Day 11 of the Lolita Challenge!

Hi everyone! I'll get straight into this post with no messing around!

Day 11 of the Lolita Challenge

A day of your lolita life in pictures

So today I decided to go into my local town with my best friend, Alice.

Here's a picture of me before I went into town. It was raining for a little while so I chose a water-proof print and brought an umbrella with me. I'm ever so practical, aren't I?

I needed to go to the fabric shop to buy some material to make a bag I'm planning to make tonight (I'll post a picture of it if all goes well). So here's a picture of me in front of it!

Next we ate lunch on an old war monument up a back street of town.

Here's a picture of a gingerbread man Alice bought - she's too shy for me to take a picture of her, although I wanted to!

Next we went to a department store and here's me standing outside of it.

Finally - here's a photo of me just about to get on the bus to go home. It was a great day and here's the outfit rundown in case you're interested~

Mini hat: handmade by me

Skirt: Angelic Pretty

Accessories: Angelic Pretty

Cardigan: BTSSB

Blouse: Metamorphose

Socks: Angelic Pretty

Coat: Hell Bunny

Bag: Hello Kitty

Shoes: (you can't see them, but never mind) Accessorize

Thanks for reading! Please look forward to day 12!

Day 8 & 9 of the Lolita Challenge!

So, now I have to think of ten songs which inspire me for lolita, and none of them are going to be classical. In fact, I should think all of them are going to be Japanese - the songs just sound so cutesy and nice in Japanese!

Here goes~

Day 8 of the Lolita Challenge

10 songs which inspire you for lolita.

1. Ponponpon by Kyary Pamyu Pamyu - a song, which despite being fairly annoying (but catchy!) makes me think of cute stuff.

2. Still Doll by Kanon Wakeshima - a solemn, calm song which makes me think more of gothic lolita than sweet. But it's a great song, what can I say!

3. Yume no Kuni by MOON kana - I love this song! It's so cute and bouncy and happy. It not only cheers me up, but really gets me in the mood for lolita!

4. Dearest by Buddy Holly - it's just such a sweet song, and lolita really is the thing nearest to my heart.

5. Starless Night by Olivia - a really lovely calm song, it's so great to listen to when you're getting ready!

6. Super Bass by Nicky Minaj - I really love this song, and I have no idea why it inspires me for lolita, but it just puts me in a really good mood for some reason. Anyway, it's a great song... If you ignore the swearing.

7. Fascination by Alphabeat - another upbeat, bouncy song which puts me in the mood for lolita! It's well worth a listen.

8. The Opening song to Tokyo Mew Mew - a cutesy, girl tune which I love!

9. Kuroi Torikago by Kanon Wakeshima - yes, another Kanon Wakeshima song, but it's lovely, and seeing as she's a lolita-inspired musician I deemed it appropriate.

10. Finally - I Like You by Kagamine Rin of Vocaloid - such an adorable song, who can't love it? And so perfect for lolita, I think.

So I was wrong, not all of them are Japanese, but I love every single one of those songs and hope you'll give some of them a listen!

Day 9 of the Lolita Challenge

10 things you will never do in lolita

This question could be interpreted in two ways - the '10 things in the lolita fashion I will never do' or 10 things I will never actually physically do whilst wearing lolita. So I'm going to do half and half!

1. Join Loli_Secrets - I'm sorry to everyone who uses this community, but making fun of people isn't my idea of fun! It just doesn't seem right, so sorry.

2. Sell a dress, for example, for more than I paid for it on the egl comm sales - again, this doesn't seem right in my eyes and I don't think people should try and make a profit.

3. Wear Moi-Meme-Moitie! Sorry to all who love the gothic beauty of Moi-Meme-Moitie but I don't think gothic really suits me, although the gothic style itself is beautiful and elegant.

4. Make a lolita vlog - I'm just too shy! And I look very stupid on camera... And my voice is annoying...

5. Look down on people for wearing Bodyline or replicas - I personally really like Bodyline, despite being a burando girl at heart (mainly AP) and I think everyone should be able to wear lolita in spite of financial situations! Loli is for all to enjoy in my opinion!

6. Sit on grass - grass stains! God forbid!

7. Kill someone. Not that I'd ever do this anyway (being the law abiding citizen that I am), but I wouldn't like to try to get blood out of a dress.

8. Cook or bake - it would be terrible to get flour or whatever on your dress!!

9. Go to a pigeon/bird infested place - I am always the one who gets pooed on in cities, and I'd never risk my clothes perfectness in such a place.

10. Go to the seaside or beach - sand everywhere in my loli stuff - no thanks!

Wardrobe Post and Day 7!

I was planning to do a wardrobe post on here by itself, but in the end, realised that there was no point doing that, since I'd already done one on EGL!

The link is here! But since then I have added two new items to my wardrobe - a pair of Metamorphose bow otk socks (I couldn't find a stock picture so you'll have to imagine them!) and this AP ring, as well as the headbow I mentioned which hasn't arrived yet:

And then for the next part of this post!

Thank you for reading, and goodbye for now~

I fell out with blogging... But I'm back!! & Day 5

Hi everyone! I'm so sorry I've taken such a long hiatus! It hasn't been an internet hiatus, just a blogging one, I'm afraid. I know I have very few readers, but I just want to get back into blogging, for myself really if no one else.

I may fall out of love with blogging again, who knows, but I'll try to make it a weekly thing, rather than over-working myself. Firstly, I will continue with the Lolita Challenge and then probably do a wardrobe post!

Lots of things have occurred in my lolita world since my last blog post! My wardrobe has grown considerably, but I'll save that for the wardrobe post. And my latest purchase was only this morning, where I bought the Angelic Pretty Cherry Berry Bunny headbow (which I had been frantically searching for for months) to match my jumperskirt in black. Just the socks to find now! Things have changed in my ordinary life too, including starting a new school and beginning to enjoy life again!

So, after a long eight month hiatus... I'm back! I hope you'll enjoy my posts! Thank you for reading!

I'll just add day 5 of the 30 day Lolita Challenge on the end of this post!
