture” Page 91: Living Dolls “British girls obsessed with…
